Whereas the profession of linemen is steeped in personal, 
family, and professional tradition; 
Whereas linemen are often first responders during storms 
and other catastrophic events, working to make the scene 
safe for other public safety heroes; 
Whereas linemen must work high atop powerlines 24 hours 
a day, 365 days a year, to keep electricity flowing; 
Whereas linemen play a vital role in the Nation’s economy by 
maintaining and growing the energy infrastructure of the 
United States; 
Whereas linemen must often work under dangerous condi-
tions separated from their families to keep schools and 
businesses open; 
Whereas linemen deserve recognition from the community re-
garding the danger of their work; and 
Whereas, April 18, 2025, would be an appropriate date to 
designate as ‘‘National Lineman Appreciation Day’’: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 1
(1) recognizes the efforts of linemen in keeping 2
the power on and protecting public safety; 3
(2) supports the designation of ‘‘National Line-4
man Appreciation Day’’; and 5
(3) recognizes linemen as first responders. 6
