Recognizing the importance of pollinators to ecosystem health and agriculture in the United States by designating June 15 through June 22, 2025, as "National Pollinator Week".

YourVoice.Now Summary

This resolution supports designating the week of June 15–22, 2025, as National Pollinator Week, recognizing that pollinators — bees, butterflies, birds, bats, and beetles — are essential to agriculture and ecosystem health. Pollinators help reproduce at least 80% of flowering plants and contribute over $18 billion to U.S. crop production annually. The resolution draws attention to dramatic population declines: the Western monarch butterfly has dropped from nearly 10 million in the 1980s to fewer than 2,000 in 2020, and nearly 70 native pollinator species are listed as threatened or endangered.
