Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
This resolution expresses the House's support for designating May 14, 2026, as National Scam Survivor Day and urges increased public awareness, support for survivors, and coordination among government and non-government groups. It does not create new legal rights or obligations and does not change Federal law. In practice, it is a formal expression of the House's views and encouragements, not a binding rule.
This is a simple House resolution introduced and considered only in the House of Representatives; it would be adopted by a majority vote in the House, is not presented to the President, and does not have the force of law.
This House resolution supports designating May 14, 2026, as "National Scam Survivor Day." It cites rising scam losses and evolving scam methods (social media, cryptocurrency, AI deepfakes), highlights vulnerable groups, and encourages public awareness, use of federal resources, law enforcement action, and collaboration among government, private, and nonprofit actors.
The resolution is symbolic and contains no binding spending or regulatory provisions.
As a nonbinding House resolution it is likely to pass the House but not create law; becoming a formal law would require additional Senate action uncommon for symbolic days.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill functions as a typical commemorative resolution: it clearly defines and justifies a designated day and urges awareness and cooperative action but does not assert binding mechanisms, funding, or statutory changes.
Liberals want stronger enforcement and funding; conservatives fear federal expansion.

Overall supportive as a consumer-protection and public-awareness measure.
Sees value in recognizing victims and encouraging coordination among agencies and nonprofits, but may view it as insufficient without stronger enforcement or funding for prevention efforts.
Generally favorable as a low-cost, noncontroversial awareness resolution.
Values the focus on measurable outreach and law enforcement collaboration, while wanting clarity on implementation and cost implications of any follow-up efforts.
Likely supportive of the symbolic designation and law-enforcement emphasis, but cautious about language encouraging federal expansion.
Favors private-sector collaboration and targeted enforcement over new bureaucratic programs.
