1st Session
H. RES. 187
Supporting the designation of February 2023 as ``Hawaiian Language
Month'' or ```Olelo Hawai'i Month''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
February 28, 2023
Ms. Tokuda (for herself and Mr. Case) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Education and the
Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the designation of February 2023 as ``Hawaiian Language
Month'' or ```Olelo Hawai'i Month''.
Whereas the Hawaiian language, or `Olelo Hawai`i--
(1) is the Native language of Native Hawaiians, the aboriginal,
Indigenous people who--
G (A) settled the Hawaiian archipelago as early as 300 A.D., over
which they exercised sovereignty; and
G (B) over time, founded the Kingdom of Hawai`i; and
(2) was once widely spoken by Native Hawaiians and non-Native Hawaiians
throughout the Kingdom of Hawai`i, which held one of the highest literacy
rates in the world prior to the illegal overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawai`i
in 1893 and the establishment of the Republic of Hawai`i;
Whereas the Republic of Hawai`i enacted a law in 1896 effectively banning school
instruction in `Olelo Hawai`i, which led to the near extinction of the
language by the 1980s, when fewer than 50 fluent speakers under 18 years
old remained;
Whereas, since the 1960s, Native Hawaiians have led a grassroots revitalization
of their Native language, launching a number of historic initiatives,
including--
(1) `Aha Punana Leo's Hawaiian language immersion preschools;
(2) the Hawaiian language immersion program of the Hawai`i State
Department of Education; and
(3) the Hawaiian language programs of the University of Hawai`i system;
and
Whereas the Hawaiian language revitalization movement inspired systemic Native
language policy reform, including--
(1) the State of Hawai`i recognizing `Olelo Hawai`i as an official
language in the Constitution of the State of Hawai`i in 1978;
(2) the State of Hawai`i removing the 90-year ban on teaching `Olelo
Hawai`i in public and private schools in 1986;
(3) the enactment of the Native American Languages Act (25 U.S.C. 2901
et seq.) in 1990, which established the policy of the United States to
preserve, protect, and promote the rights and freedom of Native Americans
to use, practice, and develop Native American languages; and
(4) the State of Hawai`i designating the month of February as ```Olelo
Hawai`i Month'' to celebrate and encourage the use of the Hawaiian
language: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of ``Hawaiian Language Month''
or ```Olelo Hawai`i Month'';
(2) commits to preserving, protecting, and promoting the
use, practice, and development of `Olelo Hawai`i in alignment
with the Native American Languages Act (25 U.S.C. 2901 et
seq.); and
(3) urges the people of the United States and interested
groups to celebrate `Olelo Hawai`i with appropriate activities
and programs to demonstrate support for `Olelo Hawai`i.

H. RES. 188
Condemning Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
February 28, 2023
Mr. Waltz (for himself, Ms. Tenney, Mrs. Boebert, Mr. Zinke, Mr.
Steube, Mr. Higgins of Louisiana, Mrs. Miller of Illinois, Mr. Posey,
Mr. Collins, and Mr. Santos) submitted the following resolution; which
was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Condemning Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg.
Whereas the Department of Transportation was established by an Act of Congress
on October 15, 1966;
Whereas Pete Buttigieg serves as the 19th Secretary of Transportation under
President Biden, having been sworn in on February 3, 2021;
Whereas the mission of the Department of Transportation to deliver the world's
leading transportation system, serving the American people and economy
through safe, efficient, sustainable, and equitable movements of people
and goods;
Whereas, during Secretary Pete Buttigieg tenure, the Department of
Transportation failed to mitigate or effectively respond to multiple
national crises;
Whereas Secretary Pete Buttigieg's ineptitude has jeopardized the safety and
prosperity of the American people;
Whereas, in 2021 and 2022, Secretary Buttigieg was absent during a historical
supply chain crisis when United States ports faced a record backlog of
ships stranded off of United States coasts;
Whereas, in December 2022, under Secretary Buttigieg's watch, more than 15,000
flights were canceled, the worst and most costly single airline
operational disruption in the history of United States aviation;
Whereas Secretary Buttigieg, in 2022, neglected his duties and left the country
to vacation in Portuguese wine country amidst ongoing negotiations of an
impending railroad labor strike, leaving Congress to act in order to
prevent the impending rail workers strike;
Whereas, on January 11, 2023, due to a preventable malfunction in the Notice to
Air Mission's System, the Federal Aviation Administration was forced to
impose the largest nationwide ground stop since the attacks of September
11, 2001;
Whereas Secretary Buttigieg failed to immediately respond to the major economic,
environmental, humanitarian disaster that occurred on February 3, 2023,
when a train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio, spilling toxic chemicals,
forcing residents to evacuate, and the surrounding areas devastated; and
Whereas Secretary Buttigieg has repeatedly demonstrated a gross level of
incompetence and apathy in his role as Secretary of Transportation: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That--
(1) Secretary Pete Buttigieg has failed to keep the
American people safe in his duties as Secretary of
Transportation;
(2) Secretary Pete Buttigieg has failed to ensure goods
flow efficiently through the United States economy;
(3) Secretary Pete Buttigieg has lost the confidence of the
American people; and
(4) Secretary Pete Buttigieg should resign.

<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 189
Requiring foreign state media outlets with credentialed members in the
House news media galleries to comply with the Foreign Agents
Registration Act by prohibiting the admission into such galleries of
reporters and correspondents who are representatives of such outlets
who are not in compliance with the requirements of such Act, and for
other purposes.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Bergman submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Rules
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Requiring foreign state media outlets with credentialed members in the
House news media galleries to comply with the Foreign Agents
Registration Act by prohibiting the admission into such galleries of
reporters and correspondents who are representatives of such outlets
who are not in compliance with the requirements of such Act, and for
other purposes.
Whereas freedom of the press is essential for a functioning democracy, which is
why Congress grants unparalleled access on Capitol Hill to journalists
who are credentialed members of the Congressional Media Galleries;
Whereas there is broad bipartisan agreement, however, that media outlets owned
or controlled by foreign state actors cannot be afforded the same
privileges as traditional media;
Whereas while the extraordinary access inside Capitol Hill granted to
credentialed members of the media helps facilitate accurate reporting to
the American public, it is also the kind of access coveted by foreign
powers seeking sensitive information from inside Congress, and those
with state-sponsored media outlets currently can easily obtain such
access, even if they openly flout United States laws;
Whereas in order to effectively safeguard the national security interests of the
United States, foreign state-sponsored media outlets must be required to
strictly comply with the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938 (FARA)
and other United States laws as a prerequisite for their journalists to
receive credentials in the Congressional Media Galleries;
Whereas several foreign countries with reported histories of spying on
Americans, such as Russia, Qatar, and China, own and control state-
sponsored media outlets whose journalists in recent years have been
credentialed by the House and Senate Media Galleries;
Whereas over the past decade, the People's Republic of China, Russia, and the
State of Qatar have aggressively deployed their espionage forces against
United States Government agencies and government officials, as well as
targeting thousands of United States businesses and Americans perceived
to be opponents or dissidents of their regimes;
Whereas in January and February 2023, for example, the People's Republic of
China brazenly launched a surveillance balloon over the continental
United States, which was part of a repeated pattern by China, and as a
result of China's long history of targeting Americans, the Department of
Justice has indicted dozens of entities affiliated with the Chinese
Government for cyberattacks and surveillance, and the United States
Government in July 2020 took the extraordinary measure of closing the
Chinese Consulate in Houston, Texas, because of espionage operations
being carried out in the Mission;
Whereas despite China's extensive surveillance operations targeting Americans,
media outlets registered as Chinese agents under FARA had over two dozen
journalists who had received credentials from the Congressional Media
Galleries in the 118th Congress, and another 16 journalists received
credentials in the 118th Congress through media outlets reportedly owned
or controlled by senior members of the Chinese Communist Party,
including two journalists who received credentials through the China
News Service, which is not registered under FARA, but which was
designated in June 2020 by the Department of States as a ``foreign
mission'' because the outlet was ``effectively controlled by the Chinese
government'';
Whereas the State of Qatar has reportedly engaged in extensive espionage and
surveillance operations to target American political leaders who have
been up for consideration for top Cabinet positions in both the Trump
and Biden administrations, as well as numerous senior Members of
Congress, and in 2018, for example, Qatari agents reportedly helped
generate multiple high-profile media articles based on hacked materials
to target then-Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Ed Royce
because of his committee's support of the Hamas Sanctions Bill, which
was opposed by the State of Qatar;
Whereas the State of Qatar's state-sponsored media company, Al Jazeera,
reportedly also was deployed to carry out surveillance operations
targeting young pro-Israel activists at several nonprofit organizations
based in Washington, DC;
Whereas despite the State of Qatar's and Al Jazeera's extensive surveillance
operations targeting Americans, at least 136 Al Jazeera journalists
received credentials from the House and Senate Media Galleries in the
118th Congress, dramatically more than the 82 New York Times journalists
who had received such credentials;
Whereas Al Jazeera journalists were afforded the privilege of credentials, even
though the Department of Justice had determined since at least 2018 that
Al Jazeera's parent entity, the Al Jazeera Media Network (AJMN), and its
various subsidiaries qualify as foreign agents of Qatar under FARA, and
in a September 14, 2020, letter, the Department of Justice stated,
``AJMN is an agent of the Government of Qatar under FARA'', and also
stated, ``AJMN and its affiliates are controlled and funded by the
Government of Qatar'' and that the ``Government of Qatar has ultimate
authority through its control of AJMN's Board of Directors and AJMN's
budget [and] exercises ultimate control of AJMN.'';
Whereas in order to preserve the extraordinary access provided to credentialed
journalists in the Congressional Media Galleries, it is imperative to
limit the number of credentials available to reporters affiliated with
any given foreign state-sponsored media outlet;
Whereas journalists with foreign state-sponsored media outlets should only be
eligible to apply for credentials to the Congressional Media Galleries
after they have undergone background checks performed by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation (FBI); and
Whereas this legislation aims to enhance the national security of the United
States by limiting the access of foreign state-sponsored media outlets
to credentials from the House Media Galleries and by requiring the FBI
to perform background checks of journalists with those outlets in order
to be eligible to receive such credentials: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved,
SECTION 1. REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION OF FOREIGN REPORTERS AND
CORRESPONDENTS INTO HOUSE NEWS MEDIA GALLERIES.
Rule VI of the Rules of the House of Representatives is amended by
adding at the end the following new clause:
``4.(a) Under the regulations prescribed under clause 2 or clause
3, a reporter or correspondent who is a representative of a
noncompliant foreign state media outlet shall not be admitted into the
portion of the gallery described in clause 2 or clause 3 (as the case
may be). In this paragraph, a `noncompliant foreign state media outlet'
means a foreign state media outlet which either--
``(1) is not registered as the agent of a foreign principal
under the Foreign Agents Registration Act of 1938, as amended
(22 U.S.C. 611 et seq.) notwithstanding that the outlet is
designated as a foreign mission by the Secretary of State or is
determined by the Attorney General to be an agent of a foreign
principal for purposes of such Act; or
``(2) is registered as the agent of a foreign principal
under such Act but is not otherwise in compliance with the
applicable requirements of such Act.
``(b) Under the regulations prescribed under clause 2 or clause 3,
not more than 10 reporters or correspondents who are representatives of
the same foreign state media outlet, including representatives of any
outlet which is owned or controlled by the same foreign state media
outlet, may be admitted into the portion of the gallery described in
clause 2 or 3 (as the case may be).
``(c) Under the regulations prescribed under clause 2 or clause 3,
a reporter or correspondent who is a representative of a foreign state
media outlet shall not be admitted into the portion of the gallery
described in clause 2 or 3 (as the case may be) unless the reporter or
correspondent certifies to the Speaker that--
``(1) during the 6-month period which ends on the date the
reporter or correspondent is to be admitted, the reporter or
correspondent has undergone a background check conducted by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation; and
``(2) the Federal Bureau of Investigation, on the basis of
the background check, has determined that the admission of the
reporter or correspondent to such portion of the gallery will
not pose a threat to the security of the United States.
``(d) In this clause, the term `foreign state media outlet' means a
media outlet which is owned, funded, or controlled by the government of
a foreign country or instrumentality thereof, a member of the family of
the ruling monarch of a foreign country, or a foreign political
party.''.

H. RES. 19
Acknowledging the role of the United States in El Salvador's civil war
and urging increased United States support for strengthening civil
society, human rights protections, and for humanitarian and development
assistance for El Salvador.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 10, 2023
Mr. Khanna submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committee on
the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the
Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall
within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Acknowledging the role of the United States in El Salvador's civil war
and urging increased United States support for strengthening civil
society, human rights protections, and for humanitarian and development
assistance for El Salvador.
Whereas January 16, 2023, marks the 31st anniversary of the signing of the
Chapultepec Peace Accords which formally ended the 12-year Salvadoran
civil war and established the United Nations Commission on the Truth for
El Salvador (Truth Commission) that was charged with investigating and
reporting to the Salvadoran people on human rights crimes committed by
all sides during the course of the war;
Whereas millions of Salvadorans in El Salvador and in diaspora communities
throughout the United States and world continue to suffer from the
multigenerational impact of the rampant destruction, violence,
displacement, family separation, and trauma that the war inflicted on
the country;
Whereas the United States played a significant role in the civil war through its
extensive military support for the Salvadoran army, and bears a special
moral responsibility to support the Salvadoran people in their continued
efforts to recover from the aftermath of the war;
Whereas Salvadoran Army backed right-wing paramilitary death squads and left-
wing guerrilla groups ravaged the country in a deadly spiral of
political violence throughout the 1970s, with violence continuing to
escalate after General Carlos Romero's seized the Presidency in a
fraudulent election in 1977;
Whereas General Romero was ousted by a civil-military junta in a coup in October
1979, plunging El Salvador into a full-blown civil war;
Whereas, in March 1980, Archbishop of San Salvador and critic of the military
regime Oscar Romero was assassinated under the orders of the Salvadoran
military, while presiding over mass, and the next week the Salvadoran
military fired at the gathering of mourners grieving his death;
Whereas, in December 1980, four American churchwomen were raped and murdered by
members of the Salvadoran National Guard, leading to President Jimmy
Carter's decision to temporarily cut off military aid to El Salvador;
Whereas, in 1980, Salvadoran guerilla military groups formed the Farabundo Marti
National Liberation Front (FMLN), and announced plans for an armed
insurrection, and through a series of coordinated military attacks, the
FMLN seized control of numerous regions of the country and launched a
full-scale attack on the Salvadoran Government on January 10, 1981;
Whereas President Reagan responded to the FMLN's attack by resuming and
increasing military assistance to the Salvadoran Government, including
funding for the formation of the Rapid Deployment Infantry Battalions,
groups later identified by the UN-sponsored Truth Commission as ``the
primary agents of war crimes'';
Whereas, throughout the 1980s, the war between government, guerilla, and
paramilitary forces resulted in systematic human rights violations,
subjecting civilians to torture, mutilation, forced disappearance,
summary executions, indiscriminate bombings, and mass rape, leading to
the brutal killing of more than 75,000 Salvadorans;
Whereas the Truth Commission found that more than 85 percent of the killings,
kidnappings, and torture had been perpetrated by government forces,
which included paramilitaries, death squads, and army units trained by
the United States;
Whereas the largest single massacre of civilians in modern Latin-American
history was carried out on December 11, 1981, when the Salvadoran Army's
counterinsurgency battalion and other military forces occupied the
village of El Mozote, and massacred approximately 1,000 civilians over a
three-day period with guns, machetes, and bayonets, with more than 45
percent of the dead under 12 years old;
Whereas the Atlacatl Battalion which executed the massacre at El Mozote had
completed counterinsurgency training at the United States School of the
Americas, now called the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security
Cooperation (WHINSEC), and a United States military advisor was in
Morazan with a commander of the Atlacatl Battalion during the massacre;
Whereas during the Reagan administration, the United States provided $1-2
million per day in economic aid to the Salvadoran Government and
significant training and equipment to the Salvadoran military, while
deploying United States military personnel to accompany Salvadoran
forces into battle and coordinate closely with the Salvadoran High
Command on important strategic and tactical decisions;
Whereas, on November 16, 1989, six Jesuit priests and faculty members of the
Universidad Centroamericana Jose Simeon Canas (UCA) located in San
Salvador--Father Ignacio Ellacuria, Ignacio Martin-Baro, Segundo Montes,
Amando Lopez, Juan Ramon Moreno, and Joaquin Lopez y Lopez--and
housekeeper Julia Elba Ramos and her daughter, Celina Mariceth Ramos,
were executed by members of the Salvadoran Army;
Whereas, on December 6, 1989, United States Speaker of the House of
Representatives Thomas Foley appointed a Special Task Force on El
Salvador chaired by Representative John Joseph Moakley, to monitor the
Salvadoran Government's investigation into the murders of the Jesuit
priests and two women and to investigate related human rights violations
in El Salvador;
Whereas the Speaker's Task Force on El Salvador concluded that members of the
High Command of the Salvadoran military were responsible for ordering
the murder of the Jesuits and two women and for obstructing the
investigation into these crimes, findings that were later confirmed by
the Truth Commission in 1993;
Whereas the international and Salvadoran outcry in response to the deaths of the
six Jesuits and two women and the subsequent investigations into this
crime served as a catalyst for the United Nations-mediated negotiations
that led to the signing of the 1992 Chapultepec Peace Accords in Mexico
City, marking a formal ending to the civil war;
Whereas the 1992 Chapultepec Peace Accords created a foundational framework for
a more open and democratic society in El Salvador, limiting the mandate
of the Armed Forces to national defense, to help guard against their
historic abuses in internal security matters;
Whereas throughout the course of the war and for years following the formal
ending of the civil war and the failure to implement the transitional
justice reform called for by the Chapultepec Peace Accords, tens of
thousands of Salvadorans migrated to the United States and other
countries around the world to find refuge due to dangerous living
conditions in El Salvador;
Whereas the United States lacked adequate services for the resettlement of
Salvadoran refugees, exacerbating poverty and violence in Salvadoran
refugee communities struggling to build a new life in the United States
and throughout Mexico and Central America;
Whereas the United States deported thousands of Salvadorans to El Salvador
without adequately supporting the Salvadoran authorities to establish
the means and institutions in place to absorb this population while
protecting the safety of Salvadorans;
Whereas after deportation, some of these individuals organized into armed gangs
that continue to threaten El Salvador, Central America, and North
America today; and
Whereas the country of El Salvador continues to be ravaged by the aftermath of
the civil war as political violence continues to threaten the daily
lives of the Salvadoran people: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) urges the President of the United States to formally
acknowledge the involvement of the United States in the
Salvadoran civil war, from 1979-1992;
(2) condemns the atrocities committed by all sides of the
war against civilians and supports transitional justice for the
victims of atrocities to access truth, justice, and measures
for accountability and redress;
(3) urges the Administration to work through
nongovernmental entities in El Salvador to increase investments
in education, violence and gang prevention and rehabilitation,
human rights protection, job creation and job training, and
strengthening civil society and the judicial system;
(4) applauds the Administration's recent extension of
Temporary Protected Status for Salvadorans among other
specified vulnerable populations until June 30, 2024, and urges
the Administration to further extend their Temporary Protected
Status and for Congress to grant longer term protections and a
pathway to citizenship for Temporary Protected Status
beneficiaries and comprehensive immigration reform for the
millions of immigrant families rooted in communities across the
United States;
(5) recognizes the extraordinary contributions of the
Salvadoran community in the United States; and
(6) reaffirms the United States commitment to promoting
democratic governance, peace, stability, human rights, and
economic prosperity in El Salvador, as well as the right of all
people to enjoy the benefits of democratic institutions, the
rule of law, and the freedom of religion, speech, press, and
assembly.

H. RES. 190
Recognizing the national debt as a threat to national security.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Biggs submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on the Budget, and in addition to the Committee on Ways and
Means, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in
each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the
jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the national debt as a threat to national security.
Whereas, in January 2023, the total public debt outstanding was more than
$31,400,000,000,000, resulting in a total interest expense of more than
$717,611,000,000 for fiscal year 2022;
Whereas, in January 2023, the total public debt as a percentage of gross
domestic product was 121.00 percent;
Whereas, in January 2023, the debt owed per citizen was $94,240 and $246,864 per
taxpayer;
Whereas the last balanced Federal budget was signed into law in 1997;
Whereas, in fiscal year 2022, Federal tax receipts totaled $4,896,000,000,000,
but Federal outlays totaled $6,272,000,000,000, leaving the Federal
Government with a 1-year deficit of $1,376,000,000,000;
Whereas every year since the last balanced Federal budget was signed in 1997,
Congress has failed to maintain a fiscally responsible budget and has
typically relied on raising the debt ceiling;
Whereas the House of Representatives failed to pass a balanced budget for fiscal
year 2022 and failed to restore regular order to the legislative process
by not allowing Representatives to offer and debate amendments;
Whereas regular order permits the House of Representatives to separately debate
and adopt all appropriations bills in a timely fashion and facilitates
congressional oversight of Federal spending;
Whereas the Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees project that the
Federal Hospital Insurance Trust Fund will be depleted in 2028;
Whereas the Social Security and Medicare Boards of Trustees project that the
Federal Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund and the Federal
Disability Insurance Trust Fund will be depleted in 2034;
Whereas without a targeted effort to balance the Federal budget, the credit
rating of the United States is certain to continue to fall;
Whereas improvements in the business climate in populous countries, and aging
populations around the world, will likely contribute to higher global
interest rates;
Whereas more than $7,270,000,000,000 of Federal debt is owned by individuals not
located in the United States, including more than $870,000,000,000 of
which is owned by individuals in China;
Whereas China and the European Union are developing alternative payment systems
to weaken the dominant position of the United States dollar as a reserve
currency;
Whereas rapidly increasing interest rates will squeeze all policy priorities of
the United States, including defense policy and foreign policy
priorities;
Whereas, on April 12, 2018, former Secretary of Defense James Mattis warned that
``any Nation that can't keep its fiscal house in order eventually cannot
maintain its military power'';
Whereas, on March 6, 2018, former Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats
warned: ``Our continued plunge into debt is unsustainable and represents
a dire future threat to our economy and to our national security'';
Whereas, on November 15, 2017, former Secretaries of Defense Leon Panetta, Ash
Carter, and Chuck Hagel warned: ``Increase in the debt will, in the
absence of a comprehensive budget that addresses both entitlements and
revenues, force even deeper reductions in our national security
capabilities''; and
Whereas, on September 22, 2011, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
Michael Mullen warned: ``I believe the single, biggest threat to our
national security is debt'': Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes that the national debt is a threat to the
national security of the United States;
(2) realizes that deficits are unsustainable,
irresponsible, and dangerous;
(3) commits to restoring regular order in the
appropriations process; and
(4) commits to addressing the fiscal crisis faced by the
United States.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 191
Expressing support for the designation of September 2023 as ``National
Leading Entertainment and Arts through Diversity Month'' or ``National
LEAD Month'', and empowering underrepresented communities to take the
lead within the entertainment industry.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Ms. Clarke of New York (for herself, Ms. Barragan, Ms. Meng, and Mr.
Castro of Texas) submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of September 2023 as ``National
Leading Entertainment and Arts through Diversity Month'' or ``National
LEAD Month'', and empowering underrepresented communities to take the
lead within the entertainment industry.
Whereas there should be more minority representation on and off the screen, and
in main decision-making roles that advance equity across industries;
Whereas marginalized communities are defined as communities who experience
discrimination and exclusion on the basis of race, gender, sexual
orientation or identity, age, and ability;
Whereas oftentimes, these sectors are erased from conversations, yet their
distinctive perspectives and lived experiences become the basis for more
authentic storytelling;
Whereas women only make up roughly 20 percent of directors and 26 percent of
screenwriters;
Whereas all minority groups make up 25 percent of directors and 25 percent of
screenwriters;
Whereas White film directors are more than twice as likely as minority directors
to helm a film with a budget of $100,000,000 or more;
Whereas roughly 18 percent of films produced by major studios feature LGBT+
stories;
Whereas women over 30 make up 29 percent of female characters and women over 40
make up 16 percent of female characters;
Whereas 12 percent of television series characters are disabled, and most
portrayals are negative;
Whereas it is critical to recognize the social and cultural impact of diversity
on television and the ramifications of underrepresentation;
Whereas allyship campaigns and programs are pivotal to the success of diversity
programs, and yet are currently undervalued in diversity, equity, and
inclusion training;
Whereas diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs are impactful tools for
establishing and maintaining a diverse and motivated workforce;
Whereas 69 percent of executives rate diversity and inclusion as an important
issue;
Whereas corporations identified as more diverse and inclusive are 35 percent
more likely to outperform their competitors;
Whereas diverse management teams lead to 19 percent higher revenues; and
Whereas adequate representation on television has been overlooked for far too
long, and, regardless of industry, we must remain dedicated to
inclusion: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) expresses support for the designation of ``National
Leading Entertainment and Arts through Diversity Month'';
(2) supports the purposes and ideals of National Leading
Entertainment and Arts through Diversity Month, which
emphasizes the importance of increased representation across
the industry;
(3) promotes efforts to increase allyship awareness
campaigns among individuals and organizations in the United
States, specifically within the entertainment industry;
(4) champions diversity, equity, and inclusion programs,
including but not limited to, implicit-bias training, common
ground training, facilitated conversation, cultural
sensitivity, community engagement, and antioppression training
in the entertainment industry;
(5) supports partnerships with organizations focused on
increasing diversity by providing mentorship, granting
scholarships, and committing to creating change; and
(6) encourages the people of the United States to observe
National Leading Entertainment and Arts through Diversity Month
with appropriate awareness programs and campaigns for
underrepresented communities in the entertainment industry.

H. RES. 193
Expressing support for the goals and ideals of ``World Hearing Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 1, 2023
Mr. Thompson of California (for himself and Mr. Fitzpatrick) submitted
the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy
and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the goals and ideals of ``World Hearing Day''.
Whereas the World Health Organization (WHO) has designated March 3 as World
Hearing Day;
Whereas the theme for World Hearing Day 2023 is ``Ear and Hearing Care for
All'';
Whereas approximately 466 million people worldwide, including 34 million
children, have disabling hearing loss;
Whereas the WHO estimates that by 2050 over 900 million people--1 in every 10--
will have disabling hearing loss;
Whereas approximately 48 million Americans have some degree of hearing loss and
people with hearing impairments wait on average 7 years before seeking
help;
Whereas hearing issues are the most common service-connected disability among
American veterans;
Whereas the number of adults in the United States 20 years or older with hearing
loss is expected to increase from 44.1 million in 2020 to 73.5 million
by 2060;
Whereas individuals with mild hearing loss are 3 times more likely to experience
a fall, and falls are the leading cause of fatal injury for Americans
over 65;
Whereas seniors with hearing loss are more likely to develop cognitive problems
and experience cognitive decline up to 40 percent faster than those
without hearing loss;
Whereas untreated hearing loss can lead to depression, anxiety, and social
isolation, especially during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic;
Whereas uneven coverage of and access to hearing technology and services
contribute to significant disparities in hearing care; and
Whereas timely access to diagnosis and treatment for hearing and vestibular
conditions by qualified hearing health care professionals can improve
outcomes and reduce overall cost of care: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of ``World Hearing Day'';
(2) encourages awareness about ways to prevent deafness and
hearing loss and promote ear and hearing care; and
(3) supports efforts to improve access to hearing health
care and technology for all individuals.

