This resolution expresses support for designating the week of June 29 through July 4, 2026, as National Tire Safety Week, an observance that dates back to 1938. It notes that Americans drove more than 3.3 trillion miles on tires in 2025 and highlights the safety risks of underinflated, overinflated, or worn tires, including reduced gas mileage, poor handling, and increased chances of blowouts or hydroplaning. The resolution encourages drivers to regularly check tire pressure, tread depth, and overall condition, and to follow manufacturer guidance on rotation and alignment. It calls on Americans to participate in Tire Safety Week activities and learn more about basic tire maintenance. Like other awareness-week resolutions, it creates no new laws or funding — it's a formal statement encouraging public education.
