Sponsored by Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO), the resolution notes several historical firsts for women at the Air Force Academy and “commends the extraordinary accomplishments of the women cadets and graduates of the United States Air Force Academy…and the service to the United States of those cadets and graduates.”
