Original Resolution Honoring Harriet Tubman
Sponsored By: Representative Green, Al [D-TX-9]
Introduced
Summary
Honoring Harriet Tubman’s life and leadership. The resolution acknowledges Tubman’s courage as an escaped enslaved person and her work as a conductor on the Underground Railroad. It notes she led 13 missions that rescued approximately 70 people, served as a scout, spy, and nurse for the Union Army, and became the first woman to plan and lead a U.S. military operation. It highlights her leadership in the Combahee River Raid that freed about 700 people and her postwar activism for human rights and women’s suffrage. *This resolution is purely ceremonial and authorizes no spending or new programs, so it has no federal fiscal impact.*
