Summary

What This Bill Does

This House Resolution expresses support for designating the first Saturday in May as National Lowrider Day. It formally recognizes lowrider culture as an important part of American history and heritage, acknowledging the contributions of lowrider builders, artists, families, and car clubs who have kept this tradition alive for generations.

Who Benefits and How

Lowrider builders, artists, families, and clubs benefit from official Congressional recognition of their cultural contributions. Hispanic and Latino communities, particularly in the American Southwest, gain acknowledgment of a cultural tradition that has often faced discrimination. Cultural heritage organizations and automotive enthusiasts gain legitimacy and visibility for lowrider events and educational programs.

Who Bears the Burden and How

This is a non-binding ceremonial resolution with no regulatory or spending requirements. No groups face new costs, compliance burdens, or restrictions. The resolution simply calls upon government entities to support lowrider culture through events and education, but imposes no mandates.
