WASHINGTON — Senator John Hoeven announced that the Senate passed a bipartisan resolution he introduced to designate Nov. 2, 2019, as National Bison Day.
The resolution recognizes the national mammal, the North American bison, and its ecological, cultural and historic contributions.
Hoeven introduced the bipartisan National Bison Legacy Act which was signed into law in 2016. The legislation designated the bison as the United States’ national mammal and recognized its significance in American history.
