Senate of Pennsylvania
Session of 2015 - 2016 Regular Session

MEMORANDUM

Posted: January 28, 2016 12:27 PM
From: Senator Rob Teplitz
To: All Senate members
Subject: Resolution - USO 75th Anniversary
 
In the near future, I plan on introducing a resolution designating the month of February 2016 as “USO Month” in recognition of the 75th Anniversary of the USO and its mission to enhance the quality of life of military members and their families.

The United Service Organizations (USO) was founded in 1941 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and has worked in collaboration with the Department of Defense in fulfilling its mission of lifting the spirits of America’s troops and their families with collaboration, accountability, respect, gratitude and innovation for 75 years.

With the generous donations of volunteers and contributors, the USO now serves thousands of troops at hundreds of entertainment events each year and through an extensive range of programs and services at more than 160 locations in 27 states and 14 countries.

Please join me in co-sponsoring this resolution designating the month of February 2016 as “USO Month” in Pennsylvania and expressing our support and gratitude for the selfless service and sacrifice of members of the Armed Forces of the United States and for the work of the United Service Organizations.
