This resolution formally recognizes the commencement of Ramadan , the Muslim holy month of fasting and spiritual renewal, and commends Muslims globally and within the United States for their faith. It highlights the significant population of Muslims worldwide and in the U.S., emphasizing Ramadan's purpose of spiritual growth and understanding the plight of the less fortunate. The resolution acknowledges the substantial contributions of American Muslims to charitable organizations, various professions, and public service, noting their racial diversity. It also points to a history of governmental recognition, including White House iftars since 1805, and similar events hosted by the Department of State, USDA, and the Pentagon, which also celebrates Muslim service members. Ultimately, the House of Representatives declares its solidarity with and support for the Muslim community by recognizing the Islamic faith as one of the world's great religions. It expresses profound respect to Muslims in the United States and throughout the world in observance of Ramadan's onset.
