A resolution designating July 2026 as "American Grown Flower...

This bill, SR822, proposes to designate July 2026 as "American Grown Flower and Foliage Month." The main purpose is to recognize and celebrate the flower and foliage industry in the United States. This includes the many people involved in growing, cultivating, and selling flowers and foliage across the country.

While the bill itself does not impose new regulations or laws, it serves to highlight the importance of the industry and its contribution to the economy and culture. It would primarily affect the flower and foliage industry, including farmers, growers, and sellers, by bringing attention to their work and the value they provide.

The bill was introduced on July 30, 2026, and was considered and approved in the Senate without any amendments. This means it has passed its first step in the legislative process. If it continues to progress, it could become a formal recognition in July 2026.
