The Senate designated November 16, 2025 as National Warrior Call Day, encouraging Americans — especially fellow service members and veterans — to call a warrior, have an honest conversation, and connect them with support. The resolution cites 523 military suicides in 2023 and 6,407 veteran suicides in 2022, noting that the veteran suicide rate is 10.5% higher than among non-veteran adults. It highlights that many veterans who die by suicide have had no contact with the VA, and points to isolation, traumatic brain injury, PTSD, and depression as contributing factors.
