California SJR14 urges Congress to award a Congressional Gold Medal to World War II Army and Navy nurses.
California SJR14 urges the U.S. Congress to honor World War II Army and Navy nurses with a Congressional Gold Medal. These nurses provided critical medical care in combat zones, aboard hospital ships, and on evacuation aircraft, often under fire and in extreme conditions. Despite their valor, many served without full military status, equal pay, or veteran benefits. The resolution supports Senate Bill 2195 and House of Representatives Bill 4901, introduced by Senators Tammy Baldwin, Steve Daines, and Ben Ray Luján, and Representatives Elise Stefanik, Christopher Deluzio, and Jen Kiggans.
