Supporting the designation of June as Family Month.
Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
This resolution expresses the House of Representatives view that June should be designated as "Family Month" and states the House no longer recognizes Pride Month. It is a statement by the House only and does not create or change federal law. It does not bind the Senate or the President and does not impose legal requirements on individuals or agencies.
As a simple House resolution, it would need approval only from the House to be adopted and is not sent to the President. Adoption requires a House vote or unanimous consent and the resolution is non-binding.
This House resolution declares June should be designated “Family Month,” emphasizes the importance of the traditional nuclear family, and states that the House should no longer recognize Pride Month.
The resolution presents several findings linking marriage stability to social outcomes and criticizes Pride Month and related displays.
It is a non‑binding, symbolic House resolution expressing the chamber's view, not creating law or federal programs.
Nonbinding, symbolic House resolution with polarizing content; may pass House if leadership prioritizes it but unlikely to become bicameral law or be adopted broadly.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill is a straightforward symbolic resolution: it clearly states its purpose and rationale but provides little in the way of implementation detail, fiscal analysis, legal integration, or accountability mechanisms.
Progressives emphasize exclusion and civil‑rights harms to LGBTQ+ people.

Why the argument around this bill splits.

Likely strongly opposed.
They will view the resolution as exclusionary toward LGBTQ+ people and as stigmatizing legally protected communities.
They will object to the resolution’s factual claims about Pride Month and family decline and see it as a political statement, not constructive policy.
Mixed reaction.
They may agree with stronger support for families but worry about the resolution’s antagonistic language toward Pride Month and lack of policy detail.
They will prefer inclusive, evidence‑based approaches that support families without singling out or erasing other communities.
Generally supportive.
They will welcome reaffirmation of traditional nuclear family values and the call to stop officially recognizing Pride Month.
Many will see the resolution as correcting cultural priorities and defending marriage.
