This concurrent resolution seeks to express congressional support for the recognition of March 10, 2025, as "Abortion Provider Appreciation Day." This day is intended to celebrate the courage, compassion, and high-quality care that abortion providers and their staff offer to patients and their communities. The date, March 10, was chosen in honor of Dr. David Gunn, who was tragically killed on that day in 1993, marking the first known murder of an abortion provider. The resolution highlights the essential role of these providers, especially in the context of increased restrictions and the overturning of Roe v. Wade by the Dobbs decision , which has severely impacted abortion access across many states. Congress would laud communities that host these providers, affirm its commitment to ensuring their safety and the ability to provide care, and condemn actions by the Supreme Court and antiabortion extremists that limit and stigmatize abortion care. Ultimately, the resolution declares a vision for a future free from abortion restrictions, where everyone has full access to necessary care without fear of penalty or stigma.
