A resolution designating July 2025 as National Anti-Counterfeiting and Consumer Education and Awareness Month

YourVoice.Now Summary

The Senate set aside July 2025 to warn people about fake goods — no new rules or money.

The details

Most people see no change in daily life. The Senate named July 2025 as National Anti-Counterfeiting and Consumer Education and Awareness Month. Senators agreed to it on July 17, 2025, and that month has since passed. A resolution like this one never becomes law. No money is spent, and no new program starts. The Senate backed the idea of teaching people how to spot fake goods. The resolution cites government and industry figures to make its case. One is the 60 million fake pills laced with fentanyl that the DEA seized in 2024. Another is the more than $200 billion a year that counterfeits cost U.S. businesses. Nothing in the text requires any agency to act on those numbers.
