The resolution acknowledges that coffee is one of the most consumed beverages in the United States, with more than 400 million cups sold daily, and that the domestic coffee sector supports over 2.2 million jobs and generates $343 billion annually. It celebrates the role of coffee growers, roasters, retailers, and researchers across the country and emphasizes the importance of domestic farms in Hawai‘i and Puerto Rico to the specialty market. The House designates September 29, 2025 as National Coffee Day to honor this contribution. The resolution urges efforts to strengthen both domestic and global coffee supply chains, including investment in agricultural research, climate resilience, and farmer livelihoods. It encourages continued scientific study of coffee’s health effects and supports trade policies that remove tariffs on imported coffee to protect American jobs and maintain stable consumer access. By recognizing coffee’s economic, cultural, and national security significance, the House aims to promote broad-based development in coffee‑growing countries and sustain U.S. trade partnerships.
