House Resolution No. ___, introduced by Representative Travis Johnson, designates April 15, 2024, as Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Day at the state capitol in recognition of the fraternity's 118th anniversary. Founded in 1906 at Cornell University, Alpha Phi Alpha is the first intercollegiate Greek letter fraternity for African American men, dedicated to developing leaders, promoting brotherhood, and advocating for social justice. The fraternity has played a significant role in addressing educational, economic, and political injustices faced by African Americans and has been actively involved in the civil rights movement.

The resolution highlights the fraternity's commitment to community service through various programs, including the "Go-To-High-School, Go-To-College" campaign and voter registration initiatives. It acknowledges the contributions of notable members, such as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and recognizes the impact of Alpha Phi Alpha in Louisiana, where it has numerous chapters. The House of Representatives expresses its best wishes for the fraternity's continued success and influence in promoting service to humanity.
