Referred to the Committee on Armed Services. (text: CR S1781)
A Senate resolution honoring the 108th anniversary of Selfridge Air National Guard Base, recounting its history, community and economic contributions, and national security roles.
It commends personnel, highlights past units and awards, notes a 12 KC–46A beddown selection, and urges continued cooperation and investment with the Department of Defense and the State of Michigan.
S.Res. is non‑binding, chamber‑specific, and does not create law; adoption within the Senate is likely but it will not become statute.
Relative to its intended legislative type, this bill functions as a conventional commemorative Senate resolution: it provides historical context, expresses formal recognition, and issues nonbinding commendations and encouragements without creating legal obligations or allocating resources.
