Introduced Feb 12, 2026
This joint resolution has been introduced in the House of Representatives and referred to the House Committee on Armed Services. For it to advance, the committee must approve it, after which it could be voted on by the full House. If passed by the House, it would then move to the Senate for their consideration. If both chambers pass it in identical form, it would be presented to the President to be signed into law or vetoed.
If this resolution passes, the most direct impact would be symbolic, raising public awareness about the historical contributions and sacrifices of the Army Nurse Corps. It would serve as an official congressional commendation, reinforcing national appreciation for military healthcare professionals and their vital role in supporting the armed forces throughout history.
