What this bill would do

This bill is cited as the Anti-Communism Week Act. It designates November 2 through November 8 as Anti-Communism Week. The bill includes findings from Congress about the devastation caused by communism and the loss of life under regimes that sought to erase faith and suppress freedom. It requests that the President issue a yearly proclamation calling on the people of the United States to observe this week with appropriate ceremonies and activities. The legislation also amends chapter 1 of title 36, United States Code, to officially add this designation.
