  Whereas, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc., founded in 1911 at Howard University, is a historically Black fraternity grounded in the principles of manhood, scholarship, perseverance, and uplift;
and   Whereas, for well over a century, the fraternity has demonstrated a consistent commitment to leadership, academic excellence, civic engagement, and community service;

and   Whereas, its members have played a meaningful role in the fields of education, public service, and youth mentorship, as well as in the formation of initiatives that strengthen and uplift underserved communities;
and   Whereas, gratefully, the House of Representatives congratulates Omega Psi Phi Fraternity at the celebration of its one hundred fifteenth anniversary and salutes the organization for its enduring legacy of service and its positive impact on the people of South Carolina and our great nation.
Now, therefore,   Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
  That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, declare March 25, 2026, as "Omega Day at the South Carolina Capitol," congratulate Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc.
at the celebration of its one hundred fifteenth anniversary, and honor the organization for its worthy heritage and many accomplishments.
  Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