Mr. Auchincloss, Mr. Panetta, Ms. Jayapal, Ms. Pingree, and Ms. Lee of
California) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Natural Resources
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the need for the Federal Government to establish a national
biodiversity strategy for protecting biodiversity for current and
future generations.
Whereas the planet is facing an unprecedented biodiversity crisis, largely
driven by human activity;
Whereas recent scientific studies have confirmed human-driven activities are
significantly damaging the Earth's ecosystems by--
(1) altering 75 percent of the area of terrestrial environments and 66
percent of marine environments;
(2) directly exploiting wildlife and plant species;
(3) accelerating climate change, directly harming nature and
exacerbating other threats;
(4) polluting air, land, and water; and
(5) introducing invasive species;
Whereas these studies have shown that human-driven threats have harmed
biodiversity by--
(1) threatening approximately one million species with extinction now
and in the coming decades, including--
G (A) over 40 percent of amphibians;
G (B) 33 percent of corals, sharks, shark relatives, and marine
mammals;
G (C) over 60 percent of cycads and over 30 percent of conifer
trees; and
G (D) about 10 percent of over 5 million insect species; and
(2) causing population sizes of wild species to decline by--
G (A) an average of 68 percent for mammals, birds, fish, amphibians,
and reptiles;
G (B) nearly 3 billion birds in North America since 1970;
G (C) about 50 percent for live corals; and
G (D) an average of over 20 percent overall;
Whereas human activity is accelerating the decline of important economic and
cultural services, with--
(1) the productivity of nearly one-fourth of the land surface reduced;
(2) over one-third of land surface and 75 percent of freshwater
resources devoted to crop or livestock production;
(3) about half a trillion dollars of global crops at risk from
pollinator loss;
(4) one-third of marine fisheries overfished, 60 percent fished at
capacity, and just 7 percent fished below capacity; and
(5) 25 percent of greenhouse gas emissions caused by land clearing,
crops, and fertilization;
Whereas the decline of biodiversity disproportionately impacts indigenous and
other communities that rely on nature for essential services, including
Native Americans and Alaska Natives who offer unique perspectives and
traditional ecological knowledge critical to preserving biodiversity;
Whereas the decline of biodiversity and ecosystem services observed worldwide is
occurring in the United States;
Whereas the United States possesses an abundance and great diversity of species
of fish, wildlife, and plants that are of significant value to the
United States for intrinsic, aesthetic, ecological, educational,
cultural, recreational, economic, and scientific reasons;
Whereas the decline of biodiversity presents a direct threat to the security,
health, and well-being of the people of the United States by causing
economic harm through the loss of valuable ecosystem services such as
zoonotic disease buffering, pollination, water filtration, soil
replenishment, the provision of game species, medicinal products,
recreational opportunities, and others;
Whereas communities of color, low-income communities, Tribal communities, and
other populations that have been systematically and deliberately
targeted for siting environmentally degrading activities, and excluded
from conservation efforts, face disproportionate impacts from
biodiversity loss;
Whereas Federal agencies are tasked with protecting and conserving biodiversity
in the United States and worldwide through a variety of legal and policy
channels;
Whereas there is no coordinating policy to maximize the effectiveness of the
Federal Government's conservation efforts and collaboration with the
States, local governments, Tribes, private landowners, and other
nongovernmental stakeholders;
Whereas the United States should play a leading role on the international stage
in addressing the biodiversity crisis, yet the United States--
(1) is not a party to the Convention on Biological Diversity, the
Convention on Migratory Species, and other relevant international
agreements;
(2) does not issue a periodic national biodiversity outlook, contrary
to most other countries; and
(3) does not have a national biodiversity strategy as part of the
Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem
Services; and
Whereas scientific research highlights essential pathways forward, including--
(1) establishing the effective conservation, restoration, and durable
protection of at least 30 percent of an ecologically representative area of
the Nation's and the world's lands, freshwaters, and oceans by 2030 by
working collaboratively with governments, land owners, fishers, indigenous
peoples, communities, and others;
(2) restoring or rewilding species, degraded habitats, and ensuring
integrity and connectivity of protected areas;
(3) retaining and protecting highly intact ecosystems;
(4) reducing pesticide use to levels no higher than needed for
sustainable, ecologically, and safe food production; and
(5) addressing the threats posed by invasive species: Now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) it is in the national interest for the Federal
Government to establish a national biodiversity strategy to--
(A) ensure the conservation and restoration of the
Nation's biodiversity;
(B) secure and restore the ecosystem services
provided by nature for current and future generations;
(C) deliver on the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals;
(D) set ambitious yet necessary goals for
protecting biodiversity in the coming decades;
(E) promote social equity and justice in the
conservation of the Nation's biodiversity;
(F) coordinate the actions of Federal agencies to
advance the conservation of biodiversity;
(G) promote collaboration among the Federal, State,
and Tribal governments, nongovernmental stakeholders,
civil society, and international cooperation to advance
conservation;
(H) honor the Federal trust obligations to Tribal
nations and Native Americans; and
(I) provide global leadership in addressing the
biodiversity crisis; and
(2) the national biodiversity strategy should include
direction on--
(A) achieving the national goal of conserving at
least 30 percent of United States lands and waters to
protect biodiversity and address climate change by
2030, supporting international efforts to achieve the
same goal on a global scale, and setting other goals
necessary to reduce the threats to biodiversity as
indicated by the best available scientific information;
(B) taking action to protect threatened,
endangered, and at-risk species from further
imperilment or extinction;
(C) climate adaptation and mitigation strategies
for biodiversity conservation, including--
(i) leading international agreements to
combat climate change, including the Paris
Agreement;
(ii) establishing climate refugia and
climate corridors for conservation of species
affected by climate change; and
(iii) the rapid build-out of renewable
energy;
(D) reviewing existing laws, plans, programs, and
strategies that are relevant to addressing threats to
biodiversity to assess how they can contribute to the
objectives of this resolution and, as found necessary,
to recommend new laws, plans, programs, and strategies;
(E) ensuring integration of biodiversity protection
across the activities of the Federal Government,
including foreign policy and foreign assistance;
(F) advancing conservation in collaboration with
the State and Tribal governments and on private lands
through incentives, funding, technical support, and
partnerships;
(G) incorporating indigenous knowledge and
practices to support conservation and biodiversity,
safeguarding the rights and needs of indigenous
peoples, and ensuring fulfillment of the Federal trust
obligations that apply to government decisionmaking
that impacts the interests of Native Americans;
(H) means to ensure equitable access to nature,
inclusive decisionmaking on biodiversity protection,
and just allocations of resources to achieve the goals
of this resolution, including for systematically and
deliberately targeted populations such as communities
of color, low-income communities, and Native-American
communities;
(I) establishing regular monitoring and reporting
on the status of biodiversity, in the Nation and
globally, including a quadrennial assessment reported
to Congress and the American people;
(J) prioritizing programs to identify knowledge
gaps and accelerate research and development of new
conservation solutions across sectors;
(K) assessing and integrating the United States
role in international biodiversity, ecosystem services,
and nature conservation in national security and
foreign policy strategies, including in international
development policies, planning and finance, diplomatic
dialogues, and trade agreements, and advancing global
adoption of and progress towards the ``30x30'' goal;
and
(L) funding existing conservation programs,
developing new funding sources, and reducing subsidies
that harm biodiversity, in amounts commensurate with
the scale of the challenge.

[H. Res. 196 Introduced in House (IH)]
<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 196
Memorializing those impacted by and lost to the COVID-19 pandemic.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 3, 2023
Mr. Stanton (for himself and Ms. Letlow) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Memorializing those impacted by and lost to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Whereas the first Monday in March is recognized as COVID-19 Victims and
Survivors Memorial Day;
Whereas SARS-CoV-2, a novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19 disease (referred
to in this preamble as ``COVID-19''), is a deadly illness that can
transmit from individual to individual;
Whereas, in late 2019, COVID-19 emerged and began to spread throughout the
world, creating a global pandemic that has had a catastrophic impact on
human life, communities in the United States, and the economy of the
United States;
Whereas, in March 2020, communities in every State began to experience increased
death due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and families lost parents, siblings,
children, friends, and neighbors to the virus;
Whereas, beginning in 2020, many across the United States were and continue to
be personally impacted by COVID-19 including mourning their loved ones
or suffering from the long-term health implications of the virus;
Whereas, by the end of February 2023, there had been more than 102,998,000 known
cases of COVID-19 in the United States, and more than 1,113,000 people
tragically lost their lives;
Whereas COVID-19 has had a disproportionate impact on low-income communities and
communities of color, rural and tribal communities, individuals with
disabilities, individuals with weakened immune systems, individuals
experiencing homelessness, and individuals living in congregate
settings, such as long-term care facilities and prisons;
Whereas COVID-19 has harmed the health and wellbeing of veterans, especially
those struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder, by increasing
social isolation and disrupting access to mental health services;
Whereas COVID-19 has harmed the health and wellbeing of children by reducing
access to care and health services, disrupting schooling, increasing
stress on caregivers, and tragically robbing millions of children of a
parent or caregiver;
Whereas the symptoms and severity of COVID-19 can vary dramatically by
individual, and million of survivors are experiencing long-term health
implications of post-acute sequelae SARS-CoV-2 infection;
Whereas public servants, frontline and essential workers, and health care and
public health professionals took selfless actions to protect their
neighbors and communities, support struggling local economies, and find
innovative ways to provide services;
Whereas local, State, Tribal, and Federal Government entities provided critical
support to businesses, communities, and Americans in need; and
Whereas each life lost to COVID-19 and each sacrifice made shall never be
forgotten: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) will memorialize those lost to the COVID-19 pandemic;
(2) recognizes the suffering of those who contracted the
SARS-CoV-2 virus and those who continue to struggle with
ongoing impacts of COVID-19; and
(3) expresses support for the annual designation of
``COVID-19 Victims and Survivors Memorial Day''.

birthday and celebrating its legacy of providing girls with a safe,
inclusive space where they can explore their world, build meaningful
relationships, and have access to experiences that prepare them for a
life of leadership.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 7, 2023
Mrs. Kim of California (for herself, Ms. Wasserman Schultz, Mrs.
Rodgers of Washington, Mrs. Watson Coleman, Mr. Tonko, Mr. Fitzpatrick,
Ms. Williams of Georgia, Mrs. Lee of Nevada, Ms. McCollum, Ms. Mace,
Ms. Lee of California, and Ms. Kaptur) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and
Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing Girl Scouts of the United States of America on its 111th
birthday and celebrating its legacy of providing girls with a safe,
inclusive space where they can explore their world, build meaningful
relationships, and have access to experiences that prepare them for a
life of leadership.
Whereas March 12, 2023, marks the 111th anniversary of Girl Scouts of the United
States of America, the largest and most impactful leadership program for
girls in the world;
Whereas, today, more than 50,000,000 women--trailblazers, visionaries, and
leaders--are Girl Scout alums who have made the world a better place;
Whereas, in July 2023, Girl Scouts will host its triennial convention where more
than 10,000 girls, alums, and supporters from across the movement will
gather to explore, create, and grow alongside thousands of fellow
changemakers, dreamers, and doers;
Whereas, during a time when girls are dealing with the impacts of pandemic-
related learning loss, Girl Scouts offers important out-of-school and
afterschool learning enrichment and skill-building opportunities that
expand their world, allow them to cultivate their talents, and ensure
they can confidently pursue their passions and make the world a better
place;
Whereas, since its beginnings, Girl Scouts has emphasized public service and
civic engagement, and has fostered a sense of community in girls;
Whereas during a time when girls are experiencing increased levels of anxiety,
stress, loneliness, and depression, Girl Scouts continues to provide
community, consistency, and connection for girls and is a safe haven in
all the uncertainty;
Whereas Girl Scouts' commitment to getting girls outdoors, including exciting
summer camp experiences, instills a lifelong appreciation for nature and
the environment, and is more critical than ever as the Nation emerges
from the pandemic;
Whereas at a time when civics education is missing from many schools, Girl
Scouts engages girls of all grade levels in civics programming that
deepens their understanding of democracy and government, prepares them
for a lifetime of civic engagement, and motivates them to take action on
issues that are important to them;
Whereas Girl Scouts offers girls 21st century programming in science,
technology, engineering, and math (STEM), the outdoors,
entrepreneurship, and beyond, helping girls develop invaluable life
skills;
Whereas Gold Award Girl Scouts take on projects that have a measurable and
sustainable impact on a community by assessing a need, designing a
solution, completing a project, and inspiring others to sustain it; and
Whereas, as a member organization of the World Association of Girl Guides and
Girl Scouts, Girl Scouts is part of an international sisterhood of
10,000,000 girls and young women in 152 countries and is committed to
offering girls more opportunities to engage with communities worldwide,
make meaningful global connections, and explore global citizenship: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes Girl Scouts of the United States of America
for 111 years of providing girls with a safe, inclusive, all-
girl space where they can hone their skills and develop
leadership abilities;
(2) congratulates all Girl Scouts who earned the Gold Award
in 2022; and
(3) encourages Girl Scouts of the United States of America
to continue to champion the ambitions, nurture the creativity,
and support the talents of future women leaders.

H. RES. 20
Expressing support for designation of September 2023 as ``Gospel Music
Heritage Month'' and honoring gospel music for its valuable and
longstanding contributions to the culture of the United States.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 10, 2023
Ms. Jackson Lee submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for designation of September 2023 as ``Gospel Music
Heritage Month'' and honoring gospel music for its valuable and
longstanding contributions to the culture of the United States.
Whereas gospel music is a beloved art form unique to the United States, spanning
decades, generations, and races;
Whereas gospel music is one of the cornerstones of the musical tradition of the
United States and has grown beyond its roots to achieve pop-culture and
historical relevance;
Whereas gospel music has spread beyond its geographic origins to touch audiences
around the world;
Whereas the history of gospel music can be traced to multiple and diverse
influences and foundations, including African-American spirituals that
blended diverse elements from African music and melodic influences from
Irish folk songs and hymns, and gospel music ultimately borrowed from
uniquely American musical styles, including ragtime, jazz, and blues;
Whereas that tradition of diversity remains today, as the influence of gospel
music can be found infused in all forms of secular music, including rock
and roll, country, soul, rhythm and blues, and countless other styles;
Whereas the legacy of gospel music includes some of the most memorable voices
and musical pioneers in the history of the United States, such as Thomas
Dorsey, Mahalia Jackson, James Vaughan, Roberta Martin, Virgil Stamps,
Diana Washington, Stamps Quartet, The Highway QCs, The Statesmen, The
Soul Stirrers, Point of Grace, Smokie Norful, Terry Woods, James
Cleveland, Billy Ray Hearns, Rex Humbard, Joe Ligon and The Mighty
Clouds of Joy, Kirk Franklin, V. Michael McKay, Theola Booker, Yolanda
Adams, Edwin and Walter Hawkins, Sandi Patty, The Winans, Kathy Taylor,
Mavis Staples and the Staple Singers, and Brenda Waters, Carl Preacher,
Shirley Joiner of B, C & S;
Whereas many of the biggest names in music emerged from the gospel music
tradition or have recorded gospel music, including Sam Cooke, Al Green,
Elvis Presley, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Little
Richard, Ray Charles, Buddy Holly, Alan Jackson, Dolly Parton, Mariah
Carey, Bob Dylan, and Randy Travis;
Whereas, regardless of their musical styles, those artists and so many more have
turned to gospel music as the source and inspiration for their music,
which has blurred the boundaries between secular and gospel music;
Whereas, beyond its contribution to the musical tradition of the United States,
gospel music has provided a cultural and musical backdrop across all of
mainstream media, from hit television series to major Hollywood motion
pictures, including ``American Idol'', ``Heroes'', ``Dancing with the
Stars'', ``O Brother, Where Art Thou?'', ``Sister Act'', ``The
Preacher's Wife'', ``Evan Almighty'', and more;
Whereas gospel music has a huge audience around the country and around the
world, a testament to the universal appeal of a historical American art
form that both inspires and entertains across racial, ethnic, religious,
and geographic boundaries; and
Whereas September 2023 would be an appropriate month to designate as ``Gospel
Music Heritage Month'': Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the
designation of ``Gospel Music Heritage Month'', which would recognize
the contributions to the culture of the United States derived from the
rich heritage of gospel music and gospel music artists.

RESOLUTION
Condemning the horrific shootings that occurred in Monterey Park,
California, on January 21, 2023, and in Half Moon Bay, California, on
January 23, 2023, honoring the memory of the victims of the attacks,
expressing condolences and support to all those impacted by these
tragedies, and reaffirming the House of Representative's commitment to
supporting the Asian-American and Pacific Islander community.
Whereas, in Asian-American communities across the country, Lunar New Year is the
highlight of the year and a time of celebration and spending time with
family;
Whereas, in Monterey Park, California, on January 21, 2023, community members,
many of whom were seniors, gathered at Star Ballroom Dance Studio to
dance and celebrate Lunar New Year's Eve;
Whereas, at 10:22 p.m., the sense of joy and safety felt by the community
members was horrifically shattered by a shooter who opened fire at the
dance studio, murdering 11 people and injuring 9;
Whereas, after the shooting in Monterey Park, California, the shooter drove to
Lai Lai Ballroom and Studio in Alhambra, California, with the intent to
kill more people;
Whereas 26-year-old Brandon Tsay disarmed the gunman when he arrived at Lai Lai
Ballroom and Studio, took possession of the weapon, and prevented
further senseless violence;
Whereas the people of the United States mourn the 11 innocent lives lost, all of
whom were of Asian descent and between 57 and 76 years old, and many of
whom were immigrants;
Whereas the victims who tragically died were Valentino Marcos Alvero, Hongying
Jian, Yu-Lun Kao, Lilan Li, Ming Wei Ma, Mymy Nhan, Diana Tom, Muoi Dai
Ung, Chia Ling Yau, Wen-Tau Yu, and Xiujuan Yu;
Whereas, on January 23, 2023, in a separate incident, another shooter opened
fire at California Terra Garden, a mushroom farm in Half Moon Bay,
California, murdering 4 people and severely injuring 1;
Whereas, after fleeing the scene, the gunman traveled 2 miles south to Concord
Farms, where he took 3 additional lives;
Whereas those who were tragically murdered were immigrant farmworkers who came
to the United States to pursue the American dream and contributed
immensely to our country by working hard to put food on our tables;
Whereas the deceased, like many farmworkers, lived in deplorable housing
conditions, struggled to access health care and fair wages, and were
highly vulnerable to exploitation;
Whereas to honor our proud heritage as a Nation of immigrants, we must ensure
that all immigrant farmworkers are treated with dignity and have a
quality of life worthy of the promise of our country;
Whereas the people of the United States mourn the 7 innocent lives lost, 2 of
whom were of Mexican descent and 5 of whom were of Chinese descent, all
of whom were immigrants and farmworkers;
Whereas the victims who tragically died were Yetao Bing, Qizhong Cheng, Marciano
Martinez Jimenez, Zhishen Liu, Jingzhi Lu, Jose Romero Perez, and
Aixiang Zhang;
Whereas the Monterey Park, California, and Half Moon Bay, California, shootings
happened while Asian-American communities have been experiencing
increased fear and lack of safety in the midst of an increase in anti-
Asian hate crimes and incidents related to the COVID-19 pandemic;
Whereas the United States saw a 339-percent increase in hate crimes against
Asian Americans between 2020 and 2021;
Whereas gun lobbyists deliberately target and market gun sales to Asian
Americans by capitalizing on their fear of violent racist attacks;
Whereas, according to a study by researchers at Stanford University, gun
ownership doubles the risk for homicides and triples the risk of
suicides;
Whereas gun violence is a national public health crisis, and resources on
firearm violence prevention should be made available to racial and
ethnic minority communities, individuals with limited English
proficiency, and immigrant communities; and
Whereas the people of the United States will always remember the victims of
these shootings and stand in solidarity with those affected by these
unconscionable tragedies: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) condemns the horrific acts of gun violence that led to
the tragic loss of 11 lives in Monterey Park, California, on
January 21, 2023, and of 7 lives in Half Moon Bay, California,
on January 23, 2023;
(2) honors the memory and legacy of the innocent victims
and offers heartfelt condolences and support to their families;
(3) commends the heroism of the brave individuals who put
themselves in harm's way to protect others during the heinous
attacks;
(4) recognizes that recovery will be difficult for the
communities in Monterey Park and Half Moon Bay, the Asian-
American community, and all communities impacted by these
tragedies, and expresses hope that those injured by the
attacks, both physically and emotionally, will all heal;
(5) honors the courage and selflessness of community
members, law enforcement, first responders, medical
professionals, and all other individuals who responded to the
attacks; and
(6) reaffirms the commitment of the Federal Government to
combat gun violence and violence targeting Asian Americans and
Pacific Islanders, and other communities of color, and to
prevent tragedies like this from ever happening again.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 202
Deeming certain conduct of members of Antifa as domestic terrorism and
designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 7, 2023
Ms. Greene of Georgia (for herself, Mr. Gosar, Mr. Hunt, Mrs. Miller of
Illinois, Mr. McCormick, Mr. Higgins of Louisiana, Mr. Biggs, and Mr.
Santos) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Deeming certain conduct of members of Antifa as domestic terrorism and
designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
Whereas the extremist organization Antifa is motivated by communism, anarchism,
socialism, and violence, and has continuously demonstrated their
commitment to lawlessness and criminal behavior;
Whereas, in 2016, the Department of Homeland Security formally classified Antifa
activities as ``domestic terrorist violence'';
Whereas one chapter, Rose City Antifa, has rejected the civil treatment of
perceived enemies, stating, ``We can't just argue against them; we have
to prevent them from organizing by any means necessary.'', and this same
chapter publicly stated, ``We are unapologetic about the reality that
fighting fascism at points requires physical militancy.'';
Whereas the far-left militant organization held signs reading, ``We are
ungovernable'' and ``Abolish ICE, no cops, prisons, borders,
presidents'', illustrating their dedication to lawlessness;
Whereas, in response to the 2017 violent riots, an Antifa extremist stated,
``Sometimes you have to use direct action to stop it because protesting,
signs, yelling is not going to do anything. You have to make them
afraid.'';
Whereas Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Christopher Wray stated in a
testimony to the House Homeland Security Committee, ``We have seen folks
who subscribe or identify with the Antifa movement, who coalesce
regionally into small groups or nodes and they are certainly organized
at that level'', proving these extreme, violent attacks, disguised under
the name of protests, are coordinated, organized events that are
orchestrated by Antifa;
Whereas the Congressional Research Service reports that Antifa literature urges
followers to publicize information such as home addresses, phone
numbers, photographs, and social media profiles of perceived enemies;
Whereas, in June 2018, at least 1,500 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(referred to in this resolution as ``ICE'') employees were doxed by an
Antifa-linked Twitter account and were subjected to violent threats and
harassments;
Whereas, in February 2017, black-bloc, Antifa-affiliated riots resulted in
$100,000 worth of damage at the University of California at Berkeley;
Whereas, in February 2017, over 200 rioters were indicted on charges of
assaulting police officers, torching a limousine, and smashing windows
of several businesses, and other Antifa-affiliated rioters were armed
with hammers, crowbars, bricks, rocks, flares, firecrackers, and other
explosive devices;
Whereas, in August 2017, approximately 100 Antifa rioters incited violence
during a peaceful rally in Berkeley, California, where these terrorists
were repeatedly punching and kicking innocent people, sending several
peaceful protestors to the hospital, and ultimately 13 rioters were
arrested on a range of charges including assault with deadly weapons and
obstructing a police officer;
Whereas, in July 2020, a self-proclaimed member of Antifa, Willem Van Spronsen,
tossed lit objects at vehicles and buildings, caused a car fire,
attempted to ignite a 500-gallon propane tank, and attempted to firebomb
the ICE detention facility in Tacoma, Washington;
Whereas, in February 2021, the United States Attorney for the District of Oregon
stated that Antifa caused more than $2,300,000 in riot damage to Federal
property in Oregon, not including any damages to private businesses or
State, county, and city buildings;
Whereas, over the summer of 2020, Antifa assisted in inflicting over
$2,000,000,000 in damages against churches, Federal buildings,
businesses, and other downtown structures across 20 States, resulting in
the death of at least 30 individuals as well as 700 injured police
officers;
Whereas, over the summer and fall of 2020, Portland District Attorney Mike
Schmidt refused to file charges in approximately 70 percent of the
approximate 1,000 protest- and riot-related cases brought by police
officers;
Whereas, in May 2020, the Department of Justice formally labeled Antifa violence
as domestic terrorism in a public statement saying, ``The violence
instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in
connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated
accordingly.'';
Whereas Black Lives Matter-Antifa rioter Malik Fard Muhammad was sentenced to 10
years in Federal prison for ``repeatedly and intentionally jeopardizing
the lives of police officers, destroying public property, and
encouraging others to commit violence during protests that occurred in
Portland in 2020'';
Whereas, in January 2021, Portland Police Bureau officials reported that Antifa
rioters attacked officers in downtown Portland shooting commercial-
grade, aerial fireworks and firebombs, and destroying government
property and over a dozen downtown businesses;
Whereas in that same riot, police were also attacked with bricks, rocks, and
frozen water bottles, and Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler reported at least
tens of thousands of dollars in damage had been done;
Whereas, in August 2022, Antifa ardently defended the sexualization of children
by guarding a ``kid-friendly'' drag show at a North Texas distillery;
Whereas, in January 2023, Atlanta police arrested 6 extremists on charges of
domestic terrorism following violent riots carried out by members of
Antifa who shattered windows, destroyed businesses, torched a police
car, and vandalized the walls of the city;
Whereas, in January 2023, Antifa issued a statement telling its followers to
bring pipes, spray paint, kerosene, and lighters to New York City to
``Burn it all down'';
Whereas, in March 2023, Antifa-affiliated rioters set fire to the future Atlanta
police training facility by launching fireworks, Molotov cocktails, and
other destructive items at police officers and into the facility's
construction site resulting in arrests of 23 extremists on charges of
domestic terrorism;
Whereas these coordinated, destructive acts of hate carried out by Antifa are
attacks against the Nation's law enforcement as well as the American
people and have no place in the United States; and
Whereas members of Antifa are relentlessly dedicated to using acts of domestic
terrorism in order to suppress opposing political ideologies: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That--
(1) this conduct of Antifa members, or any unlawful conduct
performed at an Antifa-affiliated demonstration, is deemed to
be domestic terrorism (as such term is defined in section 2331
of title 18, United States Code);
(2) the House of Representatives designates Antifa, and any
other affiliated group or subsidiary of Antifa, to be a
domestic terrorist organization; and
(3) the House of Representatives calls on the Department of
Justice--
(A) to prosecute these crimes of domestic terrorism
(as such term is defined in section 2331 of title 18,
United States Code) by Antifa; and
(B) to use all available tools and resources to
combat the spread of domestic terrorism (as such term
is defined in section 2331 of title 18, United States
Code) committed by Antifa.

