Commemorates the signing of the U.S. Constitution on September 17, 1787 and recognizes Constitution Day observances. The resolution praises foundational American values (rule of law, democracy, liberty, equality, unalienable rights), celebrates national diversity using the motto “E pluribus unum,” honors a range of historical figures and speeches, and lists several historic flags as symbols of U.S. history. The measure is purely ceremonial: it contains no legal changes, funding, mandates, or deadlines and does not amend the U.S. Code.
