Summary — Senate Resolution 112 (SR 112)

Note on source material
- The documents provided appear to contain multiple different resolutions all labeled “SR 112” from several jurisdictions and on disparate subjects (examples include: an Idaho Senate resolution commemorating Patrick Henry’s 250th anniversary speech; a Kentucky confirmation of a university trustee; Georgia and Illinois commemorative/resolution texts; and a Hawaii study request on CEO-to-worker pay). These are separate instruments from different legislatures that share the same short identifier. The summary below focuses on the primary resolution text included under the heading “LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF IDAHO … SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 112,” which is the adopted Idaho Senate resolution visible in the materials. If you intended a different SR 112 (different state or subject), please tell me which one and I will summarize that specific resolution.

Purpose and intent
- SR 112 (Idaho) commemorates and honors the 250th anniversary of Patrick Henry’s March 23, 1775 speech at the Second Virginia Convention (the speech that contains the phrase “Give me liberty or give me death!”).
- The resolution affirms the historical significance of Henry’s address in inspiring the American struggle for independence and reaffirms the enduring principles of liberty, civic engagement, and self‑governance.

Key provisions and actions
- States the Senate’s findings about the historical importance of Patrick Henry’s speech and its role in fostering American independence and civic ideals.
- Formally “commemorates the 250th anniversary” of the March 23, 1775 speech and “honors its enduring significance in American history.”
- Reaffirms the Senate’s commitment to preserving, teaching, and promoting the principles of liberty, justice, and civic participation Henry emphasized.
- Directs the Secretary of the Senate to transmit duly certified copies of the resolution to:
- The Governor of Idaho,
- The Idaho State Historical Society, and
- The America250 in Idaho Advisory Council (to further recognition of the occasion).

Affected parties / impact
- The resolution is ceremonial and symbolic in nature. It has no regulatory effect or ongoing programmatic requirements.
- Intended beneficiaries are the general public and historical/educational institutions that may use the commemoration to promote teaching and public reflection on American independence and civic values.

Fiscal and procedural notes
- A fiscal note attached to the materials states the commemoration has no fiscal impact.
- Legislative history provided indicates the resolution was considered and adopted during the 2025 session of the Idaho Legislature and copies were directed to be transmitted to the named recipients. (Because multiple SR 112 documents from different states were included, consult the official Idaho legislative website or the Secretary of the Senate for the authoritative bill file and exact dates of readings, adoption, and enrollment.)

Bottom line
- Idaho SR 112 is a non‑binding, commemorative Senate resolution marking the 250th anniversary of Patrick Henry’s 1775 speech, reaffirming the Senate’s recognition of its historical importance, and directing distribution of certified copies to state historical partners. It carries no fiscal obligations.