1st Session
H. RES. 203
Expressing support for the designation of the week beginning March 5,
2023, as ``School Social Work Week''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 7, 2023
Ms. Moore of Wisconsin (for herself and Ms. Lee of California)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of the week beginning March 5,
2023, as ``School Social Work Week''.
Whereas the importance of school social work through the inclusion of school
social work programs and services has been recognized in the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 6301 et seq.) and the
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (20 U.S.C. 1400 et seq.);
Whereas school social workers are especially skilled in providing services to
students who face serious challenges to school success, including
disability, poverty, discrimination, abuse, neglect, mental illness,
homelessness, bullying, familial stressors, and other barriers to
learning;
Whereas school social workers are needed more now than at any time in recent
memory, as more students are struggling with mental and behavioral
health disorders, with nearly 1 in 6 children from 2 to 8 years old
(17.4 percent) having a diagnosed mental, behavioral, or developmental
disorder;
Whereas individuals who wish to access community mental health services often
find such services unavailable, inaccessible, or inadequate;
Whereas school-based mental health programs are critical to early identification
of and early intervention for mental health problems;
Whereas school social workers, being licensed mental health professionals in
schools in the United States, provide necessary assessment,
interventions, counseling, family outreach, and community referrals;
Whereas school mental health programs are critical to early identification of
mental health problems and in the provision of appropriate services when
needed;
Whereas school social workers maintain knowledge of school culture and school
climate which are necessary for responsible school safety planning;
Whereas fewer than 1 in 5 children in need of mental health services actually
receive these services, and research indicates that school mental health
programs improve educational outcomes by decreasing absences, dropout
rates, and discipline referrals, while improving academic achievement;
Whereas school social workers serve as vital members of a school's education
team, playing a central role in creating partnerships between the home,
school, and community to ensure student academic success; and
Whereas the celebration of ``School Social Work Week'' during the week beginning
March 5, 2023, highlights the vital role school social workers play in
the lives of students in the United States: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of ``School Social Work
Week'';
(2) honors and recognizes the contributions of school
social workers to the successes of students in schools across
the Nation; and
(3) encourages the people of the United States to observe
``School Social Work Week'' with appropriate ceremonies and
activities that promote awareness of the vital role of school
social workers, in schools and in the community as a whole, in
helping students prepare for their futures as productive
citizens.

_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Honoring the life of Dr. Paul Farmer by recognizing the duty of the
Federal Government to adopt a 21st-century global health solidarity
strategy and take actions to address past and ongoing harms that
undermine the health and well-being of people around the world.
Whereas Dr. Paul Farmer, who pioneered novel community-based strategies for the
delivery of high-quality health care in impoverished settings, inspired
a paradigmatic shift in global health, including inspiring robust United
States leadership to address the global HIV/AIDS epidemic in the early
2000s via the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief
(PEPFAR) and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria;
Whereas, in spite of this progress, weak health systems continue to cause
millions of people, primarily the global poor, to die tragic and
unnecessary deaths, including--
(1) annually, approximately--
G (A) 680,000 deaths from HIV/AIDS;
G (B) 1,500,000 deaths from tuberculosis;
G (C) 627,000 deaths from malaria;
G (D) 295,000 deaths of mothers during and following pregnancy and
childbirth;
G (E) 9,560,000 deaths among children under the age of 15; and
G (F) 560,000 deaths of children and young adults living among the
world's poorest billion people from noncommunicable diseases and injuries;
and
(2) a COVID-19 case-fatality rate up to 300 percent greater in low-
income countries than in high-income countries during the first two years
of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic;
Whereas, although progress against unnecessary deaths in impoverished countries
is being made, it is occurring so slowly that--
(1) based on present rates of decline, it will take approximately a
century for core mortality statistics in low-income countries to converge
with those of high-income countries, including--
G (A) 92 years for the tuberculosis death rate;
G (B) 109 years for the maternal mortality rate; and
G (C) 88 years for the under-15 child mortality rate; and
(2) the death rate in low- and middle-income countries from
noncommunicable diseases and injuries, which make up 40 to 60 percent of
the disease burden of these countries, will never converge with that of
high-income countries with present rates of reduction;
Whereas weak health systems that fail to prevent unnecessary deaths also lack
the staff, health facility infrastructure, and medical technologies
required for effective care delivery and thereby disease containment,
thus placing all countries at increased risk of pandemic disease;
Whereas essential medical technologies such as diagnostics, treatments, and
vaccines for diseases that affect the global poor are frequently
unavailable or inaccessible to health systems in developing countries
because--
(1) investing in research and development for technologies for diseases
that disproportionately affect the global poor is often unprofitable for
pharmaceutical corporations;
(2) high intellectual property licensing fees from originator companies
to generic manufacturers price the global poor out of access to medical
technologies; and
(3) originator technology companies refuse to share or license
intellectual property to generic manufacturers, which results in limited
supply and high prices, as in the case of COVID-19 vaccines;
Whereas the Lancet Commission on Investing in Health estimates the additional
annual spending required to prevent the vast majority of the millions of
unnecessary deaths and confer ``essential universal health coverage'' in
low- and lower-middle-income countries is $75,000,000,000 and
$293,000,000,000 (in 2016 United States dollars), respectively,
representing just--
(1) 1.6 percent of the United States gross domestic product (GDP) in
2021;
(2) 0.5 percent of G20 GDP in 2021; and
(3) 2.8 percent of the wealth possessed by the world's billionaires in
2021;
Whereas regular annual United States appropriations for global health have
increased by merely 10.6 percent to $11,300,000,000 since 2010, and have
been outpaced by both inflation and the United States economic growth;
Whereas relative to the size of the United States economy, the United States
official overseas development spending is low at 0.17 percent of gross
national income (GNI) in 2020, placing the United States 24th out of the
29 country members of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and
Development's Development Assistance Committee, and meeting just one-
fourth of the United Nations official development assistance target of
0.7 percent GNI;
Whereas dramatically increasing foreign aid may have voter support, given that
opinion polls consistently find that Americans believe United States
foreign aid should make up approximately 10 percent of the Federal
budget;
Whereas historically, United States and other global North-supported global
health programs have inadvertently entrenched standards of care in low-
income countries that would be unacceptable in rich countries by funding
only health services narrowly defined as ``sustainable'', ``cost-
effective'', or ``appropriate'' in poor settings;
Whereas the effectiveness and efficiency of current United States overseas
development assistance for health is often undermined by--
(1) misalignment with countries' national health plans;
(2) bypassing delivery systems with parallel inputs, leading to
fragmentation of care delivery, poor donor coordination across partners,
and weak health systems;
(3) favoring technical assistance from consultants from high-income
countries, especially the United States, over funding health service
delivery in beneficiary countries; and
(4) promoting privatization of health services, thereby undermining
public system strengthening, health care access, health equity, and
financial risk protection;
Whereas 98 percent of the annual $1,500,000,000,000 in health spending in aid-
eligible low- and middle-income countries is mobilized domestically by
these countries themselves, and only 2 percent of this spending comes
from overseas development assistance for health;
Whereas many of the poorest developing countries presently lack the tax capacity
to mobilize the necessary resources to close the universal health
coverage financing gap, meaning unnecessary deaths will continue in
these settings for the foreseeable future without external donor
financing or dramatic increases in domestic tax capacity;
Whereas the inability of many of the poorest developing countries to fully close
the financing gap for universal health coverage and the provision of
numerous other public goods and services is in part due to the intimate
economic links between these countries and high-income countries,
including the United States, which have been marked throughout history
by acts of violence and coercion, including, but not limited to--
(1) the fundamental injustice, cruelty, brutality, and inhumanity of
colonization and slavery;
(2) the overthrow of governments and backing of dictatorships in the
postcolonial era;
(3) the imposition of structural adjustment programs by international
financial institutions controlled by high-income countries, which forced
austerity, privatization, and liberalization on developing countries,
resulting in an estimated loss of $480,000,000,000 per year in potential
GDP during the 1980s and 1990s, nearly 5 times more than aid provided
during the same period;
(4) the loss of economic sovereignty imposed by fundamentally
undemocratic global governance institutions, such as the International
Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization, at which
decisions that shape the unequal terms of the global economic system and
determine countries' abilities to finance health systems are made;
(5) capital flight from developing countries consisting of mostly
illegal financial flows, estimated by Global Financial Integrity to total
approximately $1,700,000,000,000 each year, including--
G (A) $700,000,000,000 from deliberate trade misinvoicing; and
G (B) $261,000,000,000 from hot money narrow outflows; and
(6) external debt repayments, often undemocratically and unjustly
imposed, commonly sold by corrupt lenders, regularly accumulated by
dictators without a democratic mandate, and exacerbated by compound
interest as a result of United States interest rate increases;
Whereas the harms have entrenched a global economic architecture of upward
wealth redistribution that has resulted in--
(1) depressed workers' wages and artificially low prices of natural
resources in developing countries to serve consumption in rich countries,
amounting to an appropriation of tens of billions of tons of raw materials
and hundreds of billions of hours of human labor, estimated to value over
$10,000,000,000,000 in losses through unequal exchange annually;
(2) 3,500,000,000 people living under the poverty line of $5.50, which
according to the World Bank is a poverty headcount that has ``barely
changed in the last 30 years'', even as global GDP has more than tripled in
size during this time;
(3) more financial resources flowing out of developing countries than
into them each year, estimated by Global Financial Integrity to total net
negative $2,000,000,000,000 annually in 2012, meaning poorer countries are
developing richer countries rather than the other way around; and
(4) developing countries bearing 98 percent of deaths and 80 to 90
percent of economic losses attributable to climate change, despite rich
countries bearing 92 percent of the responsibility for climate change due
to carbon emissions in excess of safe planetary boundaries, meaning those
who suffer the most from climate change are least responsible for the
crisis;
Whereas the United States leadership to close the financing gaps for essential
universal health coverage in low- and lower-middle-income countries
could precipitate increased global health financing from other donor
partners as evidenced by United States leadership to address the HIV/
AIDS epidemic in the early 2000s, spurring a 100-percent increase in
global overseas development assistance among all donor partners from
2000 to 2006;
Whereas official United States development assistance to low- and lower-middle-
income countries are not a supplement for United States action to stop
ongoing structural violence and economic injustices preventing countries
from financing and delivering universal health care and other social
services for their populations; and
Whereas it is the view of the House of Representatives that creating a decent,
humane world without tragic, unnecessary deaths requires both a modest
but meaningful increase in global health aid funding and a meaningful
effort to stop the economic abuse of low- and middle-income countries:
Now, therefore, be it
(1) the Federal Government should adopt a new, 21st-century
global health solidarity strategy to end medically avertable
deaths and respond to the full burden of disease in poor
countries by--
(A) supporting developing countries to meet the
material needs of their health systems by localizing
investments in support of national public sector and
local priorities, referred to as ``accompaniment'' by
Dr. Paul Farmer and delivered through what he called
the ``Five S's'', which include--
(i) staff, the human resources necessary
for high-quality service delivery, including
clinical staff, transportation teams, and
community health workers, especially by--
(I) supporting long-term training
and education systems, including
medical schools and teaching hospitals
to train the health workforce and
improve the quality of care across
diseases; and
(II) supporting professionalized
community health workers programs
whereby community health workers are
recruited, adequately compensated,
comprehensively trained, supported for
long-term retention, positioned as
bridges to care, and tasked with
undertaking community work with
appropriate patient ratios and a
manageable scope of work;
(ii) space, the infrastructure needed for
service delivery at primary, secondary, and
tertiary levels to deliver safe and high-
quality care to meet all health care needs;
(iii) stuff, the tools and resources
necessary for high-quality care provision,
including medical supplies, technologies, and
equipment;
(iv) systems, the leadership and
governance, health information systems, supply
chain systems, logistics, laboratory capacity,
and referral pathways required to meet the
health needs of the population; and
(v) social support, the necessary resources
needed, beyond the direct delivery of health
care, to ensure effective care; and
(B) financing the discovery and development of
urgently needed new health technologies such as
diagnostics, treatments, and vaccines, particularly for
neglected diseases of poverty, and ensuring their
availability as global public goods;
(2) the objectives described in paragraph (1) will
require--
(A) increased United States investment in
development assistance over the coming years,
sufficient to--
(i) for the first time, meet the United
Nations development assistance target of
spending the equivalent of 0.7 percent gross
national income on development assistance,
which 6 other countries have previously met;
and
(ii) close over 100 percent of the
previously described essential universal health
coverage financing gap for low-income
countries, and 30 percent of the overall
financing gap for low- and lower-middle-income
countries, by dedicating $125,000,000,000 per
year for global health investment;
(B) optimizing global health delivery spending by--
(i) introducing a new form of coordinated
multilateral fiscal cooperation for global
public investment that ensures increased and
ongoing global public funding of common goods
for health, exhibiting shared governance with
global South governments and meaningful
participation of civil society, which is also
essential for addressing intersectional crises
of social inequalities including the climate
crisis;
(ii) ensuring funding directly supports
national health plans, public institutions,
local priorities, and donor coordination,
practices aligned with what Dr. Paul Farmer
called ``accompaniment''; and
(iii) focusing on health service delivery
for vulnerable populations, such as people
living in poverty, women, and children; and
(C) optimizing research and development spending
for neglected diseases of poverty by ensuring the
knowledge and technology produced by these efforts
remains accessible to all as global public goods;
(3) the Federal Government should pass and enforce laws and
use its diplomatic influence to stop ongoing economic harms to
the global South that deplete impoverished countries of the
resources required to provide health and social services for
their populations by--
(A) canceling debt for all low- and middle-income
countries in need of debt cancellation, and supporting
debt cancellation initiatives across all creditors:
bilateral, multilateral, and private;
(B) democratizing institutions of global
governance, such as the International Monetary Fund,
the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization, to
ensure fair and equal representation among member
countries so that low- and middle-income countries can
have greater decisionmaking power in the creation of
policies that affect them;
(C) supporting a United Nations Convention on Tax
and other measures to dramatically reduce tax
avoidance, tax evasion, and other forms of harmful
licit and illicit financial flows from developing
countries through fundamental reform of international
tax cooperation;
(D) supporting global labor rights and living
wages, such as a global minimum wage set at local
living-income thresholds; and
(E) adopting new indicators of progress that
measure social and ecological health and abandon gross
domestic product as a measure of progress; and
(4) it is the duty of the Federal Government to issue
reparations, containing multiple elements including apology,
award, and guarantees of nonrepetition of harms, for--
(A) the institution of slavery, its subsequent
racial and economic discrimination against African
Americans, and the impact of these forces on living
African Americans, following the establishment of a
commission as per the ``Commission and Develop to Study
Reparation Proposals for African Americans Act'' (H.R.
40 of the 117th Congress);
(B) the harms of colonialism and subsequent forms
of imperialism, which have undermined sovereignty,
democracy, self-determination, social and economic
rights, and human and ecological well-being in both the
colonial and postcolonial eras; and
(C) its disproportionate responsibility for climate
breakdown, the burden of which unjustly and
overwhelmingly falls on the global South.

H. RES. 206
Expressing support for the 88th Florida Strawberry Festival in Plant
City, Florida, its cultural significance to the State of Florida, and
the contributions of Plant City's strawberry industry to American
agriculture.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 8, 2023
Ms. Lee of Florida (for herself, Mr. Bilirakis, Ms. Castor of Florida,
and Mr. C. Scott Franklin of Florida) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the 88th Florida Strawberry Festival in Plant
City, Florida, its cultural significance to the State of Florida, and
the contributions of Plant City's strawberry industry to American
agriculture.
Whereas the Florida Strawberry Festival was first organized and held in 1930 by
the Plant City Lions Club;
Whereas, in 1948, the American Legion Post #26 helped get the Festival
reactivated following a 6-year hiatus during and immediately following
World War II;
Whereas the Festival brings people together to celebrate Plant City's strawberry
harvest through 11 days of activities, entertainment, and strawberry-
centric foods;
Whereas, today, the Festival is put together by a community-oriented
organization whose board of directors, staff, and volunteers devote
countless hours to planning for and accommodating tens of thousands of
people each day of the Festival;
Whereas more than 540,000 people attended the 2022 Florida Strawberry Festival;
Whereas the Strawberry Ball, hosted by the Florida Strawberry Festival, raised
$50,000 for Plant City's local food bank in 2022;
Whereas more than 75 percent of United States midwinter strawberries come from
Plant City, Florida;
Whereas approximately 200,000 strawberry shortcakes, the Festival's signature
dessert, are served each year at the Florida Strawberry Festival;
Whereas more than 10,000 acres of strawberries are planted annually in the local
area, and its 2,800 farms make Hillsborough County a national leader in
producing strawberries, citrus, tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, squash,
okra, peppers, beans, dairy products, eggs, ornamental horticulture,
tropical fish, beef cattle, swine, and other related products; and
Whereas the annual value of Hillsborough County's farms total $360,000,000: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the contributions of Plant City's strawberry
industry to Florida's agriculture;
(2) applauds the unique cultural significance of the annual
Florida Strawberry Festival to the people of Plant City,
Hillsborough County, and the State of Florida; and
(3) celebrates the 88th Florida Strawberry Festival and
supports its related youth development programs, entertainment,
and parades that bring the Plant City community together and
share it with visitors from around the world.

H. RES. 208
Observing the 100th anniversary of the birth of John Leslie ``Wes''
Montgomery and commemorating his contributions to jazz music.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 8, 2023
Mr. Carson submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Observing the 100th anniversary of the birth of John Leslie ``Wes''
Montgomery and commemorating his contributions to jazz music.
Whereas, on March 6, 1923, John Leslie ``Wes'' Montgomery (referred to in this
resolution as ``Wes Montgomery'') was born to Frances and Tom Montgomery
in Indianapolis, Indiana;
Whereas Wes Montgomery was naturally gifted in the musical arts and became
proficient on the 4- and 6-string guitar in his youth;
Whereas Wes Montgomery was a self-taught musician and learned to play guitar by
listening to recordings of jazz guitarist Charlie Christian;
Whereas Wes Montgomery developed a unique fingerstyle playing technique uncommon
to jazz guitarists in his day, using the thumb to play bass notes
simultaneously with melodic lines;
Whereas Wes Montgomery crafted diverse and unconventional rhythms that became a
defining representation of bebop-style jazz guitar;
Whereas Wes Montgomery became famous after performing in jazz clubs in
Indianapolis and was later recruited to tour with the Lionel Hampton
Orchestra;
Whereas, in 1957, Wes Montgomery joined his brothers Buddy and Monk to perform
with other bands and record music with Pacific Jazz Records;
Whereas, following the release of Wes Montgomery's albums ``The Wes Montgomery
Trio'' and ``The Incredible Guitar of Wes Montgomery'', Wes Montgomery's
music became famous internationally, and his band traveled extensively
in Europe in the spring of 1965;
Whereas, in 1967, Wes Montgomery's album ``A Day in the Life'' was rated the
premier album on the Billboard Jazz Albums chart, 2nd on the Billboard
R&B Albums chart, and 13th on the Billboard 200 chart; and
Whereas, on June 15, 1968, Wes Montgomery passed at his home in Indianapolis:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the contributions of John Leslie ``Wes'' Montgomery to
jazz music continue to enrich the music industry and inspire
countless musicians across the world; and
(2) the legacy of John Leslie ``Wes'' Montgomery as a great
Hoosier musician should be recognized and celebrated.

was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the
importance of taking a feminist approach to all aspects of foreign
policy, including foreign assistance and humanitarian response, trade,
diplomacy, defense, immigration, funding, and accountability
mechanisms.
Whereas a feminist approach to public policy requires meaningful analysis of and
proactive challenges to power structures and inequalities based on
intersecting systems of discrimination, including discrimination on the
basis of race, age, language, socioeconomic status, physical or mental
ability, sex, including gender identity or expression and sexual
orientation, indigenous identity, religion, ethnicity, citizenship, and
nationality or migrant status;
Whereas foreign policy reflects how a government defines and prioritizes peace
and security, structures international trade, provides humanitarian aid
and development assistance, and works with other nations and non-state
actors;
Whereas feminist foreign policy is the policy of a State that defines its
interactions with other States, as well as movements and other non-state
actors, in a manner that--
(1) prioritizes peace, gender equality, and environmental integrity;
(2) enshrines, promotes, and protects the human rights of all;
(3) seeks to disrupt colonial, racist, patriarchal, and male-dominated
power structures; and
(4) allocates significant resources, including research, to achieve
that vision;
Whereas feminist foreign policy is coherent in its approach across its levers of
influence, anchored by the exercise of those values at home and
cocreated with feminist organizations, movements, and stakeholders, at
home and abroad;
Whereas women's rights are human rights and foreign policy in the United States
should be representative, inclusive, responsive, and accountable to
stakeholders, and should take an intersectional approach, utilizing a
power-based analysis that reveals, acknowledges, and seeks to correct
for inequalities;
Whereas feminist foreign policy includes a focus on key thematic priorities of
bodily autonomy, peace, environmental integrity, and justice, which are
often left behind in foreign policy development and discourse;
Whereas, although women and girls make up approximately half of the world's
population, they face considerable disparities relative to men and boys
in their access to rights, resources, and agency around the world, and--
(1) as of 2022, women had on average three-quarters of the legal rights
as men worldwide;
(2) the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap report for 2022
estimates that at the current rate of change, it will take 132 years for
there to be gender parity across the four dimensions it examines: health
and survival, economic participation and opportunity, educational
attainment, and political empowerment;
(3) there are 1,800,000,000 young people in the world and approximately
half of them, 900,000,000, are adolescent girls and young women;
(4) as early as age 6, girls' levels of ambition and self-confidence in
their abilities are impacted by gender discrimination and harmful
stereotypes, and girls aged 12 to 17 are more at risk of dropping out of
school than boys around the world;
(5) in 2022, around the world women held only 22.9 percent of
parliamentary seats and 16.1 percent of ministerial positions;
(6) approximately one-third of women globally have experienced gender-
based violence, which increases in settings of crisis, conflict, and
humanitarian emergencies;
(7) in 2021, 81,000 women and girls were killed worldwide, 45,000 of
them by an intimate partner or family member;
(8) in 2021, only 5.8 percent of military contingents and 14.4 percent
of uniformed police units in United Nations peacekeeping missions were
women;
(9) in low- and middle-income countries, 218,000,000 women want to
delay or prevent pregnancy and have an unmet need for family planning
services and supplies, which can lead to unintended pregnancies and health
complications, and limit women's and girls' opportunities to pursue
education, economic, and civic engagement;
(10) women face more constraints than men do in accessing foreign
markets;
(11) immigration law itself tends to marginalize women, relying on
outmoded models of family, migration patterns, and economic mobility that
often fail to account for the reality of women's lives when migrating;
(12) women and girls face increased risks in crisis; and
(13) in the past decade, women provided over 43 percent of the
agricultural labor in low- and middle-income countries, yet comprised more
than 60 percent of the world's chronically hungry people;
Whereas in a world in which there is gender equality and women can fully
participate in all spheres of life--
(1) global gross domestic product could increase by $28,000,000,000,000
over 10 years;
(2) the percentage of hungry people could be reduced by 12 to 17
percent if women had equal access to agricultural resources; and
(3) peace agreements are 35 percent more likely to last over 15 years
when women are at the negotiating table;
Whereas as foreign assistance by the United States helps tens of millions of
people each year, often providing lifesaving aid while accounting for
approximately 1 percent of the United States Federal budget, a smaller
amount supports gender equality, and--
(1) about 3 percent of assistance in 2020 was reported as specifically
for gender equality programs;
(2) only about 19 percent of assistance in 2020 was reported as
including key components to address gender equality issues within projects
that have a primary focus other than gender equality across all sectors;
and
(3) an even smaller amount of aid funding finds its way to local,
women-led and feminist organizations and grassroots gender equality
movements, and in 2020, the United States only disbursed $1,000,000 to
women's rights organizations and institutions, and as of 2021, in the past
10 years has not disbursed more than $10,000,000 in a year;
Whereas a feminist foreign assistance policy in the United States would promote
gender equality and focus on the experience of women and people who
experience multiple and intersecting forms of discrimination, such as
gender-based violence, lack of access to sexual and reproductive health,
rights, and justice, lack of access to education, and the burden of
unpaid care responsibilities;
Whereas the long-lasting impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need
to take a feminist approach to foreign policy with many impacts
disproportionately affecting women and girls, including--
(1) the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization (UNESCO) finds that over 90 percent of students were affected
by pandemic-related school closures, that approximately 1,500,000,000
students had their learning disrupted, and that approximately 11,000,000
girls were put at risk for permanently dropping out of school by the
pandemic;
(2) the economic impact of the pandemic has had a disproportionate
effect on women, and the 780,000,000 women who rely on informal employment
lost on average 60 percent of their prepandemic income in the first month
of the pandemic;
(3) on average, the ratio of women's employment to population dropped
more than that of men due to the COVID-19 pandemic according to the
International Labour Organization;
(4) UN Women, the United Nations Development Programme, and the
University of Pardee Center for International Futures estimated that the
COVID-19 pandemic put 388,000,000 women and girls at risk of falling into
extreme poverty in 2022, compared to 372,000,000 men and boys, worsening
the already existing gender-poverty gap;
(5) worldwide, women have shouldered the bulk of unpaid care and
domestic work resulting from the pandemic, and even prior to the pandemic,
women on average performed more than three times the amount of unpaid work
relative to men;
(6) the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted efforts to end child marriage, and
could result in an additional 13,000,000 child marriages taking place
between 2020 and 2030 that would otherwise have been averted;
(7) nearly 12,000,000 women lost access to family planning services and
1,400,000 unintended pregnancies in low- and middle-income countries
occurred in just the first year of the pandemic;
(8) an estimated 243,000,000 women worldwide were subjected to sexual
or physical violence by an intimate partner between April 2019 and April
2020, and 45 percent of women have been exposed to at least one form of
violence against women either directly or indirectly since the start of the
pandemic; and
(9) due to the disruption of programs to prevent female genital
mutilation in response to COVID-19, an additional 2,000,000 female genital
mutilation cases will need to be averted to eradicate the practice by 2030;
Whereas, in mid-2022, over 100,000,000 people were displaced from their homes
due to violence, disaster, conflict, and persecution, more than
339,000,000 people will be in need of humanitarian assistance in 2023,
and tools and initiatives to center women, girls, and people of all
gender identities in humanitarian responses, such as Safe from the Start
and the Inter-Agency Standing Committee Gender Handbook for Humanitarian
Action, should be used to respond;
Whereas trade is a necessary and vital component of a nation's economic success
and growth and a key part of its engagement with other nations, and--
(1) in 2022, United States exports and imports totaled approximately
$3,009,700,000,000 and $3,957,800,000,000, respectively; and
(2) a feminist trade policy would promote women's rights and equitable
and dignified labor practices throughout the value chain, as well as reduce
and mitigate the harmful impacts of climate change associated with trade;
Whereas feminist diplomacy fosters increased collaboration and cooperation among
State and non-state actors, including championing equality and
supporting the institutions and mechanisms that facilitate cooperation,
nonmilitary conflict resolution, and peaceful competition, and that
mitigate the effects of climate change;
Whereas a total of 13 governments have implemented or announced an intention to
implement feminist foreign policies and the G7 has recognized ``feminist
development, foreign and trade policies'' and has committed to
strengthen the rights, resources, and opportunities for women and girls
in all their diversity in every sphere;
Whereas defense efforts support the goal of a more peaceful, equitable, and
healthy planet, with peace as the ultimate aim of defense, and a
military policy that prevents and responds to gender-based violence in
conflict and that meaningfully includes women and those who face
discrimination in security forces, peace negotiations, and postconflict
rebuilding, in accordance with United States commitments to the Women,
Peace, and Security Act of 2017 (P.L. 115-68) and its necessary
implementation;
Whereas migration remains a global and growing phenomenon, and--
(1) the number of international migrants reached an estimated
281,000,000 persons in 2020;
(2) women constitute nearly half of global migrant flows;
(3) the United States is the leading country of destination, hosting
50,632,836 foreign-born people, including over 613,700 naturalized citizens
in fiscal year 2022; and
(4) a feminist approach to immigration would integrate an analysis of
the impact of immigration policy on women, children, people of all gender
identities, and indigenous people; and
Whereas strong transparency and accountability are critical to ensuring that
promises to advance a feminist approach are honored through full funding
and include the development of participatory approaches to policy
formulation and implementation, the setting and reaching of specific,
time-bound and measurable goals that do no harm and are desired by and
beneficial to those impacted, and transparent reporting on the progress
toward goals: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals of a feminist foreign policy;
(2) supports the adoption of policies that promote gender
equity and women and girls' participation in public life,
including women and girls' education, equitable access to
health care, representation in public office, economic security
and opportunity, access to rights and resources, inclusion in
foreign markets, and participation in peacekeeping, military,
and diplomatic missions;
(3) recognizes that a whole-of-government effort that
ensures coherence of a feminist approach across all streams of
foreign policy is necessary to achieve those goals, and must
include--
(A) high-level leadership with a mandate to design
and implement a feminist foreign policy with clearly
articulated objectives;
(B) commitment to gender parity, diversity, equity,
and inclusion, both internally among leadership and
staff and externally, cocreated with civil society
groups and other stakeholders outside of government;
(C) the adoption of a zero-tolerance policy on
gender-based violence and workplace harassment,
immediately eliminating policies that allow abusers to
move from one post to another once accused without
facing consequences related to their employment or
promotion;
(D) training and capacity-building to ensure robust
implementation;
(E) gender analysis underlying all aspects of
foreign policy;
(F) adequate resourcing to ensure all of the above;
and
(G) regular and public reporting on efforts and
outcomes; and
(4) commits to work with civil society groups and other
stakeholders inside and outside of government to advance a more
feminist foreign policy in the United States.

