Senate Resolution 291, sponsored by Oliver, honors United States Congresswoman Maxine Waters and the Nashville Branch of the NAACP in recognition of their contributions to civil rights and community advocacy. Congresswoman Waters is set to be the keynote speaker at the 2026 Freedom Fund Banquet, an event celebrating 106 years of the NAACP's efforts in promoting justice, equity, and civil rights. The banquet will gather community leaders and supporters to reflect on past achievements and renew their commitment to ongoing advocacy.

The proceeds from the Freedom Fund Banquet will support the NAACP Nashville Branch's initiatives focused on education, economic empowerment, and civic engagement in Middle Tennessee. The resolution expresses commendation for both Congresswoman Waters and the Nashville Branch, wishing them success for the upcoming event, which promises to be an inspiring evening featuring Waters' insights from her extensive public service career.
