A RESOLUTION recognizing September 17 to 23, 2025, as Constitution Week in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
Summary
HR91 is a simple House resolution that recognizes September 17 through September 23, 2025, as Constitution Week in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The resolution recites the historical importance of the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the 1787 Constitutional Convention, and it frames the observance as a way for Kentuckians to reflect on the nation’s founding principles, including liberty, equality under law, and limited government.
The measure does not create a new program, impose duties on agencies, or amend any Kentucky statutes. Its operative effect is ceremonial: it formally designates a commemorative week and directs the House Clerk to transmit a copy of the resolution to Representative Felicia Rabourn. The resolution also acknowledges the Daughters of the American Revolution, specifically the John Guill-Polly Hawkins Craig Chapter, for hosting Constitution Week celebrations.
Impact
HR91 has no substantive regulatory or fiscal impact on state law. It does not alter the Kentucky Revised Statutes, create enforcement mechanisms, or affect private rights or obligations. Its legal effect is limited to an official legislative recognition of Constitution Week and a symbolic endorsement of educational and patriotic observances tied to the U.S. Constitution.
Sentiment
The sentiment around the bill appears uniformly positive and ceremonial. The resolution uses strongly supportive language about the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the nation’s founding, and it expresses appreciation for the Daughters of the American Revolution’s role in promoting the observance. No votes, committee discussion, or recorded opposition are provided, and nothing in the text suggests controversy within the chamber.
Contention
There is no evident substantive contention in the available materials. Because the resolution is commemorative and nonbinding, it is unlikely to have generated policy disputes. Any potential disagreement would more likely be about symbolic resolutions generally rather than the specific subject matter, but no such objections, amendments, or dissent are shown in the bill text or context.