H. RES. 21
Commemorating the life and legacy of Sojourner Truth.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 11, 2023
Ms. Jackson Lee submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Commemorating the life and legacy of Sojourner Truth.
Whereas Sojourner Truth was born Isabella Baumfree to her slave parents James
and Elizabeth Baumfree, in 1897 in Dutch-speaking Swartekill, Ulster
County, New York;
Whereas Sojourner Truth was born two years before ``An Act for the Gradual
Elimination of Slavery'' became law in Pennsylvania, which consigned her
to the status of slave for the rest of her life;
Whereas Sojourner Truth, starting at the age of 9 and continuing into
adolescence, was bought and sold 4 times and bore at least 5 children,
but lived to overcome her hardscrabble beginning to become one of the
most famous and influential women of the 19th century;
Whereas, in 1827, the year before a New York law freeing slaves took effect,
Sojourner Truth escaped from bondage with her infant daughter Sophia and
sought refuge with staunch abolitionists Maria Van Wagener and her
husband Dr. Isaac Van Wagener;
Whereas for 20 dollars the Van Wageners bought Sojourner Truth's freedom and
helped her successfully sue for the return of her 5-year-old son Peter,
who had been illegally sold into slavery in Alabama;
Whereas, in 1828, Sojourner Truth moved to New York City to work for a local
minister and, by the early 1830s, her reputation of being a charismatic
speaker was becoming well known;
Whereas, in 1843, Sojourner Truth declared that the Holy Spirit called on her to
preach the truth, renaming herself Sojourner Truth;
Whereas Sojourner Truth used her divinely inspired gift of speech to advocate
for equal treatment of all persons, including the right of all women to
enjoy the same privileges and immunities the Constitution bestowed upon
men;
Whereas the most famous expression of Sojourner Truth's deeply held conviction
that all women were entitled to equal treatment under the law came in
her address at the Women's Convention in Akron, Ohio on May 29, 1851, in
which she declared, ``That man over there says that women need to be
helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best
place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-
puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me!
Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns,
and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and
eat as much as a man--when I could get it--and bear the lash as well!
And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all
sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none
but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?'' and ``If the first woman God
ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone,
these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right
side up again! And now they is asking to do it, the men better let
them.'';
Whereas the enduring legacy of Sojourner Truth is her steadfast belief that all
men and women are created equal--a refrain that is echoed in the ``I
Have a Dream'' speech given on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on
August 28, 1963, by the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.;
Whereas, in the 1850s, Sojourner Truth settled in Battle Creek, Michigan, where
3 of her daughters lived and continued to speak nationally and help to
resettle slaves who had escaped to freedom;
Whereas at the onset of the Civil War, Sojourner Truth urged free Black men to
join the Union Army cause and worked to organize supplies for Black
troops;
Whereas after the Civil War, Sojourner Truth was honored with an invitation to
the White House and became involved with the Freedmen's Bureau, helping
freed slaves find jobs and build new and better lives;
Whereas Sojourner Truth continued her advocacy for human and civil rights for
former slaves as she fought against de jure segregation; and
Whereas, at 63 years of age, Sojourner Truth stood up to a streetcar conductor
who tried to violently block her from riding, predating and modeling the
courage of Rosa Parks, who less than 100 years later stood up for
justice by sitting down: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the life of Sojourner Truth reflects the experience of
millions of women of African descent brought to the Americas in
violence and in violation of their human rights to be the
progenitors of slaves, but who not only survived that
existence, but thrived to shape new paths to an awakening of
how people view race and gender;
(2) Sojourner Truth demonstrates the indomitable will of
people everywhere who yearn to be free and overcome impossible
odds to win freedom for themselves and others; and
(3) Sojourner Truth reflects the best American tradition of
using one's courage and intellect to transcend societal limits
to reinvent and renew the American Dream and pass it on to
succeeding generations, endowing them with the freedom to
unleash their imagination and pursue their dreams.

H. RES. 210
Supporting the designation of December 5 of each year as ``National
Soil Health Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 8, 2023
Mr. Krishnamoorthi submitted the following resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the designation of December 5 of each year as ``National
Soil Health Day''.
Whereas soil is an essential natural resource, and farmers and professionals in
the United States play a critical role in managing United States soil
and water resources;
Whereas the Natural Resources Conservation Service of the Department of
Agriculture defines soil health as the continued capacity of soil to
function as a vital living ecosystem that sustains plants, animals, and
humans;
Whereas the concept of soil health across the United States landscape is not
new, but is only recently recognized as needed to prevent soil
degradation and combat climate change;
Whereas the degradation of soil can be rapid, while the formation and
regeneration processes can be very slow;
Whereas the protection of United States soil is essential to the long-term
prosperity and sustainability of the soil and water resources of the
Nation;
Whereas the 6 basic principles of soil health necessary for that protection are
to--
(1) minimize soil disturbance and external inputs, including reduced
tillage;
(2) maximize plant and microbial diversity;
(3) maintain the presence of living roots;
(4) keep the soil covered, including with cover crops and crop residue,
to armor the soil;
(5) integrate animals into land management, including grazing animals,
birds, beneficial insects, or keystone species, such as earthworms; and
(6) incorporate the context of local conditions in decision making,
including, for example, soil type, topography, and time of year;
Whereas soil health principles and its associated practices of no-till, cover
crops, nutrient management plans, and longer crop rotations enhance the
ability of farmers to meet the nonpoint source pollution goals for
nitrate-nitrogen and phosphorus;
Whereas it is essential to reduce the amount of nutrients flowing off of farm
fields and into United States watersheds, and with these reduced
nutrient losses from agriculture lands, farmers will be able to meet
desired outcomes as outlined by the Mississippi River Basin Hypoxia Task
Force for the Gulf of Mexico;
Whereas soil health principles provide for the reduction of carbon dioxide in
the atmosphere through the sequestration of carbon within the upper
reaches of the soil profile, and this carbon mitigation improves the
organic matter content in the soil and provides a stable biome for soil
organisms, improves nutrient transfer from soil to root, and increases
water infiltration and water-holding capacity;
Whereas despite soil's importance to human health, the environment, nutrition
and food, feed, fiber, and fuel production, there is little public
awareness of the importance of soil protection; and
Whereas the United States should be actively raising awareness of the importance
of soil health and promoting its stewardship to safeguard this resource
for future generations of United States citizens: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of ``National Soil Health
Day''; and
(2) calls upon this celebration and its related activities
to improve the awareness of United States farmers and
agribusiness toward the importance of the air and water quality
environment for all of the citizens of the United States.

Expressing support for the designation of March 8, 2023, as ``National
Emily Warner and Women Airline Pilots Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 8, 2023
Mr. Neguse (for himself, Mr. Crow, Ms. Pettersen, Ms. Caraveo, and Mr.
Lamborn) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of March 8, 2023, as ``National
Emily Warner and Women Airline Pilots Day''.
Whereas Emily Howell Warner (referred to in this preamble as ``Emily Warner'')
of the State of Colorado is a celebrated female airline pilot with a
proud legacy of promoting gender equity in all professions;
Whereas, 50 years ago, Emily Warner shattered the glass ceiling of the airline
flight deck in the United States when she was hired by Frontier Airlines
to be the first female airline pilot, opening the sky for other female
airline pilots;
Whereas, in 1974, Emily Warner became the first female member of the Air Line
Pilots Association, International;
Whereas, in 1976, Emily Warner became first female airline captain in the United
States;
Whereas Emily Warner was a founding member of--
(1) the Colorado Pilots Association;
(2) the International Society of Women Airline Pilots; and
(3) the Friends of the Granby/Grand County Airport;
Whereas the Frontier Airlines uniform worn by Emily Warner hangs in the
Smithsonian Air and Space Museum;
Whereas, in 1994, Emily Warner was honored by Colorado Legislature Resolution
94-29, entitled ``Honoring Captain Emily Warner of the Achievements in
Aviation History'';
Whereas Emily Warner has been inducted into the Women in Aviation International
Pioneer Hall of Fame, the National Women's Hall of Fame, the National
Aviation Hall of Fame, the Irish-American Hall of Fame, the Colorado
Women's Hall of Fame, and the Colorado Aviation Hall of Fame;
Whereas, in 2015, the Granby/Grand County Airport was renamed Emily Warner Field
to honor the many contributions of Emily Warner to aviation; and
Whereas more than 16 percent of airline pilots in the United States are women:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports a ``National
Emily Warner and Women Airline Pilots Day''.

1st Session
H. RES. 212
Opposing a national sales tax on working families and supporting a tax
cut to benefit the middle class.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 8, 2023
Mr. Nickel (for himself, Mr. Sorensen, and Ms. Pettersen) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and
Means, and in addition to the Committees on Energy and Commerce, Armed
Services, Veterans' Affairs, and the Judiciary, for a period to be
subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration
of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee
concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Opposing a national sales tax on working families and supporting a tax
cut to benefit the middle class.
Whereas hardworking families have faced significant economic challenges over the
past few years, including high gas prices, rising costs for groceries,
and increasing rent and home prices due to record-high inflation;
Whereas elected leaders should be working to relieve individuals in the United
States of the financial pressure at the kitchen table, and pass
legislation that brings down costs rather than raises prices;
Whereas Republicans in Congress have introduced and plan to consider H.R. 25,
the FairTax Act of 2023, which would impose a new national sales tax and
increase the price of all goods and services by 30 percent;
Whereas, under this legislation, it is estimated that, for a family in the
United States--
(1) the average yearly grocery bill would rise by $3,500;
(2) the cost of buying a car would go up $10,000; and
(3) the cost of buying a home would increase by $125,000;
Whereas the price increases brought on by the FairTax Act of 2023 would
disproportionately impact retirees, seniors, and those living on a fixed
income by raising prices on individuals whose incomes will remain flat
as prices rise;
Whereas this misguided legislation, which places a financial burden on seniors
and hardworking families, also eliminates all income taxes for the
ultra-rich;
Whereas in recent years, Republicans in Congress have given massive tax cuts to
billionaires and giant corporations at the expense of middle class
families;
Whereas Republicans in Congress have suggested paying for past tax cuts for
corporations and the ultra-wealthy by cutting Social Security, Medicare,
and Medicaid;
Whereas Democrats in Congress passed the largest middle class tax cut in
generations through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law
117-2; 135 Stat. 4), which expanded the earned income tax credit and the
child tax credit, cutting child poverty nearly in half in 2021; and
Whereas individuals in the United States deserve real bipartisan tax reform and
a simpler, fairer tax code aimed at supporting the middle class: Now
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) strongly opposes H.R. 25, the FairTax Act of 2023,
which would impose an effective 30 percent sales tax on all
goods and services, raising prices for hardworking families,
seniors, and other individuals in the United States working to
make ends meet;
(2) supports the passage of a responsible tax cut that
would actually benefit hardworking families and grow the middle
class, while making the ultra-wealthy and billion-dollar
corporations pay their fair share; and
(3) opposes paying for any tax cuts with cuts to Social
Security, Medicare, or Medicaid, or cuts to pay and benefits
for our servicemembers, veterans, or law enforcement.

<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 213
Supporting the designation of March 2023 as National Colorectal Cancer
Awareness Month.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 8, 2023
Mr. Payne submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the designation of March 2023 as National Colorectal Cancer
Awareness Month.
Whereas colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among men
and women combined in the United States;
Whereas, in 2023, approximately 153,020 Americans will be diagnosed with
colorectal cancer and approximately 52,550 Americans will die from it;
Whereas colorectal cancer is one of the most highly preventable forms of cancer
because screening tests can find polyps that can be removed before
becoming cancerous;
Whereas screening tests can detect colorectal cancer early, when treatment works
best;
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that if every
individual aged 50 or older had regular screening tests, as many as 60
percent of deaths from colorectal cancer could be prevented;
Whereas the 5-year survival rate for patients with localized colorectal cancer
is 90 percent, but only 39 percent of all diagnoses occur at this stage;
Whereas colorectal cancer screenings can effectively reduce colorectal cancer
incidence and mortality, yet, 1 in 3 adults over 50 years of age are not
up to date with recommended colorectal cancer screening;
Whereas 1 in 23 men and 1 in 26 women will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer
in their lifetime;
Whereas, since 2011, colorectal cancer rates have been increasing by 2% per year
in people younger than 50 years of age;
Whereas public awareness and education campaigns on colorectal cancer
prevention, screening, and symptoms are held during the month of March
each year; and
Whereas educational efforts can help provide information to the public of
methods of prevention and screening, as well as about symptoms for early
detection: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of National Colorectal
Cancer Awareness Month; and
(2) encourages the people of the United States to observe
the month with appropriate awareness and educational
activities.

H. RES. 215
Recognizing the cultural and historical significance of Nowruz.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 9, 2023
Ms. Lofgren (for herself, Mrs. Bice, Mr. Connolly, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Mr.
Himes, Mr. Sherman, Mr. Khanna, Mr. Raskin, Mr. Costa, Mrs. Lee of
Nevada, Mr. Peters, Ms. Porter, Mr. Trone, Mr. Correa, Ms. McCollum,
Ms. Salazar, Mr. Torres of New York, Mr. Lieu, and Mr. Mullin)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the cultural and historical significance of Nowruz.
Whereas Nowruz marks the traditional Iranian New Year, which originated in
ancient Persia, and dates back more than 3,000 years;
Whereas Nowruz, meaning a ``New Day'', occurs on the vernal equinox and
celebrates the arrival of spring;
Whereas Nowruz symbolizes a time of renewal and community, it harkens the
departure from the trials and tribulations of the previous year, and it
brings hope for the new year;
Whereas Nowruz is celebrated by nearly 300,000,000 Iranians and other peoples
all over the world, including in the United States, Iran, and other
countries in Central Asia, South Asia, the Caucasus, Crimea, and the
Balkan region;
Whereas Nowruz is celebrated by Iranian Americans of all backgrounds, including
those with Baha'i, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Zoroastrian, and
nonreligious backgrounds;
Whereas Nowruz serves to remind the United States of the many lasting
contributions of the Persian civilization to the world and the
noteworthy impact of Iranian Americans to the social and economic fabric
of society in the United States;
Whereas Iranian Americans continue to make contributions in all sectors of
American public life, including as government, military, and law
enforcement officials working to uphold the Constitution of the United
States and to protect all people in the United States;
Whereas Iranian Americans maintain strong ties to the people of Iran and desire
to see a democratic Iran that respects human rights;
Whereas Congress supports the Iranian people's right to freedom of expression
and speech;
Whereas, since September of 2022, following the death of Mahsa Amini in state
custody of the Iranian morality police for purportedly wearing a hijab
improperly, the Iranian people have been protesting against the Iranian
regime's gross human rights violations and in support of ``Women, Life,
Freedom''; and
Whereas Nowruz embodies the tradition that each individual's thinking, speaking,
and conduct should always be virtuous, and the ideal of compassion for
our fellow human beings regardless of ethnicity or religion, and
connects the Persian New Year to the values of human rights: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the cultural and historical significance of
Nowruz;
(2) expresses its appreciation for the contributions of
Iranian Americans to society in the United States in observance
of Nowruz;
(3) recognizes the hopes and aspirations of all people,
including the people of Iran, for human rights, religious
tolerance, and freedom as embodied in the spirit of Nowruz;
(4) commends the observance of the Nowruz holiday in both
the United States and Iran, and strongly supports the right of
all Iranians to exercise freedom of assembly, freedom of
expression, and freedom of speech; and
(5) wishes Iranian Americans and the people of Iran and all
those who observe this holiday a prosperous new year.

H. RES. 217
Supporting the designation of March 2023 as Endometriosis Awareness
Month.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 9, 2023
Mr. David Scott of Georgia (for himself, Mrs. Gonzalez-Colon, Ms.
Williams of Georgia, Ms. Norton, Mrs. Watson Coleman, Ms. Lois Frankel
of Florida, Ms. Chu, Mrs. Dingell, Mr. Panetta, Ms. Tlaib, Mr. Bishop
of Georgia, Mr. Carter of Louisiana, Mr. Peters, Ms. Stevens, Ms.
Velazquez, Ms. Jackson Lee, and Mr. Espaillat) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the designation of March 2023 as Endometriosis Awareness
Month.
Whereas endometriosis is a disease in which the type of tissue that normally
grows in the uterus (the endometrium) also grows outside of the uterus;
Whereas endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases in women,
and occurs in 1 in 10 women of reproductive age;
Whereas the cause of endometriosis is not known, but risk factors include--
(1) having a mother, sister, or daughter with endometriosis;
(2) menstrual cycles that started at an early age;
(3) menstrual cycles that are short; and
(4) periods that are heavy and last more than 7 days;
Whereas, for many women, the only way currently available to be certain of an
endometriosis diagnosis is to have a surgical procedure known as a
laparoscopy;
Whereas endometriosis primarily affects women in their 30s and 40s, but can
affect any woman who menstruates;
Whereas women experience a delay from three to eleven years between the first
symptoms of pain and the final endometriosis diagnosis, which can lead
to lower quality of life and high medical costs;
Whereas for many girls and women, endometriosis is a lifelong chronic disease
that can affect relationships, school, work, fertility, and daily life;
Whereas the primary symptoms of endometriosis include pain and infertility, and
many with endometriosis live with debilitating, chronic pain;
Whereas approximately 75 percent of women with endometriosis experience a
misdiagnosis;
Whereas the management of symptoms of endometriosis may include low-dose oral
contraceptives, intrauterine devices (IUDs), painkillers, including
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and gonadotropin-
releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist therapy;
Whereas endometriosis is associated with increased health care costs and poses a
substantial burden to patients in the health care system;
Whereas, in the United States, the estimated average direct health care cost
associated with endometriosis per patient is more than $13,000 per year;
Whereas 40 percent of women with endometriosis report impaired career growth due
to endometriosis, and approximately 50 percent of women with
endometriosis experience a decreased ability to work;
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that the average
number of ``bed days'' for patients with endometriosis was 18 days per
year;
Whereas women with endometriosis can lose 11 hours per workweek through lost
productivity;
Whereas the physical and psychological impact of endometriosis affects all
domains of life, including social life, relationships, and work;
Whereas medical societies and patient groups have expressed the need for greater
public attention and updated resources targeted to public education
about this unmet health need for women;
Whereas there is a need for more research and updated guidelines to treat
endometriosis;
Whereas there is an ongoing need for additional clinical research and treatment
options to manage this debilitating disease; and
Whereas there is no known cure for endometriosis: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) strongly supports the goals and ideals of Endometriosis
Awareness Month;
(2) recognizes the need for early detection and treatment
of endometriosis, increased education for health care
providers, and more culturally competent care;
(3) remains committed to supporting and funding
endometriosis research for more effective treatments,
increasing fertility, and, ultimately, a cure; and
(4) encourages the people of the United States to observe
the month with appropriate awareness and educational
activities.

H. RES. 218
Commemorating the life and legacy of labor pioneer Kate Mullany in
honor of Women's History Month.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 9, 2023
Mr. Tonko submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Commemorating the life and legacy of labor pioneer Kate Mullany in
honor of Women's History Month.
Whereas, in 1838, Kate Mullany was born in England to Dominic and Bridgit Byrne
Mullany of Roscommon of Ireland;
Whereas, on July 24, 1850, Mullany emigrated to New York City with her siblings
Mary, Kate, and Bridgit, and arrived in Troy, New York, around 1853;
Whereas the city of Troy, New York, played a significant role in the development
of the detachable collar industry, where women made up 85 percent of the
workforce and worked up to 14-hour days for as little as $3 per week;
Whereas women who worked in the detachable collar industry were subjected to
significant health and safety hazards, including widespread exposure to
caustic chemicals, hot water, and bleach, and demands for rapid work
added to the incidence of severe burns and other dangers;
Whereas Dominic Mullany died in 1864 prompting Kate to step up as a family
breadwinner at 26 years of age, gaining employment at one of the 14
laundries in Troy, New York;
Whereas, in February 1864, Kate Mullany formed and led the Collar Laundry Union
of Troy, the first bona fide all-female union in the United States, to
press for higher wages and safer work conditions after employers had
repeatedly ignored collar laundresses' demands for fair pay;
Whereas, on February 23, 1864, Kate Mullany led 300 women on strike for 5 and a
half days as part of the newly established union;
Whereas the Collar Laundry Union of Troy successfully gained a 25-percent wage
increase and improved working conditions with support from the Troy Iron
Molders Union No. 2 and the community at large, legitimizing and
elevating itself as a prominent organization in Troy's growing labor
movement;
Whereas Kate Mullany again led the Collar Laundry Union of Troy in a second
strike in 1866, successfully raising workers' wages from $8 to $14 a
week, and a third strike in 1869, maintaining higher wages for union
members than the lower wages that most working women earned, and
securing benefits that would be available to members even during illness
and family death;
Whereas, in 1868, Kate Mullany traveled to New York City to attend the National
Labor Union meeting alongside only 3 other women delegates: Mary Kellogg
Putnam, Susan B. Anthony, and Mary A. MacDonald;
Whereas Kate Mullany was appointed Assistant Secretary by the National Labor
Union President William Sylvis on the last day of the conference, the
first time in United States history that a woman served as a national
labor union officer;
Whereas, despite dissolving the Collar Laundry Union of Troy in 1870, a union
that had lasted more than twice as long as any other women's union at
the time, Kate Mullany continued to be a leading part of a network of
labor activists and helped author the resolution of the Working Women's
State Labor Union of New York in support of cooperatives;
Whereas a local newspaper claimed there were not enough women in New York to be
labor organizers, and Kate Mullany responded confidently: ``You show me
the women and I'll turn them into organizers.'';
Whereas Kate Mullany was inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame in
Seneca Falls, New York, in 2000 where it is noted: ``As a labor leader
and organizer, Mullany is one of early American labor history's most
important women'', and into the Labor's International Hall of Fame in
Detroit, Michigan, in 2018;
Whereas the enduring legacy of Kate Mullany is as a legendary champion in the
struggle for economic and social justice for America's working class,
and a role model for subsequent generations of working women; and
Whereas the Kate Mullany House at 350 Eighth Street in Troy, New York, was
designated a National Historic Landmark by the Secretary of the Interior
in 1998 and a National Historic Site by an Act of Congress in 2004, and
is owned and being restored by the American Labor Studies Center: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the life of Kate Mullany attests to the experience of
working women in 19th century America and their struggle to
obtain safe working conditions, reasonable wages, and respect
from the entire American labor movement;
(2) Kate Mullany demonstrated the indomitable will of
working women everywhere who continue to fight for equal pay
and equal opportunity in workplaces through union organizing
and collective bargaining; and
(3) Kate Mullany reflected the best American tradition of
using her intellect and courage to overcome outdated barriers
tied to gender, live and work with dignity, and have the
confidence to pursue her dreams both in her careers and with
her loved ones.

