in effect
Proclamation 10988 is a ceremonial presidential proclamation designating the week of November 2–8, 2025, as “Anti-Communism Week” in the United States. It was signed by President Donald J. Trump on November 7, 2025, and published in the Federal Register on November 13, 2025. Proclamations of this type are symbolic declarations and do not carry the force of law or create legally binding obligations.
This proclamation creates no new law, regulation, funding, program, or enforcement mechanism. It designates a specific one-week period (November 2–8, 2025) as a named observance on the federal calendar. The week had already passed by the time the proclamation appeared in the Federal Register, so the designation is retrospective in practice. No deadlines, reporting requirements, or agency actions are established by the document. Its effect is limited to the official naming of that week for commemorative and rhetorical purposes.
No specific individuals, organizations, or government agencies are directed to take any action under this proclamation. Federal agencies are not required to hold events, issue guidance, or alter operations as a result. Members of the public are not subject to any new rights, duties, or restrictions arising from this document.
