Key Points

  • This resolution officially names July 10, 2025, as a day to honor the men and women who work on electrical power lines. These workers, called journeyman lineworkers, are responsible for keeping electricity flowing to homes, hospitals, and businesses 24 hours a day.
  • The date honors the memory of Henry Miller, the first president of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. He died 129 years ago while working to fix a power outage in Washington, D.C.
  • The Senate passed this measure to recognize the bravery of lineworkers who often work in dangerous conditions, like hurricanes and wildfires, to restore power. It encourages people across the country to recognize the hard work and risks these professionals take every day.