which was referred to the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for developing supportive, inclusive, safe, and
responsive public schools that provide all students with a well-rounded
education and prepare all students for success in life and for the
exercise of their social and economic rights, fostering parental
involvement in education in a manner that builds partnerships and trust
between parents and educators, and protecting the civil rights of
students and families.
Whereas public elementary and secondary education serves a crucial public good
funded through local, State, and Federal funds that should be
administered in a way that provides a free, quality education for
everyone;
Whereas the investment of sufficient resources is necessary to high-functioning,
responsive public elementary and secondary schools;
Whereas public elementary and secondary education has been a cornerstone of
democracy since its inception and provides opportunities for social
mobility and economic empowerment for all students;
Whereas all students benefit from opportunities to learn in diverse, well-funded
elementary and secondary schools alongside peers who have had different
life experiences, speak a different language, practice a different
religion, celebrate different traditions, have a disability, or live in
a family different from their own;
Whereas all students benefit from an education that helps them develop digital,
scientific, mathematical, civic, and other forms of literacy and develop
creative skills, and all students benefit when they gain the skills and
knowledge that will enable them to make good decisions, treat others
with respect, and contribute positively to their community and the
Nation;
Whereas all elementary and secondary students benefit from the opportunity to
receive a comprehensive, well-rounded education that includes the arts
and humanities, which provide their own educational benefit while also
benefitting performance in other subjects;
Whereas a well-rounded education provides all students with the skills and
knowledge they need to contribute to the building of a multiracial,
multiethnic, diverse, and inclusive democracy;
Whereas the opportunity to learn about people with a disability, inclusion of
people with disabilities, and the diversity of disability communities
across race, ethnicity, religion, and other identities supports
education and well-being for young people with disabilities and all
young people;
Whereas all students benefit from the opportunity to receive an elementary and
secondary education that encourages them to understand the history of
the Nation, the difficult and encouraging parts of its history, and its
potential to serve as a model for the world;
Whereas a complete and historically accurate education affirms and validates
diversity and imparts honesty, integrity, and courage in students to
advance the unfinished work of achieving racial and gender equality;
Whereas all elementary and secondary students benefit from the opportunity to
see themselves reflected in educational materials, including in books,
lesson plans, and other materials;
Whereas all elementary and secondary students benefit from attending a school
with an adequate number of school psychologists, counselors, or social
workers to support their mental health and well-being and provide
support during crisis;
Whereas a well-educated populace and equal access to high-quality public
elementary and secondary schools are vital to the functioning of a
representative democracy;
Whereas local, State, and Federal policies include a broad, inclusive definition
of a parent that accounts for students living with another individual or
family member serving as their guardian or caregiver;
Whereas public elementary and secondary schools have been immeasurably enriched
by the advocacy and involvement of parents and community members, and
student learning is best supported by the full involvement of families
in education;
Whereas all parents want and deserve the best for their children, including
safe, affirming, inclusive, and supportive learning environments where
parents are treated with dignity and provided opportunities to engage
with and contribute to their child's school community;
Whereas parents are eager to partner with their children's educators in
collaborative, productive, and meaningful ways;
Whereas providing parents with the opportunity to work in partnership with
educators and school leaders toward the improvement of teaching,
learning, and school leadership is an important part of building and
sustaining excellent schools;
Whereas parents with access to information in a language and format they
understand are better able to contribute to the school community and
support the success of all children;
Whereas parents benefit from access to information about how students in their
child's school are performing in relation to State-set academic and
school climate standards;
Whereas racially, culturally, linguistically, and socioeconomically diverse
parents should be given the opportunity to become meaningfully involved
in a school community and develop close and lasting connections with
educators and school leaders;
Whereas parent involvement is complementary and essential to, not separate from,
the work of educators, support staff members, and school leaders;
Whereas over the years some students and their families have been excluded from
public elementary and secondary schools on the basis of their actual or
perceived race or ethnicity, the languages they speak, whether they have
a disability, actual or perceived LGBTQI+ identity, if they are pregnant
or parenting, if they are a religious minority, or where their family
comes from;
Whereas hostile school environments that discourage families with LGBTQI+
members, multilingual families, families where parents or children have
disabilities, or others from joining in the school environment create
additional barriers to parental involvement;
Whereas parents and other community members with perspectives about the
direction and leadership of an elected or appointed Board of a school
district are encouraged to peacefully and nonviolently exercise their
First Amendment rights to voice those concerns during public Board
meetings;
Whereas all people in the school community benefit from being treated with
respect and dignity, including by the use of their own pronouns and
name;
Whereas all elementary and secondary students benefit from the opportunity to
participate fully and as their whole selves in extracurricular
activities where they can learn about teamwork, persistence, and
competition;
Whereas discrimination against any student or their family under any
circumstance undermines the learning environment for all students and
damages trust between students and educators, educators and families,
and schools and the communities in which they are located;
Whereas age-appropriateness is one important consideration in developing
classroom materials and providing access to reading materials and should
support, not undermine, the opportunity of students to learn about and
celebrate people who are similar to and different from them and their
families;
Whereas censorship and denying students access to books by and about people who
are Black, Indigenous, or other people of color, LGBTQI+, religious
minorities, or members of other marginalized groups, or who are living
at the intersection of these and other identities, undermine the
education of all students, take choices away from all students and their
families, and limit the opportunities of parents, families, and children
to access an education and think critically about the world around them;
Whereas research has shown that all elementary and secondary students benefit
from educators with diverse backgrounds;
Whereas research has shown that all elementary and secondary students benefit
from educators who are adequately prepared, supported by school leaders,
and fairly compensated;
Whereas all students benefit from educators who are culturally competent and
well-trained on diversity, equity, and inclusion principles;
Whereas access to a diversity of educators and age-appropriate reading
materials, including those that feature people with whom they have
differences and share similarities, is critical to learning about the
world and developing a sense of belonging and social responsibility;
Whereas educators who have access to support for their mental and emotional
health better support their students' academic achievement and foster
more positive classroom environments;
Whereas limitations placed on how educators can address topics related to race,
gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity limit their ability to
meet students' educational needs and teach to State academic standards,
while also negatively affecting educators' working conditions and
students' learning conditions; and
Whereas threats against or attacks on educators and school personnel are harmful
to those being threatened or attacked, their families, and the school
community: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the importance of sufficiently supporting
public elementary and secondary schools so they can provide all
students with a well-rounded education that prepares them for
success in life and provides social mobility and economic
empowerment;
(2) celebrates and encourages the engagement of elementary
and secondary students and their parents in education, and the
collaboration between parents, educators, school leaders, and
community members with the goal of supporting student learning,
growth, and development;
(3) urges the adoption of educational materials by
elementary and secondary schools that are historically
accurate, reflect the powerful diversity of the Nation, and
prepare students to think critically and participate actively
in a multiracial and multiethnic democracy; and
(4) promotes the implementation of practices that reduce
disparities, eliminate discrimination, and make elementary and
secondary schools safer, more inclusive, and more supportive
for all students.

H. RES. 22
Condemning and opposing the unprovoked invasion and egregious act of
aggression against the sovereign state of Ukraine by the Russian
Federation.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 11, 2023
Ms. Jackson Lee submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committee
on Transportation and Infrastructure, for a period to be subsequently
determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such
provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Condemning and opposing the unprovoked invasion and egregious act of
aggression against the sovereign state of Ukraine by the Russian
Federation.
Whereas Ukraine was the second-most populous and powerful of the 15 republics of
the former and disintegrated Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the
hub of the Union's agricultural production, defense industries, and
military arsenal;
Whereas in the three decades since gaining its independence, Ukraine has sought
to forge its own path as a sovereign state and sought closer economic,
social, and political ties with the free market and democratic nations
of the West;
Whereas, in February 2014, the military of the Russian Federation, without merit
or cause, invaded the eastern part of the free and independent country
of Ukraine, including the Crimean Peninsula, and backed a separatist
insurgency in the Donbas region in eastern Ukraine, where fighting has
killed over 14,000 people;
Whereas the United States, a strategic ally of Ukraine, reacted swiftly to the
Russian invasion, condemning the military action in strong and
bipartisan fashion, and providing military, humanitarian, and
nonmilitary financial assistance to the determined but beleaguered
nation of Ukraine, which since 2014 has totaled approximately $1.5
billion;
Whereas, on September 14, 2014, the House of Representatives adopted H. Res.
726, a resolution supporting the right of the people of Ukraine to
freely determine their future, including their country's relationship
with other nations and international organizations, without
interference, intimidation, or coercion by other countries, and
committed itself to solidarity with the people of Ukraine;
Whereas interference and unprovoked aggressions by the Russian Federation
ordered and led by Vladimir Putin continued unabated, including the
mobilization and stationing of 150,000 Russian troops surrounding
Ukraine and armed forces positioned in Belarus to attack Ukraine from
the north, including war planes and offensive missile systems, and the
movement of Russian naval vessels in the Black Sea to Ukraine's south,
including amphibious assault ships, missile cruisers, and submarines,
and the positioning of blood and medical equipment into position on
their border;
Whereas Vladimir Putin sought authorization from the Russian Parliament to use
military force outside of Russian territory by staging a fraudulent on-
camera meeting of his Security Council to grandstand for the Russian
public and by recognizing sovereign Ukrainian territory as so-called
independent republics in clear violation, again, of international law,
all of which was intended to set the stage for further pretexts and
further provocations by the Russian Federation to make further
aggressions against Ukraine by military action;
Whereas Vladimir Putin rejected every good-faith effort the United States and
its allies and partners made to address mutual security concerns through
dialogue to avoid needless conflict and avert human suffering;
Whereas, on February 24, 2022, the Russian Federation military, at the direction
of Vladimir Putin, began a premeditated brutal assault on the people of
Ukraine without provocation, without justification, and without
necessity, making outlandish, false, and baseless claims that Ukraine
was about to invade and launch a war against Russia and that Ukraine was
prepared to use chemical weapons, and that Ukraine had committed a
genocide; and
Whereas these actions were taken by Vladimir Putin at the very moment that the
United Nations Security Council was meeting to stand up for Ukraine's
sovereignty to stave off invasion, culminating in missile strikes on
historic cities across Ukraine, followed by air raids and the invasion
of Russian tanks and troops: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) strongly condemns and opposes the unprovoked invasion
and egregious act of aggression against the sovereign state of
Ukraine by the Russian Federation, the most provocative and
destabilizing act of foreign aggression since the 1938 invasion
of the Sudetenland by the Third Reich led by Adolph Hitler;
(2) supports the right of the people of Ukraine to freely
determine their future, including their country's relationship
with other nations and international organizations, without
interference, intimidation, or coercion by other countries;
(3) is committed to promoting democratic values,
transparent and accountable government institutions, and
supports needed economic structural reforms in Ukraine,
including in the fiscal, energy, pension, and banking sectors,
among others;
(4) calls upon and commends the Biden administration for
assembling and working with an international coalition of the
World's leading nations to ensure that all nations refuse to
recognize the illegal invasion of Ukraine by the Russian
Federation and to ensure that the Russian Federation is held
accountable and sustains maximum economic damage from the
imposition of sanctions as a consequence of its utter disregard
for international law and norms;
(5) calls upon the Biden administration to ban all Russian
airlines including Aeroflot, from entering the airspace of the
United States or landing on its soil; and
(6) calls upon and commends the Biden administration for
honoring and abiding by the commitments undertaken by the
United States pursuant to Article 5 of the North Atlantic
Treaty, signed at Washington, District of Columbia, on April 4,
1949, and entered into force on August 24, 1949.

H. RES. 220
Recognizing violence against women in politics as a global phenomenon
and supporting women's full and meaningful participation in political
life.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Ms. Tlaib (for herself, Ms. Pressley, Ms. Omar, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, and
Ms. Bush) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in
each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the
jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing violence against women in politics as a global phenomenon
and supporting women's full and meaningful participation in political
life.
Whereas women have been on the front lines of social justice movements around
the world and throughout our Nation's history;
Whereas women are underrepresented in politics across the globe, comprising only
one-quarter of all legislators worldwide;
Whereas women are underrepresented at every level of government in the United
States;
Whereas, despite this disproportionate underrepresentation, the presence of
women in political institutions, including women officeholders and staff
with diverse racial, ethnic, religious, sexual, and class identities,
has increased significantly in the United States in recent years;
Whereas violence against women is a systemic problem embedded in many aspects of
our society, including our most esteemed political institutions;
Whereas violence against women in politics is a specific, gendered phenomenon
stemming from a resistance to women's increased political participation
and intending to undermine women as political actors;
Whereas violence against women in politics occurs at both individual and
institutional levels and takes many forms, in person and online,
including misogynistic verbal attacks, sexual harassment, death threats,
and economic, psychological, or physical violence meant to discourage
women from participating fully in the political arena;
Whereas research shows that violence against women in politics is a global
phenomenon;
Whereas a 2016 United States Agency for International Development (USAID) report
revealed the prevalence of violence against women in politics in 40
developing countries and outlined steps to combat it;
Whereas a 2016 Inter-Parliamentary Union survey of women parliamentarians from
39 countries found that 81.8 percent of respondents were subjected to
psychological violence, 44.4 percent of whom received threats of death,
rape, beatings, or abduction during their parliamentary terms, including
threats to kidnap or kill their children;
Whereas research, including a 2019 report from the National Democratic Institute
for International Affairs, has shown that women candidates and other
politically involved women are more likely than men to experience abuse
and harassment on social media platforms;
Whereas a 2020 report from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue found that both
Democratic and Republican women officeholders received a higher share of
abusive comments on social media platforms in comparison to their male
peers;
Whereas a 2021 study published by the Wilson Center observed that gendered and
sexualized narratives were potent weapons in disinformation campaigns
targeting women leaders in the United States and abroad;
Whereas a 2018 Amnesty International report revealed the intersectional nature
of online, gender-based violence by highlighting the experiences of
women of color, women from ethnic and religious minorities, women with
disabilities, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender women, and nonbinary
individuals;
Whereas a 2018 report from an expert group meeting convened by the United
Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women
indicated that women of color and women of marginalized communities are
disproportionately affected by violence against women in politics
worldwide;
Whereas findings from a 2017 survey of United States mayors conducted by 6
political scientists revealed that women are more likely than their male
counterparts to experience physical and psychological abuse;
Whereas there have been documented instances of violence against women in the
United States Congress, including shootings, assault, sexual harassment,
nonconsensual distribution of intimate visual depictions, death threats,
and sexist verbal attacks;
Whereas violence against women in politics has been found to limit women's civic
engagement as well as discourage and discredit women's political
participation;
Whereas a 2017 USAID report called for increased attention to the issue of
violence against women in politics as well as further research on its
manifestation within various political contexts, including protests,
polling places, campaigns, political parties, and government
institutions; and
Whereas a 2019 report by the Center for American Women and Politics noted the
presence of violence against women in politics during the 2018 midterm
elections and called for more research to fully understand the
prevalence of such violence across all levels of government, how other
identities like race and ethnicity shape experiences of gendered abuse
and harassment, and how these experiences affect the emergence of female
political candidates in the United States: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports women's full and meaningful participation in
political life;
(2) recognizes violence against women in politics as a form
of gender-based violence that is specific to women's
experiences in the political arena;
(3) recognizes that violence against women in politics is a
global phenomenon and that more research should be conducted to
examine the extent and effects of such violence in the United
States; and
(4) urges the United States Government to adopt policies
that promote women's political participation and mitigate
violence against women in politics, in person and online, in
the United States and abroad.

H. RES. 221
Expressing support for designation of March 14, 2023, as ``National Pi
Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Mr. Foster (for himself, Ms. Bonamici, Mr. Casten, Mr. Cohen, Mr.
Fleischmann, Ms. Houlahan, Ms. Kaptur, Mr. Kilmer, Ms. McCollum, Ms.
Tokuda, Mr. Tonko, Mr. Schiff, and Mr. Mullin) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Science, Space, and
Technology
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for designation of March 14, 2023, as ``National Pi
Day''.
Whereas the Greek letter (Pi) is the symbol for the ratio of the circumference
of a circle to its diameter;
Whereas Pi is an irrational number, which will continue infinitely without
repeating, and has been calculated to over 62 trillion digits;
Whereas Pi is a fundamental mathematical constant that has been studied
throughout history and is central in mathematics as well as science and
engineering;
Whereas mathematics and science are a critical part of our children's education;
Whereas aptitude in mathematics, science, and engineering is essential for a
knowledge-based society;
Whereas, according to the 2015 Trends in International Mathematics and Science
Study (TIMSS) survey done by the National Center for Education
Statistics, American children in the fourth and eighth grades were
outperformed by students in other countries including Singapore, South
Korea, Taiwan, and Japan;
Whereas students from underrepresented minorities and from schools with high
poverty rates have lower than average scores on the TIMSS survey;
Whereas, while through eighth grade girls and boys have similar math and science
scores on the TIMSS survey, there is a significant gender gap in math
and physics scores at the end of high school;
Whereas the United States needs to reinforce mathematics and science education
for all students in order to better prepare children for the future and
to succeed in a 21st-century economy;
Whereas the National Science Foundation has been driving innovation in math and
science education at all levels from elementary through graduate
education since its creation 73 years ago;
Whereas mathematics and science can be a fun and interesting part of a child's
education, and learning about Pi can be an engaging way to teach
children about geometry and attract them to study science and
mathematics; and
Whereas Pi can be approximated as 3.14, and thus March 14, 2023, is an
appropriate day for ``National Pi Day'': Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of a ``Pi Day'' and its
celebration around the world;
(2) recognizes the continuing importance of the National
Science Foundation's math and science education programs; and
(3) encourages schools and educators to observe the day
with appropriate activities that teach students about Pi and
engage them about the study of mathematics.

Expressing support for approximately doubling funding for Federal
career and technical education programs.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Mr. Krishnamoorthi submitted the following resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for approximately doubling funding for Federal
career and technical education programs.
Whereas, for many Americans, this post-COVID economic boom is an opportunity to
reskill and upskill, with American workers changing jobs and even
professions in historic numbers;
Whereas the landscape of the 21st century economy is changing, as emerging new
technologies and shifting demands create new opportunities and
challenges;
Whereas there remains a crucial and unaddressed need to train the workforce of
this new economy;
Whereas now is the time to invest in American workers, as the tremendous
economic energy of the post-COVID recovery presents an unparalleled
opportunity to retrain and realign the American workforce for the new
economy, while also providing American workers with the necessary skills
to earn higher wages and attain long-term job security; and
Whereas the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 (20
U.S.C. 2301 et seq.), as reauthorized by the Strengthening Career and
Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (``Perkins V''), is the
primary Federal law developing and supporting career and technical
education programs in secondary and postsecondary education: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) affirms the importance of the Carl D. Perkins Career
and Technical Education Act of 2006 (20 U.S.C. 2301 et seq.)
and other career and technical education programs for training
the skilled workforce of the future and for increasing the
earning potential and job security of American workers;
(2) recognizes that the authorized annual funding for the
Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006 (20
U.S.C. 2301 et seq.), amounting to $1,299,883,892 in fiscal
year 2023, is insufficient to address the need brought on by
the long-term economic realignment and the near-term COVID-19
pandemic; and
(3) urges the Committee on Education and the Workforce to
authorize $13,000,000,000 in new spending for programs under
the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006
(20 U.S.C. 2301 et seq.) and innovative evidence-based career
and technical education over the next 10 years, equaling
approximately double the amount currently authorized by
Congress to such programs.

H. RES. 223
Recognizing the significance of Atlanta, Georgia, as the cradle of the
civil rights movement.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Mr. David Scott of Georgia (for himself, Ms. Williams of Georgia, Mr.
Johnson of Georgia, Mr. Payne, Mr. Bishop of Georgia, and Mr. Davis of
Illinois) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the significance of Atlanta, Georgia, as the cradle of the
civil rights movement.
Whereas, in July 1881, a washerwoman strike of mostly Black women was one of the
first major examples of the impact of Black labor in Atlanta and the
power of coordinated, nonviolent organizing;
Whereas, in 1909, Atlanta University Professor W.E.B. Du Bois was one of the
founders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored
People;
Whereas, on January 15, 1929, civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,
was born in Atlanta;
Whereas, in 1946, African-American community leaders in Atlanta established the
All Citizen's Registration Committee (ACRC) to register voters and
increase involvement in the political process;
Whereas, in 1948, 8 African-American officers were hired to the Atlanta Police
Department, desegregating the city's police force;
Whereas, in 1949, the Atlanta Negro Voters League (ANVL) was founded to
coordinate political advocacy and bolster the power of African-American
voters;
Whereas, in 1956, Atlanta was the site of the ``Sugar Bowl Riots'', when
Pittsburgh Panthers football player Bobby Grier became the first African
American to play in a bowl game in the Deep South;
Whereas, in 1957, Dr. King and Ralph David Abernathy formed the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) to develop and implement
nonviolent protest strategies and advance the fight for equal voting
rights;
Whereas, on October 12, 1958, the Hebrew Benevolent Congregation Temple was
bombed by White supremacists due to Rabbi Jacob Rothschild, the Temple's
Rabbi, and its congregation's active and vocal support for civil rights
and integration;
Whereas, in 1959, local activism led to the desegregation of Atlanta public
transit services;
Whereas, in 1960, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was
headquartered in Atlanta and chaired by the honorable John Lewis, to
focus the energy and efforts of students participating in the civil
rights movement;
Whereas, in 1960, the Atlanta University Center (AUC) established the Atlanta
Student Movement to lead sit-ins to protest segregation in public
facilities;
Whereas, in 1960, Dr. King, along with 52 other activists, was arrested at an
Atlanta department store lunch counter sit-in while protesting
segregation;
Whereas, in 1961, Morehouse College student Charles Black led demonstrations
against the lack of African-American health care workers in Atlanta
health facilities, eventually leading to the desegregation of Grady
Memorial Hospital;
Whereas the Atlanta-based SCLC was critical in securing the passage of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, highly
consequential pieces of legislation that guarantee full rights and equal
protection of the law for all Americans;
Whereas, in 1964, the landmark Supreme Court case Heart of Atlanta Motel, Inc.
v. United States found that the Federal Government had the power to
enforce the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and prohibit discrimination on the
basis of race;
Whereas political advocacy efforts in Atlanta were instrumental in promoting the
passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of
1965, the crown jewels of the civil rights movement;
Whereas, in 1965, partially as a result of the successes of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, 11 Black people were elected
to the Georgia House of Representatives, including Atlanta-based civil
rights organizer Julian Bond;
Whereas, in 1968, 150,000 people joined in Dr. King's funeral procession through
the streets of Atlanta, to honor his memory and demonstrate that further
action was needed to advance the cause of equality;
Whereas political advocacy efforts in Atlanta were instrumental in promoting the
passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, parts of which are commonly
called the Fair Housing Act, which prohibits housing discrimination on
the basis of race, religion, nationality, disability, or sex;
Whereas, in 1972, Andrew Young was elected to Congress from Atlanta, becoming
the first Black representative from the Deep South since Reconstruction;
Whereas, in 1973, Maynard Jackson was elected as Atlanta's first African-
American mayor, also becoming the first African-American mayor in the
Deep South, providing inspiration to civil servants and voters across
the United States;
Whereas, in 1976, the Sweet Auburn Historical District in Atlanta was designated
as a National Historic Landmark District for its significance as a
prosperous African-American neighborhood and center of commerce;
Whereas, in 1977, Atlantan Andrew Young was appointed as the first Black United
States Ambassador to the United Nations;
Whereas, in 1981, the honorable John Lewis began his career as an elected
official as a member of the Atlanta City Council;
Whereas, in 1986, the honorable John Lewis was elected to represent Atlanta in
the House of Representatives, where he would go on to serve for 33
years;
Whereas Atlanta has ascended as a global city and a world-class leader in
business, entrepreneurship, athletics, transportation, politics, social
equity, faith, culture, education, health, and science;
Whereas Atlanta's reputation for cohesive economic achievement has earned it the
nickname ``The City Too Busy to Hate'';
Whereas Atlanta is home to numerous stellar institutes of higher learning,
including Morehouse College, Morehouse School of Medicine, Clark Atlanta
University, Spelman College, Morris Brown College, and the Georgia
Institute of Technology; and
Whereas Atlanta continues to be recognized as a center of diversity,
inclusivity, excellence, and social, economic, and educational
opportunity for all: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes Atlanta's significance as the cradle of the
civil rights movement for the city's immense contributions to
the cause of equal rights; and
(2) honors Atlanta's role as a dynamic, vibrant city that
continues to lead by example to show the success that is
possible when Americans are given equal opportunities to pursue
excellence.

H. RES. 224
Raising awareness of the racial disparities in the impact of colorectal
cancer on the Black community.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 10, 2023
Mrs. Watson Coleman (for herself, Mr. Payne, Ms. Pressley, Mrs. Beatty,
Mr. Meeks, Mr. Cohen, Ms. Clarke of New York, and Mr. Thompson of
Mississippi) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Raising awareness of the racial disparities in the impact of colorectal
cancer on the Black community.
Whereas colorectal cancer, or CRC, is the third-most common cancer in the United
States for men and women combined, and the second leading cause of
cancer death;
Whereas this disease takes the lives of more than 50,000 people each year;
Whereas the rate of CRC is 21 percent higher among Black men and is 18.5 percent
higher among Black women than compared to non-Hispanic Whites;
Whereas the rate of CRC death is 31.5 percent higher among Black men and is 24.4
percent higher among Black women than compared to non-Hispanic Whites;
Whereas CRC is the third-leading cause of cancer death in both Black men and
women in the United States;
Whereas Black Americans have the lowest 5-year survival rate for CRC of any
racial group in the United States;
Whereas deaths from colorectal cancer among people younger than 55 have
increased one percent per year from 2008 to 2017;
Whereas the tragic death of 43-year-old actor Chadwick Boseman from colorectal
cancer has catalyzed more conversation about CRC's impact on the Black
community;
Whereas, by 2030, it is expected that CRC will be the leading cause of death
among people ages 20 to 49; and
Whereas CRC has a 90-percent survival rate when caught at the earliest stage and
there are many screening methods available: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the deadly impact colorectal cancer has to
the American people;
(2) acknowledges the racial disparity that the Black
community faces when dealing with colorectal cancer;
(3) encourages the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention to continue and expand their work to identify those
factors that result in the colorectal racial screening
disparity and develop effective strategies to reduce and
ultimately eliminate racial disparities in colorectal
screening;
(4) encourages everyone get colorectal cancer screening
when recommended by the United States Preventive Services Task
Force;
(5) encourages the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention to conduct research to determine any environmental
factors, and the National Institutes of Health to conduct
research into any physiological factors that cause an elevated
risk for colorectal cancer in young adults; and
(6) urges State health plans to quickly adopt new measures
to cover colorectal screenings for individuals at a lower age,
with special consideration for the Black community and all
those at higher risk for colorectal cancer.

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Ms. Bonamici (for herself, Mrs. Watson Coleman, Ms. Tokuda, Mr. Case,
and Ms. Titus) submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of the third week of March 2023
as ``National CACFP Week''.
Whereas the Department of Agriculture reaffirms the vital role positive
nutritional habits play in the healthy growth of children in the United
States;
Whereas the Department of Agriculture also recognizes the importance of
nutritional education for the most vulnerable and youngest children, as
well as adults, through care centers and homes throughout the United
States;
Whereas the child and adult care food program (commonly referred to as
``CACFP'') provides daily meals and snacks to more than 4,200,000
children and 138,000 adults in child care centers, adult day care homes,
and after-school programs daily, covering the costs of nearly
2,100,000,000 nutritious meals and snacks each year;
Whereas research has found that participation in CACFP reduces the prevalence of
children who are overweight or underweight, which highlights the
continual importance of updated and accurate nutritional information;
Whereas CACFP increases the quality of child care, especially for children in
low-income communities;
Whereas 16,000 child care centers currently face permanent closure because of
increased costs and burdens from the COVID-19 pandemic;
Whereas CACFP increases the effectiveness and viability of child care centers
and adult day care homes for many providers, especially in rural areas;
Whereas CACFP improves the cognitive, social, emotional, and physical health and
development of children, leading to more favorable outcomes such as--
(1) a decreased likelihood of being hospitalized;
(2) an increased likelihood of healthy weight gain; and
(3) an increased likelihood of a more varied diet, including increased
consumption of vegetables;
Whereas the innovative approach to CACFP implementation, which pairs child care
homes and centers, adult day care centers, and after-school sites with
either a nonprofit sponsoring organization or a State agency, highlights
a unique public-private partnership that supports working families and
small businesses; and
Whereas the third week of March is annually recognized as ``National CACFP
Week'' to raise awareness of the child and adult care food program of
the Department of Agriculture: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the role of the child and adult care food
program (commonly referred to as ``CACFP'') in improving the
health of the country's most vulnerable children and adults in
child care centers, adult day care homes, and after-school care
by providing nutritious meals and snacks;
(2) urges support for continuing to strengthen CACFP by
offering reimbursement for an additional meal or snack for
children in care for a full day, offering annual eligibility to
for-profit child care centers, and reducing administrative
burdens to participation;
(3) acknowledges that CACFP can, and should, be an
important tool in reducing the costs faced by the care economy,
including for family, friend, and neighbor care and licensed
center-based care; and
(4) supports the designation of ``National CACFP Week''.

