This resolution recognizes September 20, 2025, as National LGBTQ+ Servicemembers and Veterans Day and celebrates the contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer servicemembers and veterans who have served in the Armed Forces. Additionally, the resolution (1) regrets the harm done to such servicemembers and veterans under policies that discriminate based on sexual orientation and gender identity, and (2) urges the Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense to ensure transgender veterans and servicemembers and their families have access to a full range of health care.
