SCR 24, Alvarado-Gil. Rosie the Riveter Day.

This measure would recognize the day of March 21, 2025, as Rosie the Riveter Day.

Fiscal Committee: NO

WHEREAS, Rosie the Riveter Day is celebrated on March 21 each year in honor of the cultural icon that represented the hardworking women who supported the American war effort during World War II; and

WHEREAS, Rosie the Riveter symbolized the millions of women who entered the workforce to replace male workers who were fighting in the war; and

WHEREAS, These women worked in factories and shipyards, building airplanes, tanks, and other supplies that were essential to the war effort, and their contributions not only helped win the war but also paved the way for women’s rights and opportunities in the workplace; and

WHEREAS, Rosie the Riveter Day celebrates the courage, strength, and determination of these women and serves as a reminder of their important role in American history; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate of the State of California, the Assembly thereof concurring, That the Legislature recognizes the day of March 21, 2025, as Rosie the Riveter Day to encourage people to recognize and honor the achievements of women in the workforce and to continue to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment; and be it further

Resolved, That the Secretary of the Senate transmit copies of this resolution to the author for appropriate distribution.