H. RES. 226
Supporting the goals and ideals of National Middle Level Education
Month.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Grijalva (for himself and Mr. Garcia of Illinois) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Education
and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the goals and ideals of National Middle Level Education
Month.
Whereas the National Association of Secondary School Principals, the Association
for Middle Level Education, and the Alliance for Excellent Education
have declared the month of March 2023 as National Middle Level Education
Month;
Whereas schools that educate middle grades students play a critical function in
the Nation's educational system in that they are responsible for
educating young adolescents between the ages of 10 and 15 (grades 5
through 9) that are undergoing rapid and dramatic changes in their
physical, intellectual, social, emotional, and moral development;
Whereas each day over 19,000,000 young adolescents engaged in school deserve the
educational components that research and practice have shown to help
middle grades students achieve, including--
(1) challenging and engaging instruction;
(2) teachers and administrators who are knowledgeable and prepared to
provide young adolescents with a safe, challenging, and supportive learning
environment; and
(3) organizational structures that banish anonymity and promote
personalization, collaboration, and social equity;
Whereas neuroscience indicates that the majority of middle grades students are
in a critical stage of brain development that promotes productive
adulthood;
Whereas the habits and values established during early adolescence have a
critical, lifelong influence that directly impacts the future health and
welfare of the Nation;
Whereas research has found that the academic achievement of eighth grade
students has a larger impact on their readiness for college by the end
of high school than anything that happens academically in high school;
Whereas research has found that middle level education is underfunded, creating
a ``missing middle'' in Federal education funding;
Whereas in order to improve graduation rates and prepare students to be lifelong
learners ready for college, career, and citizenship, a deeper public
understanding of the distinctive mission of middle level education is
necessary; and
Whereas the month of March 2023 has been declared as National Middle Level
Education Month by numerous educational groups: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of National Middle Level
Education Month;
(2) honors and recognizes the importance of middle level
education and the contributions of those who educate this
unique age group; and
(3) encourages the people of the United States to observe
National Middle Level Education Month by taking opportunities
to engage with schools that educate middle grades students and
celebrate the schools that are responsible for educating the
Nation's young adolescents.

H. RES. 227
Recognizing the sovereignty of Ukraine and the unbreakable spirit of
the people of Ukraine.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Kean of New Jersey (for himself, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Ms. Kaptur, Mr.
Lawler, Mr. Keating, and Mr. Quigley) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the sovereignty of Ukraine and the unbreakable spirit of
the people of Ukraine.
Whereas, on February 24, 2022, the Government of the Russian Federation launched
an unprovoked, full-scale, military invasion against Ukraine in direct
violation of international law;
Whereas this full-scale assault is a continuation of the Government of the
Russian Federation's illegal invasion and occupation of Ukraine's
Crimean Peninsula and part of Ukraine's Donetsk and Luhansk regions in
2014;
Whereas contrary to the expectations of the Russian Federation, Ukraine's
capital of Kyiv did not fall in a matter of days, and Ukraine has
prevented Russia from achieving its objectives of conquering Ukraine and
installing a puppet government;
Whereas Russia's invading forces have committed war crimes, crimes against
humanity, and other atrocity crimes in Ukraine, including rape, torture,
murder, the forcible deportation of children, and the targeting of
civilian critical infrastructure;
Whereas the Russian Federation has deployed troops to Belarus, using the country
as a staging ground for attacks into Ukraine and making the Lukashenka
regime complicit in Russia's war against Ukraine;
Whereas Russia's full-scale invasion has created immense humanitarian crisis in
Ukraine and, as a result, over 8,000 civilians have died, roughly
5,400,000 people have been internally displaced, and 17,600,000 people
are in need of humanitarian aid;
Whereas Russia's war has also triggered an immense human and economic toll felt
well beyond Ukraine's border, including a massive influx of over
8,100,000 Ukrainian refugees in Europe and an exacerbation of global
food insecurity;
Whereas, since February 2022, Congress has appropriated over $113,000,000,000 in
humanitarian, economic, and military assistance for Ukraine and other
countries impacted by the conflict, and related funding, which totals
just 0.4 percent of the United States gross domestic product (GDP);
Whereas our European allies and partners have committed more economic and
humanitarian assistance to Ukraine than the United States;
Whereas, as a share of GDP, assistance reportedly provided to Ukraine by
Estonia, Latvia, Poland, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Denmark, the
Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Sweden, and Greece is higher
than that provided by any other country including the United States, and
many other European countries have provided an amount of assistance
comparable to the United States as a share of their GDP;
Whereas, as a share of a country's defense budget, 12 countries have provided
more military aid to Ukraine than the United States;
Whereas the United Kingdom has provided the second-most military assistance to
Ukraine after the United States and was the first country to pledge
Western main battle tanks, provide significantly longer range missiles,
and train Ukrainian pilots on advanced Western fighter jets;
Whereas Poland has been a regional leader in supporting the people of Ukraine,
including by processing the border crossing of over 9,900,000 refugees
from Ukraine and facilitating their onward movement to other European
countries, caring for over 1,500,000 Ukrainian refugees currently
residing in Poland, providing training for Ukrainian soldiers in Poland
on various weapons systems, including Leopard 2 tanks, and being the
third-largest provider of military assistance to Ukraine;
Whereas, as a result of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Sweden and
Finland have applied for NATO membership which would greatly bolster the
security and strength of the alliance;
Whereas European countries have generously accepted and cared for over 7,800,000
Ukrainian refugees who have fled from Russia's war, including more than
4,000,000 Ukrainians who have registered for temporary protection in the
European Union (EU), at an estimated cost of $18,000,000,000 in EU
funding and billions more in funds from individual EU member states; and
Whereas the Ukraine Oversight Working Group, led by the inspector generals (IGs)
from the Department of Defense, Department of State, and the United
States Agency for International Development, is following a coordinated
Joint Plan to ensure transparent oversight of and accountability for the
United States assistance to Ukraine, and the IGs have completed 14
reviews and have 64 ongoing or planned reviews related to the United
States Ukraine response: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) demands that the Government of the Russian Federation
respect Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity as well
as immediately withdraw all of its forces from inside the
internationally recognized borders of Ukraine;
(2) affirms its strong support for continued United States
support to Ukraine, specifically the transfer of lethal aid to
enable Ukraine to liberate its sovereign territory and win the
war as soon as possible;
(3) appreciates those United States allies and partners
that have provided significant support to Ukraine and urges
their continued and increased assistance to Ukraine;
(4) calls on allies and partners in Europe to increase
national defense spending in order to bolster trans-Atlantic
security;
(5) affirms the importance of robust transparency and
accountability mechanisms for United States assistance to
Ukraine to ensure its proper and effective use; and
(6) condemns Russian war crimes, crimes against humanity,
and other atrocity crimes in the strongest terms and calls for
accountability for those involved, including at all levels of
Russian leadership.

1st Session
H. RES. 228
Recognizing the Kingdom of Bhutan as responsible for the oppression and
forced eviction of more than 100,000 Bhutanese citizens during the late
1980s and 1990s.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Khanna submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the Kingdom of Bhutan as responsible for the oppression and
forced eviction of more than 100,000 Bhutanese citizens during the late
1980s and 1990s.
Whereas the Kingdom of Bhutan was responsible for the oppression and forced
displacement of more than 100,000 Nepali language-speaking Bhutanese
citizens, Lhotshampas and Sharchops, in the 1990s due to their identity,
culture, language, religion, and political opinion;
Whereas many of these individuals experienced unjust detention, torture, and
other forms of human rights abuses;
Whereas many political prisoners continue to be held in Bhutanese prisons for
protracted sentences;
Whereas persecuted Bhutanese were forced to cross into Nepal, where some
remained for nearly two decades in refugee camps;
Whereas thousands of Bhutanese refugees remain in refugee camps in Nepal, and
the Government of Bhutan continues to deny dignified repatriation to
those who desire it;
Whereas more than 250,000 Nepali-speaking Lhotshampa Bhutanese still inside
Bhutan suffer political, social, and economic oppression as the
Government of Bhutan has continuously refused to reinstate the
citizenships that were stripped during the 1990s;
Whereas such incidences of human rights violations and abuses and extreme acts
of violence perpetrated by any individual actor or State should be
condemned;
Whereas the majority of the Nepali-speaking Lhotshampa, who were refugees in
Nepal, have now resettled in other countries, including Australia,
Canada, Denmark, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, the United Kingdom,
and the United States;
Whereas, although Bhutan and the United States have not established diplomatic
relations, the two countries maintain warm and productive unofficial
ties;
Whereas the Kingdom of Bhutan transitioned to democracy in 2008 and has held
successive free and fair elections and transitions of power since that
time;
Whereas the Kingdom of Bhutan has been a leader in the global fight against
climate change and is the only carbon negative country;
Whereas the Kingdom of Bhutan has stood with the United States and other like-
minded countries as the United Nations to condemn Russian aggression in
Ukraine; and
Whereas, the Kingdom of Bhutan is a close Indo-Pacific partner of the United
States committed to upholding the rules-based international order: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) declares that the Royal Government of Bhutan is
responsible for the political, cultural, and ethnic oppression
of Nepali-speaking Lhotshampas and Sharchops in Bhutan during
the late 1980s and 1990s;
(2) urges the Royal Government of Bhutan to conduct a rapid
and unconditional release of all political prisoners, whose
crime was demanding democracy and human rights, with due
restitution and reparations;
(3) in a spirit of friendship, urges the Royal Government
of Bhutan to resume discussions with the Government of Nepal on
the status of individuals in Nepal who assert a claim to Bhutan
citizenship or residency;
(4) requests the Royal Government of Bhutan to restore
citizenship for all Nepali-speaking Lhotshampas that have had
it arbitrarily revoked;
(5) requests the Royal Government of Bhutan to accept the
voluntary return of its citizens from the refugee camps in
Nepal; and
(6) urges the Royal Government of Bhutan to enter into a
holistic peace building and reconciliation process and
institute an independent Truth Commission to publicly
investigate any human rights violations and abuses committed
during the 1990s, publish its findings, and follow through on
its recommendations to ensure no future displacement or
oppression of Nepali-speaking Lhotshampas and other minorities
in Bhutan.

H. RES. 229
Recognizing the significance of the 1973 New Mexico Bilingual
Multicultural Education Act on its 50th anniversary and the importance
of cultivating education in both the mother tongue as well as English
for the preservation of culture, identity, and Indigenous knowledge.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Ms. Leger Fernandez submitted the following resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the significance of the 1973 New Mexico Bilingual
Multicultural Education Act on its 50th anniversary and the importance
of cultivating education in both the mother tongue as well as English
for the preservation of culture, identity, and Indigenous knowledge.
Whereas, when New Mexico became a territory of the United States in 1848, the
predominant languages spoken were Dine (Navajo), Jicarilla and Mescalero
Apache, Keres, Tiwa, Towa, Tewa, Zuni, and Spanish;
Whereas the citizens of the New Mexico territory recognized the importance of
maintaining Spanish and these Indigenous languages, and rejected and
resisted attempts to eradicate these languages as a precondition for
becoming a State;
Whereas, when New Mexico was finally admitted as a State in 1912, its
constitution provided for the education of teachers and students in
Spanish;
Whereas Indigenous leaders recognized that their language was a gift from their
creator which was essential for them to continue teaching successive
generations of their purpose, way of life, customs, and laws;
Whereas Senator Matias Chacon introduced bill 421, the Bilingual Multicultural
Education Act to the New Mexico State Legislature in 1973 in
collaboration with several bilingual education advocates including
Senator Ray Leger and Mela Leger, the director of bilingual education in
the West Las Vegas schools;
Whereas New Mexico was the first State to adopt a bilingual multicultural
education law, and the New Mexico Bilingual Multicultural Education Act
is the only State legislation that acknowledges culture as an important
part of language acquisition;
Whereas, since 1973, New Mexico has allocated State funds to districts for the
implementation of bilingual multicultural education programs, and 70
percent of New Mexico school districts currently implement bilingual
multicultural education programs;
Whereas the New Mexico 520 Alternative Certificate allows members of New
Mexico's 22 Pueblos and Tribal Nations to teach their respective
languages in New Mexico public schools;
Whereas, pursuant to section 2A of the New Mexico Bilingual Multicultural
Education Act of 1973, a ``bilingual multicultural education program''
is a program where children learn through 2 languages, enhance and
foster a positive understanding of the cultures of their environment,
and participate in ``the wealth and beauty of such a rich cultural
heritage'' in ``the pluralistic society in which we now live'';
Whereas bilingual multicultural education supports emergent bilingual students,
prepares all students to participate in a multicultural society, and
ensures equal access to education;
Whereas, in 1968, Congress passed the first major Federal legislation concerning
bilingual education, the Bilingual Education Act (BEA), which became the
English Language Acquisition, Language Enhancement, and Academic
Achievement Act;
Whereas the State Court held in Yazzie/Martinez v. State of New Mexico that the
State failed to provide adequate education for students, particularly
low-income students, English learners, Native Americans, and students
with disabilities, thus requiring the State to ensure schools have the
necessary resources, including sufficient funding, to provide all
students with equal access to education;
Whereas New Mexico is 1 of the 49 States that has approved a Seal of Biliteracy;
Whereas New Mexico is 1 of at least 39 States that provides for training,
professional development, teaching standards, certification, or
endorsements for alternative language teachers in statute or regulation;
Whereas Federal legislation has been proposed to create grants for States to
fund the Seal of Biliteracy program but remains unfulfilled;
Whereas nearly 22 percent of people in the United States speak a language other
than English at home, and the Census Bureau reported that the 5 most
frequently spoken languages other than English are Spanish or Spanish
Creole, Chinese, Tagalog, Vietnamese, and Arabic;
Whereas there are roughly 245 Indigenous languages spoken across the United
States, and many of these are at risk of extinction with only a small
number of speakers remaining;
Whereas English learners are entitled to receive special services based on the
1974 Supreme Court decision in Lau v. Nichols so that they may learn the
same academic content as English speakers and have access to public
education;
Whereas, in 2002, Public Law 107-110 changed the name of the Office of Bilingual
Education and Minority Languages Affairs at the Department of Education
to the Office of English Language Acquisition, Language Enhancement, and
Academic Achievement for Limited English Proficient Students;
Whereas there are thousands of dual language programs across the country, and
States like California, Massachusetts, Utah, North Carolina, Delaware,
and Washington have moved toward dual language initiatives;
Whereas bilingual multicultural education is beneficial to all students, as it
helps promote the development of a student's home or heritage language,
bilingualism, biliteracy, and global awareness;
Whereas language skills, abilities, and practices are interconnected, and the
more a student's home or heritage language is supported, the stronger
effect it will have on acquiring another language; and
Whereas language is an important aspect of a student's identity and culture, and
studies show that being bilingual or multilingual has several benefits
such as increased problem-solving abilities, increased creativity,
increased concentration skills, increased learning, and increased
interpersonal skills: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports efforts to incorporate bilingual multicultural
education;
(2) supports efforts to encourage the Office of English
Language Acquisition, Language Enhancement, and Academic
Achievement for Limited English Proficient Students to become
the Office of Multilingual Education;
(3) supports creating grants for teacher development to
increase the number of bilingual teachers and professors in the
United States;
(4) supports creating grants to fund the Seal of Biliteracy
program; and
(5) supports efforts to help American-Indian Tribes and
Nations maintain, revitalize, and teach their Indigenous
languages.

Recognizing the catastrophic impact of the 2022 monsoon season in
Pakistan and the devastation inflicted upon the Pakistani people.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 11, 2023
Ms. Jackson Lee submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and in addition to the Committee
on the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently determined by the
Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall
within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the catastrophic impact of the 2022 monsoon season in
Pakistan and the devastation inflicted upon the Pakistani people.
Whereas, in June 2022, catastrophic monsoon rains began in Pakistan and
intensified to Biblical proportions by August, leaving over one-third of
the country under water and directly impacting the lives of 33,000,000
Pakistanis;
Whereas despite flooding having subsided by 56 percent from the July-August
peak, over 1,700 people have lost their lives, one-third of whom were
children, 12,900 people were injured, 20,600,000 currently require
humanitarian assistance, and 7,900,000 have been displaced;
Whereas over 5,500,000 Pakistanis currently do not have access to clean drinking
water, flood waters in many areas remain stagnant, and waterborne
diseases remain a major concern as the floods left the country's most
economically vulnerable regions imperiled and struggling with a
humanitarian catastrophe;
Whereas over 7,000,000 women and children are in desperate need of nutrition and
immediate lifesaving support, with food shortages causing pregnant women
to be at heightened risk of having low birthweight babies, and 1 in 9
Pakistani children suffering from acute malnutrition;
Whereas accelerated glacier melt, brought on by climate change, descending from
the Hindu Kush, Karakoram, and Himalaya mountain ranges in northern
Pakistan, is a major contributing factor to the Indus River's
unprecedented level of overflow and the enormous destruction that
resulted;
Whereas a Post-Disaster Needs Assessment by the Pakistani Ministry of Planning
and Development estimated that the country's economy has sustained a
$15,200,000,000 loss;
Whereas an estimated 2,300,000 homes were damaged or destroyed by the floods,
many of which were swept away, demolished, or rendered uninhabitable,
leaving the housing sector with financial losses estimated to be upwards
of $5,600,000,000;
Whereas the total cost of damage to transportation infrastructure is estimated
to be $281,000,000, 13,000 kilometers of roads were damaged or
destroyed, and about 3,100 kilometers of in-service railway tracks were
damaged, around 40 percent of the country's total in-service railways;
Whereas damage to fiber optic transmission lines, feeder cables, and
transmission towers threatens the performance of Pakistan's
telecommunications infrastructure;
Whereas the floods have resulted in approximately 1,200,000 livestock deaths,
and damaged 9,400,000 acres of agricultural land around the country,
including a 35-percent loss of this year's Kharif season cash crops
including rice and cotton, which are among Pakistan's major exports;
Whereas the flooding's economic implications to the country will long outlast
the persistent standing water, which the World Bank evaluated and
estimated that 2.2 percent of the fiscal year 2022 gross domestic
product was lost as a direct impact of the floods;
Whereas the Pakistani government's ``2022 Post-Disaster Needs Assessment''
suggested that the flooding will cause the country's poverty rate to
increase by up to 4 percentage points, pushing up to 9,000,000 people
newly into poverty;
Whereas Pakistan is a longtime ally and strategic partner of the United States
linked by strong diplomatic relations since Pakistan's independence in
1947;
Whereas, from September 4 through 6, 2022, a congressional delegation visited
the areas in Pakistan that were most severely plagued by the floods;
Whereas the congressional delegation met with Prime Minister Shebaz Sharif,
Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, United States Ambassador Donald
Blome, and the United States Deputy Chief of Mission Andrew Schofer to
assess the damage, receive a briefing from Pakistani military rescuers,
and discuss short-term relief efforts;
Whereas the congressional delegation met with the National Disaster Management
Authority Chairman, Lieutenant General Akhtar Nawaz Satti, who presented
dozens of images of schools, hospitals, bridges, thousands of miles of
roads, and entire towns decimated by the flood water;
Whereas the congressional delegation met with representatives from the Pakistan
Red Crescent and met with Pakistani Climate Minister, Sherry Rehmen, who
provided her assessment of measures necessary for rehabilitation efforts
in the flood-affected areas;
Whereas the congressional delegation flew over the most severely impacted areas
and witnessed devastating human and territorial destruction, with water
extending in every direction, women and children racing to be rescued by
helicopters, and displaced people everywhere who, having been on the
frontlines of the floods, suffered tragic losses;
Whereas the perils in Pakistan have made it unsafe for Pakistanis to return to
their home country amid this crisis, and on September 8, 2022, 19
Members of Congress co-authored a letter to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas
urging the Department of Homeland Security to grant Temporary Protected
Status to eligible Pakistani nationals residing within United States
borders;
Whereas the United States Government has appropriated $83,543,866 in
humanitarian funding for the Pakistan flood response in fiscal years
2022-2023, of which the United States Agency for International
Development has provided Pakistan with $35,924,587 in humanitarian
assistance since August 30, 2022;
Whereas the Governments of France, Japan, Qatar, Jordan, Turkey, and other
nations have provided Pakistan with food and other emergency relief
assistance and the European Commission deployed personnel to support
logistics and supply chain management needs; and
Whereas the House of Representatives supports Pakistan, a longtime friend and
ally of the United States, for moral humanitarian reasons, strategic
reasons, and the importance of maintaining favorable diplomatic
relations: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the United States is a world leader in providing
humanitarian assistance to those in need, and amid the recent
flooding and devastation, will continue to support Pakistan and
its people for humanitarian, diplomatic, and strategic reasons,
and to reinforce the resplendent friendship between our
peoples;
(2) the Biden administration should act expeditiously to
grant Temporary Protected Status to eligible Pakistani
nationals who currently reside in the United States;
(3) the American people stand in solidarity with the people
of Pakistan and share their emotions of sadness during this
grave time and will continue to support Pakistan during the
arduous rebuilding efforts; and
(4) the Pakistani-American community is a treasured and
intrinsic component of American society that feels Pakistan's
tragedy personally, and with whom all Americans are united.

H. RES. 230
Recognizing the contributions of AmeriCorps members and alumni and
AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers to the lives of the people of the United
States.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Ms. Matsui (for herself, Mr. Kilmer, Mr. Neguse, Mr. Graves of
Louisiana, Mr. Boyle of Pennsylvania, Ms. Moore of Wisconsin, Ms.
Norton, Ms. Schakowsky, Mr. Cicilline, Ms. DelBene, Mr. Panetta, Mr.
Larson of Connecticut, Mr. Kim of New Jersey, and Ms. Houlahan)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the contributions of AmeriCorps members and alumni and
AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers to the lives of the people of the United
States.
Whereas, since their inceptions, each of the AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors
national service programs have proven to be a highly effective way--
(1) to bring people of all backgrounds throughout the United States
together in common cause to meet the most pressing challenges of
communities in the United States; and
(2) to promote the ethics of service and volunteerism;
Whereas, each year, more than 200,000 individuals serve in AmeriCorps and
AmeriCorps Seniors at nearly 40,000 locations across the United States
to give back in an intensive way to communities, States, Tribal nations,
and the United States;
Whereas AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors funds have been invested in nonprofit,
community, educational, and faith-based groups, and those funds leverage
hundreds of millions of dollars in outside funding and in-kind support
each year;
Whereas AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers have provided
millions of hours of service nationwide, helping--
(1) to improve the lives of the most vulnerable people of the United
States;
(2) to protect the environment and restore public lands;
(3) to contribute to public safety;
(4) to respond to natural disasters;
(5) to address food insecurity and public health;
(6) to strengthen the educational system of the United States; and
(7) to expand economic opportunity;
Whereas AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers recruit and manage
millions of community volunteers, demonstrating the value of AmeriCorps
as a powerful force for encouraging people to become involved in
volunteering and community service;
Whereas, for more than 5 decades, AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers in the RSVP,
Foster Grandparent, and Senior Companion programs have played an
important role in strengthening communities by sharing their experience,
knowledge, and accomplishments with the individuals they serve;
Whereas, since 1994, more than 1,250,000 AmeriCorps members have taken the
AmeriCorps pledge to ``get things done for America'' through the
AmeriCorps State and National, AmeriCorps VISTA, and AmeriCorps NCCC
programs;
Whereas AmeriCorps members nationwide, in return for the service of those
members, have earned more than $4,400,000,000 to use to further their
own educational advancement at colleges and universities across the
United States and to pay back student loans;
Whereas AmeriCorps is a proven pathway to employment, providing members with
valuable career skills, experience, and contacts to prepare them for the
21st century workforce and to help close the skills gap in the United
States;
Whereas, in 2009, Congress passed the bipartisan Serve America Act (Public Law
111-13; 123 Stat. 1460), which authorized the expansion of national
service, expanded opportunities to serve, increased efficiency and
accountability, and strengthened the capacity of organizations and
communities to solve problems;
Whereas national service programs have engaged millions of people in the United
States in results-driven service in the most vulnerable communities of
the United States, providing hope and help to individuals with economic
and social needs;
Whereas national service and volunteerism demonstrate the best of the spirit of
the United States, with people turning toward problems and working
together to find community solutions; and
Whereas AmeriCorps Week, observed in 2023 from March 12 through March 18, is an
appropriate time for the people of the United States--
(1) to salute current and former AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps
Seniors volunteers for their positive impact on generations of Americans;
(2) to thank the grantees, State service commissions, and community
partners of AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors for making the programs
possible; and
(3) to encourage more people in the United States to become involved in
service and volunteering: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) encourages the people of the United States to join in a
national effort--
(A) to salute AmeriCorps members and alumni and
AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers; and
(B) to raise awareness about the importance of
national and community service;
(2) acknowledges the significant accomplishments of the
members, volunteers, alumni, and community partners of
AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors;
(3) recognizes the important contributions made by
AmeriCorps members and alumni and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers
to the lives of the people of the United States; and
(4) encourages individuals of all ages to consider
opportunities to serve in AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors.

H. RES. 232
Recognizing the importance of sleep health and expressing support for
the designation of the week of March 12 through March 18, 2023, as
``Sleep Awareness Week''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 14, 2023
Mr. Raskin (for himself, Ms. Dean of Pennsylvania, Ms. Brown, Mr.
Bacon, Ms. Sewell, Mr. Grijalva, and Ms. Lofgren) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the importance of sleep health and expressing support for
the designation of the week of March 12 through March 18, 2023, as
``Sleep Awareness Week''.
Whereas sleep is essential for health, well-being, and safety;
Whereas advancing advocacy and promotion of evidence-based sleep health
practices will improve the general health of the public;
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advises that most adults
need at least 7 hours of sleep per night;
Whereas the National Sleep Foundation's 2023 Sleep in America Poll found that 35
percent of Americans say they sleep less than 7 hours per night on
average;
Whereas sleep deprivation can lead to impaired memory, elevated stress levels,
disrupted metabolism, and increased risk of injury and accidents;
Whereas, in the long-term, insufficient sleep can increase the risk of diabetes,
stroke, heart disease, high blood pressure, depression, and other health
conditions;
Whereas insomnia can be a symptom of depression and anxiety, and sleep problems
can also exacerbate or contribute to the onset of mental health
conditions;
Whereas numerous studies have found that Black Americans are less likely than
their White counterparts to get adequate sleep, and that Black Americans
may also be more likely to get lower quality sleep;
Whereas Congress established the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research in
1993 to foster the coordination of sleep and circadian research within
the National Institutes of Health and other Federal agencies;
Whereas, for over two decades, the National Sleep Foundation has organized Sleep
Awareness Week to promote the benefits of healthy sleep and its
importance to overall health and well-being; and
Whereas numerous States and organizations across the Nation recognize and
participate in Sleep Awareness Week: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the importance of sleep health as a way to
increase overall health and well-being;
(2) supports the designation of a ``Sleep Awareness Week'';
(3) supports the goals and efforts of Sleep Awareness Week;
(4) encourages public health officials, health care
providers, educators, and parents to do their part to promote
adequate sleep;
(5) encourages the people of the United States to
prioritize their sleep health, practice good habits for sleep
health, and discuss their sleep with their health care
provider; and
(6) recognizes the continued importance of policies to
improve sleep health.

