U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) has joined U.S. Senators Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) in a resolution to designate November 17, 2024, as National Warrior Call Day. This resolution passed the Senate unanimously yesterday. The bipartisan resolution emphasizes the need for all Americans to reach out and build meaningful relationships with those currently serving and veterans who have served. These relationships aim to help fight mental illness and combat the epidemic of suicide among military and veteran communities.

"As the son of a World War II veteran, I know firsthand the challenges that many of those who serve can face," said Senator Tuberville. "I am determined to make sure that both those who are currently serving and those who have served our country have the resources and support they need to live long, healthy, meaningful lives. I was proud to see it unanimously pass the Senate last night."
