Honors the memory of the Jewish people who were victims of the Holocaust and recognizes the bravery of survivors who have shared their stories with the world. Honors the memory of the millions of additional people, including prisoners of war, ethnic Poles, Romani people, Serbian civilians, people with disabilities, political opponents and dissenters, people labeled as asocial, Jehovah's Witnesses, gay, bisexual, and transgender people, and Black Germans, who were persecuted and murdered by the Nazi state and their collaborators. Expresses gratitude for the soldiers, resistance fighters, and all those who helped defeat the Nazi regime and end the Holocaust.

Expresses gratitude for the American forces that liberated the Buchenwald concentration camp on April 11, 1945, and who would go on that month to liberate concentration camps at Dachau, Dora-Mittelbau, and Flossenburg before liberating Mauthausen in early May 1945. Urges all Illinoisans to commit to learning about the Holocaust in order to ensure that such atrocities are never perpetrated again.