<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 233
Supporting the designating of March 18, 2023, as ``National Osceola
Turkey Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 17, 2023
Mr. C. Scott Franklin of Florida (for himself and Mr. Webster of
Florida) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the designating of March 18, 2023, as ``National Osceola
Turkey Day''.
Whereas wild turkey has been an important part of the history and family
traditions of the United States;
Whereas wild turkey was on the table at the very first Thanksgiving, and turkey
continues to be a mainstay during many holiday traditions;
Whereas wild turkey is a healthy, organic, and delicious source of lean protein;
Whereas 5 subspecies of wild turkey inhabit North America;
Whereas, in the United States, turkey hunters have spent $76,900,000 per year
since 1985 with an economic impact of $128,700,000 annually;
Whereas Florida has a rich history of wild turkey hunting, management, and
research;
Whereas Florida is home to the Wild Turkey Cost Share Program, which is the
largest public-private partnership program in the United States for the
maintenance of wild turkey habitat on wildlife management areas and
other public lands open to hunting;
Whereas, since the Wild Turkey Cost Share Program began in 1994, upwards of
1,000,000 acres of upland habitat have received funding for turkey
habitat management efforts;
Whereas, in the 2022 Florida spring wild turkey season, 25,290 hunters
participated in turkey hunting, including 4,744 non-residents of the
Sunshine State;
Whereas, in Florida, revenue generated from the sale of wild turkey permits is
used for conservation, research, and management of wild turkeys or to
promote the cultural heritage of hunting;
Whereas turkey hunters are an important part of the Wild Turkey Cost Share
Program, and the money generated from the sale of turkey permits, which
are a requirement for hunting wild turkeys in Florida unless exempt,
allows the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to make
significant contributions to the program each year;
Whereas Florida is home to 2 subspecies of wild turkey, the eastern wild turkey
and the Osceola or Florida wild turkey;
Whereas the Osceola is 1 of 5 subspecies of wild turkey in North America;
Whereas the Osceola turkey exists only in peninsular Florida;
Whereas the Osceola subspecies of wild turkey is often perceived as mysterious
and the most difficult to harvest because of its small geographic range
and the often swampy habitat where it is found;
Whereas hunters in pursuit of all 4 subspecies of turkey in the United States,
known as a ``Grand Slam'', must hunt in Florida; and
Whereas March 4, 2023, is the opening day of turkey harvesting season in part of
Florida, and March 18, 2023, is the opening day for the entire state:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of ``National Osceola Turkey
Day''; and
(2) encourages the people of the United States to observe
the day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Congress' oversight authority;
Whereas the Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
been weaponized against the American people, deviating from its core law
enforcement mission, and has begun targeting Americans in a politicized
manner;
Whereas the Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
attempted to pressure other field offices for no good law enforcement
reason, but to advance a political agenda;
Whereas the Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
suppressed credible investigative leads into criminal conduct and, over
objection of Bureau field offices, initiated investigations into
American citizens for exercising their First Amendment rights;
Whereas the Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
attempted to entrap Members of the Senate by holding false classified
briefings;
Whereas the Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
colluded with private sector companies during elections to censor
factual information harmful to preferred political candidates;
Whereas the Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has
targeted parents critical of school board decisions;
Whereas constructing a new headquarters for the Federal Bureau of Investigation
at this time would distract from critical oversight of this dangerous
politicization;
Whereas it is entirely inappropriate for a domestic law enforcement agency that
employs 2.3 percent of the manpower of the United States military to
receive a headquarters larger than the Pentagon;
Whereas building a new headquarters would condone, reinforce, and enable the
Washington Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's
nefarious behavior; and
Whereas there is credible evidence before Congress to support all of the
foregoing: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This resolution may be cited as the ``FBI Washington Field Office
House Arrest Act''.
SEC. 2. SENSE OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
No money should be appropriated for the General Services
Administration or the Federal Bureau of Investigation to either plan
to, or acquire property for, a new, consolidated headquarters outside
the District of Columbia.

resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the importance of stepped-up basis under section 1014 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 in preserving family-owned farms and
small businesses.
Whereas the stepped-up basis under section 1014 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 allows recipients of inherited assets such as land, equipment, or
buildings to adjust the cost basis of the asset to reflect its fair
market value;
Whereas 98 percent of farms are family owned according to the Department of
Agriculture, and 19 percent of all businesses are family owned according
to the Small Business Administration;
Whereas a study conducted by the Economic Research Service of the Department of
Agriculture determined that 66 percent of all midsized farms would see
an increased tax liability if the stepped-up basis were eliminated;
Whereas the stepped-up basis is a crucial component of many family farms and
small business succession plans; and
Whereas the elimination of the stepped-up basis would threaten the ability of
farmers, ranchers, agribusinesses, and small business owners to make
generational transfers of their operations: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the preservation of the stepped-up basis;
(2) opposes any efforts to impose new taxes on family farms
or small businesses; and
(3) recognizes the importance of generational transfers of
farm and family-owned business operations.

H. RES. 238
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the
importance of Proof-of-Work mining, used for certain cryptocurrencies
such as Bitcoin, to the United States ability to achieve its energy
goals and grow its economy.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 21, 2023
Mr. Sessions submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committees
on Foreign Affairs, Financial Services, and Science, Space, and
Technology, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker,
in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the
jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the
importance of Proof-of-Work mining, used for certain cryptocurrencies
such as Bitcoin, to the United States ability to achieve its energy
goals and grow its economy.
Whereas Proof-of-Work (PoW) mining requires the use of high-powered computing to
guess at a random, encrypted number to win the right to make the next
block in a blockchain and thereby earn Bitcoin;
Whereas this process sets the rules for miners and verifies the legitimacy of
every transaction using the Blockchain;
Whereas PoW mining is an essential process that allows for a blockchain network
to remain trusted, open, and decentralized;
Whereas it ensures that any individual can participate equally in the process if
they are willing to allocate the resources;
Whereas PoW mining does require energy consumption for this validation process,
many of the concerns are unwarranted, because PoW mining's energy usage
is transparent and verifiable;
Whereas PoW mining uses .14 percent of the global energy supply, which is less
than the amount of electricity lost in transmission and distribution
each year;
Whereas PoW mining seeks out low-cost energy and can utilize excess supply
during off-peak periods, which improves the overall economic viability
of renewable energy projects;
Whereas PoW mining also contributes to grid stability through demand response,
whereby miners can quickly curtail load to maintain equilibrium between
supply and demand on the electrical grid;
Whereas PoW mining economics are notably responsive to electricity prices, and
miners can curtail operations when electricity supply is low or prices
are high, providing more energy to households and the grid during times
of heavy demand;
Whereas, during the summer of 2022, the State of Texas experienced a record
heatwave straining the electrical grid;
Whereas in response to a conservation alert from the Electric Reliability
Council of Texas (ERCOT), the State electrical grid manager, Bitcoin
miners collectively reduced usage by over 1,000 MW;
Whereas, during the winter of 2022, the State of Texas experienced record cold
temperatures straining the electrical grid;
Whereas in response to a conservation alert from ERCOT, the State electrical
grid manager, Bitcoin miners collectively reduced usage by up to 1,475
MW which is enough power to heat 1,470,000 small homes;
Whereas no other industry that uses similar levels of energy, including data
centers, cloud service providers, and manufacturing facilities, has the
capacity to reduce energy usage instantaneously without adverse effects;
and
Whereas PoW mining can reduce methane emissions by using stranded or wasted
methane as a fuel source, thus reducing the amount of methane that
enters the atmosphere: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) energy development should be a key pillar to the growth
of the United States economy, infrastructure, and national
security, and Proof-of-Work mining can help develop
advancements in all of these sectors;
(2) digital asset Proof-of-Work mining can help facilitate
energy development by collaborating with the energy sector,
yielding an explosion of innovation that will improve United
States energy independence;
(3) digital asset Proof-of-Work mining is an important part
of the United States ability to achieve energy independence and
continued national security;
(4) China has chosen to push Proof-of-Work miners out of
the country, and instead adopted a Central Bank Digital
Currency;
(5) the Federal Reserve cannot issue a Central Bank Digital
Currency without congressional authority;
(6) the United States should invest in the digital asset
industry and promote sustainable job growth and innovative
development; and
(7) the industry will bring high-paying jobs and technology
training to areas where it is most needed.

1st Session
H. RES. 239
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that offshore wind
projects along the Atlantic coast require more comprehensive
investigations examining the impact to the environment, relevant
maritime industries, and national defense before being leased or
constructed.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 21, 2023
Mr. Van Drew (for himself, Mr. Harris, Mr. Smith of New Jersey, Mr.
Perry, and Mr. D'Esposito) submitted the following resolution; which
was referred to the Committee on Natural Resources
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that offshore wind
projects along the Atlantic coast require more comprehensive
investigations examining the impact to the environment, relevant
maritime industries, and national defense before being leased or
constructed.
Whereas the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), under the direction of the
Department of the Interior, has as of March 2023 leased 1,753,818 acres
of offshore land for wind development and is planning on leasing another
1,700,000 acres off the Central Atlantic coast and additional leases off
the Northern Atlantic coast and the Gulf of Maine;
Whereas offshore wind turbines are over 900 feet tall, 600 feet higher than
standard onshore wind turbines;
Whereas the interarray and offshore export connection cables between wind farms
and onshore energy grids will require the dredging of hundreds of miles
of ocean floor;
Whereas lease areas sit along known migration routes and foraging areas of North
Atlantic right whales, humpback whales, and economically important
commercial and recreational fish species;
Whereas disturbances to right whale foraging areas could have population-level
effects on the already endangered and stressed species;
Whereas, between December 2022 and March 2023, 23 dead whales have washed ashore
on the East Coast, including on the shores of Lido Beach on Long Island,
New York, the North Brigantine Natural Area in Brigantine, New Jersey,
and the shores of Virginia Beach, Virginia;
Whereas the BOEM and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
have an unclear process for determining all contributing causes of death
of whales through necropsies;
Whereas NOAA lacks a mechanism to oversee and enforce the parameters of its
incidental harassment authorizations of marine mammals issued to
offshore wind companies;
Whereas areas leased as of March 2023 for offshore wind turbines sit along
established fishing grounds that generate 40 percent of the United
States fisheries $4,800,000,000 annual economic output, and provides
food for millions of Americans;
Whereas commercial vessel traffic in the Atlantic region, particularly in Coast
Guard Districts 1, 5, and 7, is vital to the United States economy in
that it serves major East Coast ports by the safe, reliable, and energy-
efficient transportation of dry and liquid cargos;
Whereas the rerouting of such traffic to accommodate wind lease sites is
inefficient and poses a potential risk to the safety of vessel traffic
and marine species;
Whereas BOEM, in a draft environmental impact statement (EIS) for the Ocean Wind
1 lease sale stated that the presence of offshore wind turbine
structures and related radar interference could result in delays within
or approaching ports, increase navigational complexity, and create
detours to offshore travel or port approaches;
Whereas requests from maritime stakeholders to increase the width of transit
lanes to a minimum of 2 nautical miles to ensure safer transit through
wind farms have been disregarded;
Whereas a proposed alternative turbine layout with wider transit lanes was
rejected in a record of decision (ROD) by the BOEM for the Vineyard Wind
1 offshore wind project in part due to potential delays to the project
that would be inconsistent with timelines set in President Biden's
Executive Order 14008;
Whereas such ROD stated that ``the combination of the technical complexities and
project delay would preclude [Vineyard Wind 1's] ability to meet the
current contractual obligations with Massachusetts distribution
companies'';
Whereas the contractual obligation refers to a power purchase agreement between
Vineyard Wind 1 and the State of Massachusetts, which was signed 2 years
prior to the ROD, and required 800 megawatts of energy output;
Whereas the required energy output prevents serious consideration of alternative
requests for wind farm layout and number of turbines installed;
Whereas BOEM, in a draft EIS for the Ocean Wind 1 lease sale off the coast of
New Jersey, determined that the proposed wind turbine structures would
increase the risk of vessel collisions, allisions, and spills which
could result in personal injury or loss of life;
Whereas the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine determined
that wind turbine generator interference on marine vessel radar will
lead to unforeseen complications and degraded performance, causing loss
of radar contact that is particularly consequential when conducting
search and rescue operations in and adjacent to offshore wind farms;
Whereas offshore wind farms will interfere with coastal high frequency radar
systems used for United States Coast Guard (USCG) search and rescue
operations;
Whereas existing port access route studies (PARS) related to offshore wind do
not properly examine potential radar interference and the impact on
navigation within and around wind farms;
Whereas the USCG in its Areas Offshore of Massachusetts and Rhode Island PARS
determined that the potential for offshore wind turbine interference
with marine radar is site specific and depends on factors including
turbine size, array layouts, number of turbines, construction materials,
and vessel types;
Whereas the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine determined
that wind turbine generator interference decreases the effectiveness of
marine vessel radar mounted on all vessel classes and that the sizes of
anticipated offshore wind farms across the United States Outer
Continental Shelf at the scale of anticipated deployment will exacerbate
this situation;
Whereas the potential safety and maritime supply chain impacts of navigational
and radar interference related to proposed offshore wind leases has not
been duly evaluated or mitigated;
Whereas the Department of Defense's Offshore Wind Mission Compatibility
Assessment ruled much of the offshore east coast a ``wind exclusion
zone'', for defense and defense training reasons;
Whereas, according to the Department of Defense, ARSR-4 primary long-range air
surveillance radars would be ``very susceptible'' to interference from
wind turbines, and that ``target tracking abilities decrease as turbine
number, size, and density increases'';
Whereas the Department of Defense acknowledged in May 2019 that noise generated
by offshore wind turbines disturbs acoustically sensitive environments
and may interfere with offensive- and defensive-based military sensors,
and that currently there are no Department of Defense-supported
unclassified studies that have been conducted regarding this topic; and
Whereas the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Wallops Flight
Facility stated in 2022 that offshore wind farms built within wind
exclusion zones could potentially be flight obstructions, be impacted by
falling debris from launches, and would impact the facility's ability to
accept and expand new technologies: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the Atlantic coast offshore wind leases represent a
transformative industrialization of vital environmental and
maritime resources of the United States;
(2) the potential impacts of this industrialization have
not been duly evaluated or mitigated by the responsible Federal
agencies;
(3) Congress should--
(A) conduct investigations to determine the true
impacts of offshore wind development; and
(B) use the findings of such investigations to
develop legislation to mitigate potential negative
environmental or economic impacts of offshore wind
development; and
(4) leasing and construction of offshore wind farms along
the Atlantic coast should be put under immediate moratorium
until these investigations and findings are presented to
Congress and the public.

H. RES. 24
Honoring the 2022 World Series Champions--the Houston Astros--and the
team's dedicated, iconic manager, Dusty Baker, as well as all of the
team's outstanding players who have contributed to making history and
proving that anything is possible.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 11, 2023
Ms. Jackson Lee submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Honoring the 2022 World Series Champions--the Houston Astros--and the
team's dedicated, iconic manager, Dusty Baker, as well as all of the
team's outstanding players who have contributed to making history and
proving that anything is possible.
Whereas the Houston Astros are a preeminent professional baseball team with a
rich history that was founded in 1962 as the ``Houston Colt .45s''
before becoming the Astros in 1965 when they moved to their new home in
the first-ever domed sports stadium, the Astrodome;
Whereas the Astros became a symbol for perseverance within the Houston community
in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey when they elevated their dedication
to service and charitable contributions that helped Houstonians recover
and rebuild;
Whereas the Houston Astros are owned by Jim Crain, who has the utmost pride in
the City of Houston and appreciation for the Houston Astros' loyal fans
who have been pivotal to the success of the team and essential to
achieving their 2022 World Series win;
Whereas the general manager of the Houston Astros is James Click, who helped
assemble a world-class organization and enabled it to achieve
extraordinary success through development of their players and built a
roster that is steeped in talent;
Whereas the Houston Astros are led by Dusty Baker, one of the greatest baseball
minds of our era, who has become one of the most successful managers in
baseball history;
Whereas at 73 years old, Baker has been dedicated to Major League Baseball
(hereinafter referred to as ``MLB'') for nearly 50 years, 19 years as a
player and 30 years as a manager;
Whereas Baker played with the Atlanta Braves, Los Angeles Dodgers, San Francisco
Giants, Oakland Athletics, and Kansas City Royals;
Whereas Baker is the only manager in MLB history to lead five different teams
and to win division titles with five different clubs: the San Francisco
Giants, Chicago Cubs, Cincinnati Reds, Washington Nationals, and Houston
Astros;
Whereas Dusty Baker is the first African-American manager to win 2,000 career
games, is one of only two individuals in MLB history to produce 1,800
hits as a player and 2,000 wins as a manager, and is one of the most
successful people in baseball history;
Whereas Baker finally clinched the one accolade that eluded him, winning the
World Series as a Manager, by leading the Houston Astros to a World
Series win in 2022;
Whereas Baker embodies the values of sportsmanship, dedication, resilience, and
wise leadership, and he serves as an example for all Americans that
anything is possible with fortitude and perseverance;
Whereas Jeremy Pena had a breakout season, becoming the first-ever rookie
shortstop, and only the third shortstop in MLB history, to win a Gold
Glove Award;
Whereas Pena rose from being a reserve player on the Astros' taxi squad who had
only played 182 minor league games to becoming the first rookie position
player in history to win a World Series MVP award and the youngest MVP
player of any World Series;
Whereas Pena helped the Astros win the 2022 World Series with stellar play that
is an inspiration to aspiring young players everywhere, and his personal
story is proof that anything is possible with hard work, patience,
determination, and focus that culminated in his World Series performance
that was truly outstanding;
Whereas baseball was created in the United States, is a quintessentially
American sport, compels the devotion of hundreds of millions of fans
nationwide and beyond, and reaches its apex each year in the World
Series, which is one of the greatest displays of teamwork, strategy,
individual excellence, and collective achievement;
Whereas the Houston Astros are a formidable, resilient team that has become a
force to be reckoned with, bringing tremendous pride to the City of
Houston and the Nation;
Whereas we are grateful for the Houston Astros' commitment to excellence and
success; and
Whereas we are proud of their accomplishments and are grateful for their
leadership both on and off the field and their service to the community:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) honors the 2022 World Series Champion Houston Astros as
the world champions of baseball;
(2) encourages the American people to ``Level Up!'' and
persist in the face of adversity just as the 2022 World Series
Champion Houston Astros have proven that, with determination
and persistence, it is possible to overcome any challenge;
(3) recognizes that the Houston Astros through their
resilient play as a team, the perseverance of Dusty Baker, and
the commitment of Jeremy Pena have shown the Nation that, with
true grit, fortitude, and teamwork, we can hurdle daunting odds
in the true spirit of what it means to be American; and
(4) congratulates the 2022 World Series Champion Houston
Astros on their historic climb to the top of the pantheon of
baseball achievement, during which they've become a true
inspiration for the Nation.

Recognizing the significant human rights activism and baseball stardom
legacy of Roberto Clemente.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 22, 2023
Mr. Espaillat (for himself, Mr. Carson, Ms. Barragan, Mrs. Gonzalez-
Colon, and Mr. Davis of Illinois) submitted the following resolution;
which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the significant human rights activism and baseball stardom
legacy of Roberto Clemente.
Whereas Roberto Clemente Walker was born on August 18, 1934, to Don Melchor
Clemente and Luisa Walker in Barrio San Anton, Carolina, Puerto Rico, as
the youngest of 7 children;
Whereas his mother, Luisa, was a laundress and his father, Don Melchor, was a
sugarcane plantation worker;
Whereas Clemente's professional idol was Monte Irvin, a pioneering Black left
fielder and first baseman who played winter ball in Puerto Rico, playing
for the San Juan Senators;
Whereas Clemente excelled in athletics as a youngster, and at the age of 17 was
playing for the Santurce Cangrejeros ``Crabbers'' of the Puerto Rican
Baseball League;
Whereas, in 1952, at the ripe age of 18, the Dodgers signed Clemente to their
Triple-A minor league team, the Montreal Royals, in Montreal for a
season;
Whereas, in 1954, the Pittsburgh Pirates selected Clemente in the first round of
the Major League Baseball Rule 5 draft;
Whereas Pirates center fielder Earl Smith wore jersey number 21 until he parted
ways with the team in April 1955, and Clemente wore number 13 until
then;
Whereas, in 1955, Clemente made his Major League debut as he went on to play for
the Pittsburgh Pirates starting as a right fielder;
Whereas when the team traveled to Richmond, Virginia, for games or Florida for
spring training, Clemente encountered Jim Crow laws for the first time
when the Black players had to stay at a separate inferior hotel and were
refused the option to dine with their White counterparts;
Whereas it is known that during one of his first games, Clemente protested
angrily when fans yelled racial insults at one of his teammates;
Whereas Clemente was treated like a foreigner, disparaged for his Spanish
language, and discriminated against for his skin color;
Whereas it is reported that many people mocked Clemente's heavy Latin accent,
quoting him with phonetic spelling rather than merely reporting what he
said;
Whereas Clemente insisted on being called ``Roberto'' in an effort to combat
oppression and forced American assimilation by reporters and other
members of the public who repeatedly referred to him as ``Bob'';
Whereas Clemente was known for being a proud Afro-Latino and protested the
discrimination that Latin and Black ball players encountered;
Whereas Clemente was known for defending the rights of Black and Brown people,
both on the field and in the streets;
Whereas, after the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., in 1968, Clemente
and his teammates refused to play until after the funerals and even
wrote a public statement showing their respect for Dr. King;
Whereas Clemente became a union leader in the incipient Major League Baseball
Players Association and defended players' rights to demand better
working conditions and benefits;
Whereas in every city where the Pirates played, Clemente visited sick children
in hospitals;
Whereas Clemente put his heart and soul into training clinics, providing
baseball lessons and fun for boys and girls in Pittsburgh, his home
island of Puerto Rico, and throughout Latin America;
Whereas, while participating in one such clinic in Nicaragua, he developed a
particularly close bond with the youth in that Central American country;
Whereas, in 1958, Clemente enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve
after the 1958 season and spent six months on active duty at Parris
Island, South Carolina, and Camp LeJeune, North Carolina;
Whereas Clemente served until 1964 and was inducted into the Marine Corps Sports
Hall of Fame in 2003;
Whereas, in 1960, Clemente hit his stride, batting .314 with 16 home runs and 94
RBIs to earn his first All-Star berth and help the Pirates upset the
Yankees in the World Series;
Whereas, the following year, Clemente led the National League with a .351
average, slugged 23 homers, and won his first of 12 consecutive Gold
Glove Awards for defensive excellence;
Whereas Clemente was the first pan-Caribbean and first Latin-American superstar
in Major League Baseball;
Whereas, in 1966, which many deem as his finest season, Clemente was voted the
National League MVP with a career-best 29 homers and 119 RBIs;
Whereas, on September 1, 1971, Clemente batted third in a lineup of players
that, for the first time in history, consisted entirely of Black,
Indigenous, or other People of Color (BIPOC) players;
Whereas Clemente was selected to be the 1971 World Series MVP, and during this
series he batted .414 with two home runs to help Pittsburgh defeat the
favored Baltimore Orioles;
Whereas in giving an interview after winning the 1971 World Series, Clemente
became the first person to speak Spanish on a nationally televised
American broadcast;
Whereas, throughout the 1960s, Clemente wore his iconic ``21'' jersey number and
dominated the game of baseball, forever inscribing the number 21 into
baseball history;
Whereas for Carribenos, Pittsburgh residents, baseball fans, and athletes,
especially those from BIPOC communities, the number ``21'' on the back
of a T-shirt symbolizes the imprint Roberto Clemente left on and off the
field;
Whereas Clemente was the 11th Major League player to record 3,000 hits;
Whereas, by the end of his career, Clemente had joined the exclusive 3,000-hit
club, was selected to 15 All-Star teams, and won 12 Gold Gloves, 2 World
Series, and a National League MVP award;
Whereas in Clemente's 18 seasons with Pittsburgh he won 4 batting titles, hit
240 home runs, and posted a lifetime .317 batting average;
Whereas, in late 1972, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake ravaged Managua, Nicaragua,
and killed 5,000 people;
Whereas, in his philanthropic spirit, Clemente sent shipments of humanitarian
aid to the country;
Whereas after learning that 3 previous shipments had been diverted by corrupt
Somoza Government officials, Clemente decided to accompany one of the
aid shipments;
Whereas the four-engine DC-7 plane Clemente chartered for a flight on New Year's
Eve crashed in the Atlantic Ocean immediately after takeoff from the
coast of Isla Verde, Puerto Rico;
Whereas, on December 31, 1972, Clemente died in the plane crash at the age of 38
years young;
Whereas, since 1973, Major League Baseball gives out the Roberto Clemente Award
to one player in the league who ``best exemplifies the game of baseball,
sportsmanship, community involvement and the individual's contribution
to his team'';
Whereas, in 2002, Major League Baseball declared the first annual Roberto
Clemente Day;
Whereas, in 2021, Major League Baseball announced September 15 would be the
permanent date of Roberto Clemente Day to coincide with the beginning of
Hispanic Heritage month;
Whereas, on Roberto Clemente Day 2022, the Tampa Bay Rays put out a lineup of
all Latin American players for the first time in history;
Whereas Clemente's tragic death left behind his wife, Vera, and three young
sons, Roberto, Jr., Luis Roberto, and Roberto Enrique; and
Whereas Clemente was a legend in life and death, a baseball star, a humanitarian
activist, and a symbol of Latin American pride: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes that Roberto Clemente was the first Latino
player to accomplish many feats in Major League Baseball;
(2) recognizes that Roberto Clemente was the first Puerto
Rican, and first person of Latino heritage, to win a World
Series as a starter, be named league MVP, be named World Series
MVP, and be elected to the Hall of Fame;
(3) recognizes that 2 weeks after his death, Clemente was
posthumously elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in
1973, being the first National League baseball player to
receive the mandatory 5-year waiting period waiver;
(4) urges Major League Baseball to permanently retire the
number 21 in honor of the life and legacy of Roberto Clemente;
and
(5) urges Major League Baseball to expand Roberto Clemente
Day so that, in all ballparks on that one day, all players,
coaches, and managers on both teams, and the umpires, wear
Clemente's uniform number, 21.

