Recognizing the importance of pollinators to ecosystem health and agriculture in the United States by designating June 15 through June 22, 2025, as "National Pollinator Week".

Key Points

• This resolution names June 15 through June 22, 2025, as National Pollinator Week. It aims to raise awareness about how bees, butterflies, birds, and other animals help grow food and keep nature healthy.
• Pollinators are responsible for about 80 percent of flowering plants and add over $18 billion to the U.S. economy every year. They are essential for more than 100 different types of crops that Americans eat.
• Many pollinator species are in trouble. For example, the American bumble bee population has dropped by 90 percent and Western monarch butterflies have seen a massive decline since the 1980s.
• The resolution encourages people to celebrate the week with educational activities and conservation efforts. It also states that the House of Representatives plans to keep working on protecting these animals and their habitats.
