Support for the designation of the week of June 29 through July 4, 2026, as "National Tire Safety Week" in the United States, and supporting the goals and ideals of National Tire Safety Week to educate American motorists about the importance of proper tire care and maintenance.

This resolution expresses support for designating the week of June 29 through July 4, 2026, as "National Tire Safety Week" in the United States. It aims to educate American motorists on the critical importance of proper tire care and maintenance. The initiative, first recognized in 1938, seeks to raise awareness and ultimately reduce tire-related injuries and fatalities on the road. The resolution highlights that tires are highly engineered safety devices requiring regular attention, including checking tire pressure monthly, inspecting tread depth , and looking for visual damage. It emphasizes that underinflation and excessive wear can lead to control difficulties, reduced gas mileage, and increased accident risk. Proper maintenance, such as rotation and balancing, is crucial for safety, performance, and tire longevity, helping to prevent punctures and hydroplaning. The House of Representatives strongly supports the goals of this week and efforts to reduce tire-related accidents. It encourages the people of the United States to participate in National Tire Safety Week events and educate themselves and others on the importance of regularly inspecting and maintaining their vehicle's tires.