_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the President
and the Secretary of State should ensure that the Government of Canada
does not permanently store nuclear waste in the Great Lakes Basin.
Whereas the water resources of the Great Lakes Basin are precious public natural
resources shared by the Great Lakes States and the Provinces of Canada;
Whereas, since 1909, the United States and Canada have worked to maintain and
improve the water quality of the Great Lakes through water quality
agreements;
Whereas more than 40,000,000 individuals in both Canada and the United States
depend on the fresh water from the Great Lakes for drinking water;
Whereas the Government of Canada is proposing to build a permanent deep
geological repository for high-level nuclear waste in the Great Lakes
Basin;
Whereas the Nuclear Waste Management Organization of Canada is examining
building a permanent deep geological repository for nuclear waste in the
Great Lakes Basin, less than 40 miles from Lake Huron in South Bruce,
Ontario, Canada;
Whereas nuclear waste is highly toxic and can take tens of thousands of years to
decompose to safe levels;
Whereas a spill of nuclear waste into the Great Lakes, including during transit
to a permanent deep geological repository for nuclear waste, could have
lasting and severely adverse environmental, health, and economic impacts
on the Great Lakes and the individuals who depend on the Great Lakes for
their livelihoods;
Whereas more than 232 local, county, State, and Tribal governments have passed
resolutions in opposition to the formerly proposed nuclear waste
repository of Ontario Power Generation;
Whereas Tribes and First Nations' citizens have a strong spiritual and cultural
connection to the Great Lakes;
Whereas the Saugeen Ojibway Nation have exercised their Aboriginal and Treaty
Rights and voted against Ontario Power Generation building a permanent
nuclear waste repository in Kincardine, Ontario;
Whereas the protection of the Great Lakes is fundamental to treaty rights; and
Whereas, during the 1980s, when the Department of Energy was studying potential
sites for a permanent nuclear waste repository in the United States in
accordance with the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 (42 U.S.C. 10101 et
seq.), the Government of Canada expressed concern with locating a
permanent nuclear waste repository within shared water basins of the 2
countries: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the Government of Canada should not allow a permanent
nuclear waste repository to be built within the Great Lakes
Basin;
(2) the President and the Secretary of State should take
appropriate action to work with the Government of Canada to
prevent a permanent nuclear waste repository from being built
within the Great Lakes Basin; and
(3) the President and the Secretary of State should work
together with their counterparts in the Government of Canada on
a solution for the long-term storage of nuclear waste that--
(A) is safe and responsible; and
(B) does not pose a threat to the Great Lakes.

H. RES. 244
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that mandates
imposed on manufacturers requiring inclusion of unproven and unreliable
technology in firearms is costly and punitive, and the prohibition of
firearms without such features is an infringement on the rights of
citizens under the Second Amendment.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 22, 2023
Mr. LaMalfa (for himself, Mr. Van Drew, and Mr. Lamborn) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the
Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that mandates
imposed on manufacturers requiring inclusion of unproven and unreliable
technology in firearms is costly and punitive, and the prohibition of
firearms without such features is an infringement on the rights of
citizens under the Second Amendment.
Whereas California has implemented and amended a law requiring firearms
manufacturers to micro laser engrave a gun's make, model, and serial
number on an internal part of each semiautomatic pistol so that, in
theory, the information is imprinted on the cartridge casing when the
firearm is fired;
Whereas other States and the District of Columbia are considering similar
mandates;
Whereas, based on the current state of this nascent technology, it is impossible
to microstamp a firearm cartridge and have the required identifying
information legibly and reliably imprinted on the cartridge casing when
fired;
Whereas the scientific literature concludes there is no existing microstamping
technology that will reliably, consistently, and legibly imprint the
required identifying information from the tip of the firing pin of a
semiautomatic pistol onto the cartridge casing it fires;
Whereas one study found that the impressions were not decipherable nearly 50
percent of the time;
Whereas the holder of the patent for the technology was a coauthor of peer-
reviewed study that concluded, ``legitimate questions exist related to
both the technical aspects, production costs, and database management
associated with microstamping that should be addressed before wide scale
implementation is legislatively mandated'';
Whereas a subsequent study noted the use of expensive scanning electron
microscope (SEM) technology still failed to solve the problems
associated with microstamping;
Whereas the microstamping process is costly and time-consuming, and threatens
the employment of thousands in the firearms industry;
Whereas the passage of legislation requiring its use would raise the cost of
legal firearms by hundreds of dollars per gun for both law-abiding
citizens seeking to exercise their Second Amendment right and for United
States law enforcement personnel; and
Whereas manufacturers have publicly stated it is impossible for any manufacturer
to comply with the provisions of the California law which are invalid,
that cannot be enforced, and that will not contribute to improving
public safety: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) mandates imposed on manufacturers requiring inclusion
of unproven and unreliable microstamping technology in firearms
is costly and punitive; and
(2) the prohibition of firearms without such features is an
infringement on the rights of citizens under the Second
Amendment.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 245
Recognizing and congratulating the city of Manassas, Virginia, on the
150th anniversary of its founding.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 22, 2023
Ms. Wexton submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing and congratulating the city of Manassas, Virginia, on the
150th anniversary of its founding.
Whereas the residents of the city of Manassas will celebrate the city's historic
150th anniversary as an active and involved community on April 1, 2023,
at Dean Park;
Whereas, originally called Manassas Junction, the town of Manassas was
incorporated in 1873 by the Virginia General Assembly;
Whereas the town grew out of being located at the junction of the Orange,
Alexandria, and the Manassas Gap railroad lines;
Whereas the fortunes of Manassas and its establishment as a town are linked to
the railroad;
Whereas, when the Orange and Alexandria Railroad reached what was then called
Tudor Hall in 1851 and connected to the Manassas Gap Railroad, the area
became known as Manassas Junction, offering farmers a chance to move
their grain and establishing a strategic location for growth after the
Civil War;
Whereas the first law enforcement in the then town of Manassas began in 1873
with Town Sargent Jacob W. Hornbaker;
Whereas the selection of Manassas as the county seat and construction of the
county courthouse in 1894 spurred a building and population boom and led
to the growth of the town;
Whereas seven of the city's historic treasures are listed on the National
Register of Historic Places, including--
(1) Liberia, the 1825 home and grounds where nearly 90 enslaved people
toiled on a plantation, where both Confederate and Union forces set up
headquarters during the Civil War, and where President Abraham Lincoln
visited;
(2) Mayfield Earthwork Fort, built by Confederate forces and the
enslaved in 1861 to defend against Union advances;
(3) Cannon Branch Earthwork Fort, built in 1863 to defend rail lines
supplying Union troops;
(4) Annaburg, the 1894 summer home of brewer Robert Portner, believed
to be the first house in the country to have air conditioning after Portner
invented and installed his own cooling machine;
(5) the iconic 1914 Manassas Water Tower, built as the town established
its own water utility;
(6) the nationally recognized Manassas Industrial School for Colored
Youth, founded in 1893 by former slave Jennie Dean to provide both academic
and vocational training for African-American youth when segregated schools
limited their opportunities; and
(7) the Manassas Local Historic District, which includes 300
architecturally and historically significant structures in the downtown and
surrounding neighborhoods;
Whereas the first all-volunteer fire company, the Manassas Volunteer Fire
Company, was founded in 1892 to make the community safer, and in 1914
the first fire station was built and then relocated to its current
location at 9322 Center Street;
Whereas, in 1895, telephone service was established for the blossoming town, and
the first electricity was generated in 1913 and run by the municipality;
Whereas, in 1905, a horrendous fire swept through the town and burned about 30
buildings, and by town ordinance, these buildings were rebuilt in brick
and fire-resistant materials;
Whereas the first Greater Manassas Christmas Parade was held in 1945 and is the
largest Christmas parade in the area;
Whereas the first airport in Manassas was established in 1930, and the current
location of the Manassas Regional Airport opened in 1964 and is
currently the busiest General Aviation Airport in the Commonwealth with
over 400 based aircraft and generates over $275,000,000 in economic
benefit to the surrounding region;
Whereas the visionary town council passed an ambitious $5,000,000 bond
referendum to purchase land on Broad Run to construct a dam that would
create the Lake Manassas reservoir, providing a dedicated water supply
to the city and surrounding Prince William County;
Whereas, in 1964, using funds from donations by the community, the Prince
William Medical Center (now the University of Virginia Prince William
Medical Center) was established to aid in the health care of Manassas
area residents;
Whereas, as early as 1897, town father George Carr Round recognized the strength
of Manassas diverse population and its newcomers, writing of the town
``It is especially cosmopolitan.'';
Whereas today the city is the fifth most diverse locality in Virginia, with a
60.4 percent non-White population, a 26.5 percent foreign-born
population, and where Manassas City Public Schools serve students whose
families speak more than 27 different languages in the home;
Whereas IBM moved into the town of Manassas in 1968, creating jobs and housing,
such as Georgetown South;
Whereas the city of Manassas is a regional employment center and has a robust
history of major corporate investment and job creation beginning in the
1970s with IBM and most recently exemplified by Micron Technologies
Inc., making the largest capital investment in Virginia history;
Whereas the Manassas Museum opened in its first location in 1974, documenting
the city's history and culture and providing free cultural exhibits to
residents and visitors alike;
Whereas the town of Manassas became an independent city in 1975, one of only 41
independent cities in the United States with a population of at least
12,800 at the time;
Whereas the Virginia Railway Express began operations in Manassas on June 22,
1992, providing commuter rail service to the city generating access for
all of northern Virginia and the District of Columbia, as well as a stop
on Amtrak's Cardinal, Crescent, and Northeast Regional trains;
Whereas the Loy E. Harris Pavilion was completed as a ``town square''-like
facility for gatherings and concerts in 2000, and has grown to become
the event center for the area, hosting concerts, events, and even
weddings in the warmer months and ice skating in the winter months,
making Manassas a destination for events and festivals;
Whereas the city of Manassas logo and tagline of ``Historic Heart. Modern
Beat.'' was adopted in 2015 not only by the city, but by the community
as well;
Whereas the Manassas City Police Department is one of the highest nationally
accredited departments in the country, being accredited as a Gold
Standard with Excellence agency by the Commission on Accreditation for
Law Enforcement; and
Whereas the city of Manassas has grown from a city of 12,800 in 1975 to a 10-
square mile city of more than 43,000 in 2023, close to the urban
amenities of the District of Columbia but with a small-town feel: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes and congratulates the city of Manassas,
Virginia, on the 150th anniversary of its founding;
(2) celebrates the historical significance of Manassas and
the contributions of the city to the Commonwealth of Virginia
and the Nation; and
(3) honors the individuals and communities that have shaped
Manassas history, growth, and development over the past 150
years.

_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the commencement of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month of
fasting and spiritual renewal, and commending Muslims in the United
States and throughout the world for their faith.
Whereas it is estimated that there are approximately 1,900,000,000 Muslims
worldwide and 4,500,000 Muslims in the United States;
Whereas Ramadan is the holy month of fasting and spiritual renewal for Muslims
worldwide, and is the 9th month of the Muslim calendar year;
Whereas the observance of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan commences at dusk on
March 22, 2023, and continues for one lunar month;
Whereas one of the purposes of fasting during the holy month of Ramadan is for
Muslims to gain a better understanding of the plight faced by those who
are less fortunate;
Whereas American Muslims contribute greatly to charitable organizations that
help people from all faiths in the United States and around the world by
providing food for the hungry, medical assistance, family services,
scholastic supplies, before and after school programs, refugee
resettlement, and relief efforts following natural disasters;
Whereas American Muslims have contributed greatly to the United States, serving
as medical professionals, teachers, first responders, journalists,
writers, artists, athletes, small business owners, professors,
activists, community leaders, and elected public officials across
government representing both major political parties;
Whereas the American Muslim community is among the most racially diverse faith
groups in the United States;
Whereas Thomas Jefferson was the first President to host an iftar, the meal
breaking fast during Ramadan, at the White House in 1805, and every
President since 1996 has hosted an iftar for members of the community
during their Presidencies;
Whereas the Department of State and United States Agency for International
Development have hosted iftars through the years for staff and members
of the diplomatic community;
Whereas the Department of Agriculture has hosted iftar dinners since 2008 to
recognize and welcome interfaith dialogue and collaboration with
individuals and organizations whose core values often overlap
significantly with the mission of the Department, including disaster
recovery, reducing food waste, ensuring access to nutritious food, and
fostering safe, prosperous, and thriving communities;
Whereas the Pentagon has held iftar dinners to celebrate Ramadan starting in
1999, recognizing American Muslims serving in all branches of the United
States military; and
Whereas over 5,500 Muslims serve on active duty, and over 2,300 Muslims serve as
selected reserve personnel in the United States Armed Forces: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That--
(1) in order to demonstrate solidarity with and support for
members of the community of Islam in the United States and
throughout the world, the House of Representatives recognizes
the Islamic faith as one of the great religions of the world;
and
(2) in observance of and out of respect for the
commencement of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month of fasting and
spiritual renewal, the House of Representatives acknowledges
the onset of Ramadan and expresses its deepest respect to
Muslims in the United States and throughout the world on this
significant occasion.

H. RES. 247
Expressing support for the designation of March 23, 2023, as ``Pakistan
Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 23, 2023
Mr. Bowman submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of March 23, 2023, as ``Pakistan
Day''.
Whereas it is proper and desirable for the United States to recognize and pay
tribute to those who foster ethnic pride and enhance the profile of
cultural diversity which strengthens the fabric of the communities of
the United States;
Whereas ``Pakistan Day'' is a national holiday in Pakistan commemorating the
Lahore Resolution passed on March 23, 1940, and the adoption of the
first Constitution of Pakistan during the transition of the Dominion of
Pakistan to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan on March 23, 1956, making
it the world's first Islamic republic;
Whereas, each year, the citizens of Pakistan come together on March 23, to
celebrate this special day with a full military and civilian parade in
the capital, Islamabad;
Whereas ``Pakistan Day'' provides an excellent means by which all residents of
the United States can learn more about the rich Pakistani heritage,
while fostering an appreciation for this ancient culture among future
generations;
Whereas the American Pakistani Advocacy Group plays an important role in
advocating for the Pakistani-American community in the United States;
Whereas the community of people who came to the United States from Pakistan, or
who have ancestral ties to Pakistan, share their cherished culture and
traditions with residents of the United States of all backgrounds; and
Whereas Pakistani-Americans excel in a wide range of professions such as
education, medicine, science, technology, business, and industry, and
have made significant contributions to the cultural and economic
vitality of the United States: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) offers its best wishes to all members of the Pakistani-
American community as they hold appropriate ceremonies to
commemorate this historic milestone; and
(2) supports the designation of ``Pakistan Day'' to honor
and celebrate the important role played by the Pakistani-
American community in strengthening and inspiring the people of
the United States.

H. RES. 248
Recognizing the contributions of Clela Rorex, pioneering county clerk
who advanced civil rights for all couples seeking to be married in
1975.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 23, 2023
Mr. Neguse (for himself, Mr. Pocan, Mr. Crow, Ms. DeGette, Ms.
Pettersen, Ms. Caraveo, Ms. Kuster, Mr. David Scott of Georgia, Ms.
Bonamici, and Ms. Davids of Kansas) submitted the following resolution;
which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the contributions of Clela Rorex, pioneering county clerk
who advanced civil rights for all couples seeking to be married in
1975.
Whereas Clela Ann Rorex was born in Denver on July 23, 1943, to Ruby Rorex, a
dance and theater teacher, and Cecil Rorex, who served as Clerk of Routt
County, Colorado, for 30 years, where Clela grew up in Steamboat
Springs;
Whereas Clela earned her bachelor's degree from the University of Colorado
Boulder in 1973 and a master's degree in Public Administration from the
University of Colorado Denver in 1981;
Whereas Clela, at the age of 31, became Boulder County Clerk and Recorder in
January 1975;
Whereas, in 1975, when a same-sex couple requested a marriage license in Boulder
County, Clela consulted the assistant district attorney and learned that
Colorado State laws did not specifically prohibit granting a marriage
license to a same-sex couple;
Whereas, as a newly elected county clerk, Clela issued a marriage license to
Dave McCord and Dave Zamora, the first marriage license issued to a
same-sex couple in the United States;
Whereas Clela was quoted in 2016 as saying, ``After having been so deeply
involved in the women's rights movements, who was I to then deny a right
to anyone else? It wasn't my job to legislate morality.'';
Whereas, over the next month, Clela issued five more marriage licenses to same-
sex couples;
Whereas national news outlets circulated Clela's groundbreaking story, after
which she reported receiving a deluge of death threats and condemnation
in hundreds of letters and phone calls to the Boulder County Clerk's
office;
Whereas Clela issued marriage licenses to six same-sex couples in Boulder
County, Colorado, in April 1975, 40 years before the Supreme Court
legalized same-sex marriage nationwide in 2015;
Whereas, in 2014, a series of court rulings cleared the way for same-sex
marriages in Colorado;
Whereas, despite the threats and for decades, Clela continued her advocacy
efforts on behalf of the LGBTQ community including marching,
volunteering, and donating to LGBTQ efforts;
Whereas Clela was 78 years old when she died on June 19, 2022, in Longmont,
Colorado;
Whereas due to her advocacy for human rights, Boulder County, Colorado, declared
July 23, 2022, as ``Clela Rorex Day''; and
Whereas Clela should be recognized for her leadership as a national civil rights
leader, paving the way for countless individuals: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes--
(A) the contributions of Clela Rorex as a pioneer
for civil rights and same-sex marriage;
(B) the respect and bravery Clela had when issuing
the first same-sex marriage license in the United
States; and
(C) the courage Clela exhibited following the
threats she received when she issued marriage licenses
to same-sex couples; and
(2) expresses support for the designation of ``Clela Rorex
Day''.

1st Session
H. RES. 249
Expressing support for the designation of March 23, 2023, as ``Tuskegee
Airmen Commemoration Day'', and calling on each State, the District of
Columbia, and each territory to recognize the Tuskegee Airmen for their
heroism, valor, and exemplary service to the Nation.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 23, 2023
Ms. Norton (for herself, Ms. Blunt Rochester, Mrs. Beatty, Ms. Brown,
Mr. Carson, Mr. Davis of Illinois, Mr. Green of Texas, Ms. Jackson Lee,
Mr. Norcross, Ms. Porter, and Ms. Sewell) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and
Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of March 23, 2023, as ``Tuskegee
Airmen Commemoration Day'', and calling on each State, the District of
Columbia, and each territory to recognize the Tuskegee Airmen for their
heroism, valor, and exemplary service to the Nation.
Whereas the Tuskegee Airmen were Black pilots, aircrew, ground crew, and support
personnel who served in the Army Air Corps from 1941 to 1949;
Whereas 992 Tuskegee Airmen graduated flight training at the Tuskegee Army Air
Field in Tuskegee, Alabama, and 450 pilots deployed into combat
overseas;
Whereas the Tuskegee Airmen faced enormous adversity, from overcrowded
classrooms to bigoted officers and segregated facilities;
Whereas, during World War II, the Tuskegee Airmen flew over 15,000 combat
sorties and saw extensive action in the European and North African
theaters;
Whereas 84 Tuskegee Airmen were killed in action, 12 died during training and
noncombat missions, and 32 were taken prisoners of war after their
planes were shot down;
Whereas the Tuskegee Airmen earned 744 Air Medals, 14 Bronze Stars, and 8 Purple
Hearts;
Whereas, in 1945, Tuskegee Airmen in the 477th Bombardment Group staged a
nonviolent demonstration to desegregate the officer's club at Freeman
Field, Indiana, and their nonviolent direct action would inspire later
civil rights protesters;
Whereas the Tuskegee Airmen's battle against fascism abroad and racism at home
has been called a ``Double Victory'' and led President Truman to issue
Executive Order 9981, integrating the Armed Forces;
Whereas four Tuskegee Airmen, Benjamin O. Davis, Jr., Daniel ``Chappie'' James,
Lucius Theus, and Charles McGee, later became generals in the Air Force;
Whereas, in 2006, a bill to award the Congressional Gold Medal to the Tuskegee
Airmen ``in recognition of their unique military record, which inspired
revolutionary reform in the Armed Forces'' was signed into law (Public
Law 109-213);
Whereas, in 2008, the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site opened at Moton
Field in Tuskegee, Alabama, to commemorate and interpret the heroic
actions of the Tuskegee Airmen; and
Whereas very few Tuskegee Airmen are still alive today to share their story of
courage and bravery with younger Americans: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the
designation of ``Tuskegee Airmen Commemoration Day''.

H. RES. 25
Recognizing June 19, 2023, as this year's observance of the historical
significance of Juneteenth Independence Day.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 11, 2023
Ms. Jackson Lee submitted the following resolution; which was referred
to the Committee on Oversight and Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing June 19, 2023, as this year's observance of the historical
significance of Juneteenth Independence Day.
Whereas news of the end of slavery did not reach frontier areas of the United
States, and in particular the Southwestern States, for more than 2\1/2\
years after President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, which was
issued on January 1, 1863, and months after the conclusion of the Civil
War;
Whereas, on June 19, 1865, Union soldiers led by Major General Gordon Granger
arrived in Galveston, Texas, with news that the Civil War had ended and
that the enslaved were free;
Whereas African Americans who had been slaves in the Southwest celebrated June
19th, commonly known as ``Juneteenth Independence Day'', as the
anniversary of their emancipation;
Whereas African Americans from the Southwest continue the tradition of
celebrating Juneteenth Independence Day as inspiration and encouragement
for future generations;
Whereas for more than 150 years, Juneteenth Independence Day celebrations have
been held to honor African-American freedom while encouraging self-
development and respect for all cultures;
Whereas, on June 18, 2020, H.R. 7232, the Juneteenth National Independence Day
Act was introduced and reintroduced as H.R. 1320, on February 25, 2021,
in the House of Representatives, marking the first time in Congress a
bill had been introduced to declare Juneteenth a Federal holiday;
Whereas, on June 17, 2021, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr., signed into law the
bill that established Juneteenth as a Federal holiday, one day before
the first anniversary of the introduction of H.R. 7232, making it the
most recent addition to the list of Federal holidays; and
Whereas the faith and strength of character demonstrated by former slaves
remains an example for all people of the United States, regardless of
background, religion, or race: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That--
(1) the House of Representatives--
(A) recognizes the historical significance of
Juneteenth Independence Day to the Nation;
(B) supports the continued celebration of
Juneteenth Independence Day to provide an opportunity
for the people of the United States to learn more about
the past and to better understand the experiences that
have shaped the Nation; and
(C) encourages the people of the United States to
observe Juneteenth Independence Day with appropriate
ceremonies, activities, and programs; and
(2) it is the sense of the House of Representatives that--
(A) the celebration of the end of slavery is an
important and enriching part of the history and
heritage of the United States; and
(B) history should be regarded as a means for
understanding the past and solving the challenges of
the future.

Honoring the victims of the March 15, 2019, shootings at mosques in

_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 23, 2023
Ms. Omar (for herself, Mr. Carson, Mr. Higgins of New York, Mrs. Watson

referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Honoring the victims of the March 15, 2019, shootings at mosques in
Christchurch, New Zealand.
Whereas, on March 15, 2019, a White supremacist armed with military-style
semiautomatic weapons stormed the Al Noor Mosque and Linwood Islamic
Center indiscriminately shooting and murdering 51 children, women, and
men and injuring 40 others during Jumu'ah prayer in Christchurch, New
Zealand;
Whereas the entire attack seemed to be orchestrated for social media as the
gunman livestreamed parts of the terrorist attack on social media for 17
minutes using a head-mounted camera;
Whereas upon his arrest, the gunman admitted to police that his plan was to
target worshippers in a third mosque then burn down the mosques after
his attack, and that he wished he had done so;
Whereas the terrorist attack targeted individuals solely on the basis of their
religion and ethnicity and carried out in a place of worship;
Whereas these attacks were motivated by an extremist ideology of White supremacy
carried out by an individual who espoused racist and Islamophobic views;
Whereas Islamophobia has been a growing threat to communities around the world;
Whereas increased instances of Islamophobia and hate crimes committed against
Muslims, or those thought to be Muslim, are partly a result of the
response to the September 11, 2001, attacks, and the rise of hate speech
and false coverage in the media and online chatrooms that continue to
fuel the ignorance that drive certain individuals toward acts of hatred
and violence;
Whereas Islamophobia is an integral component of the White supremacist ``great
replacement'' conspiracy theory, which the shooter embraced;
Whereas the ``great replacement'' is an Islamophobic, antisemitic, racist,
xenophobic, and misogynist conspiracy theory suggesting that White
people are being intentionally ``replaced'' by ``invaders'';
Whereas the ``great replacement'' conspiracy theory and rhetoric depicting
immigrants and non-Whites as an ``invasion'' has been promoted by
Members of Congress and other national leaders;
Whereas subsequent mass shootings, including at a synagogue in Poway,
California, a Wal-Mart in El Paso, Texas, and a supermarket in Buffalo,
New York, were in part inspired by the Christchurch shootings and the
White supremacist ``great replacement'' conspiracy theory and
``invasion'' rhetoric he espoused;
Whereas such heinous acts of violence are an assault on the values of tolerance,
diversity, and inclusivity that are the foundation of a free and
democratic society;
Whereas the United States has experienced hundreds of public mass shootings in
churches, schools, concerts, and movie theaters;
Whereas in an average year, at least 10,300 hate crimes involve a firearm;
Whereas communities of color are disproportionately impacted by gun violence;
Whereas hate crimes harm not only the victim or victims, but also traumatize
entire communities and damage public confidence in their safety;
Whereas the Government of New Zealand responded to the attacks by banning
semiautomatic weapons and implementing a buyback program for gun owners;
Whereas we must stand in solidarity with the Muslim community in New Zealand and
around the world, and reaffirm our commitment to promoting understanding
and respect for all people, regardless of their background or beliefs;
and
Whereas Congress must do everything in its power to condemn and eradicate the
ideologies that fuel hate crimes: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) mourns the loss of the worshipers killed at the mosques
in Christchurch;
(2) recognizes and condemns the transnational threat of
White supremacist ideology, conspiracy theories, and violence;
(3) deplores attacks on people of all faiths in their
places of worship;
(4) affirms the rights of religious minorities in the
United States and around the world to practice their religions
in peace; and
(5) commits to ending gun violence.

H. RES. 251
Recognizing the 202d anniversary of the War of Greek Independence.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 24, 2023
Mr. Bilirakis (for himself, Mr. Pappas, Ms. Malliotakis, Ms. Titus, Mr.
Pallone, Mr. Sarbanes, Mr. Magaziner, and Mr. Smith of New Jersey)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the 202d anniversary of the War of Greek Independence.
Whereas the concept of democracy, in which the supreme power to govern was
vested in the people, was developed in ancient Greece;
Whereas the Founding Fathers of the United States were inspired by ancient Greek
political philosophy when forming the political system of the United
States;
Whereas the ideals enshrined in the Declaration of Independence inspired the
uprising of the Greek people against the Ottoman Empire and were
reflected in the revolutionary Greek Constitutions;
Whereas the War of Greek Independence initiated the struggle for self-
determination of all the occupied nations of the Ottoman Empire;
Whereas American philhellenes, including future abolitionist Dr. Samuel Gridley
Howe, future abolitionist Jonathan Peckham Miller, and George Jarvis,
traveled to Greece to fight alongside and provide aid to the Greek
people in their struggle for independence;
Whereas the people of the United States generously sent humanitarian assistance
to the people of Greece during their struggle for independence, often
through philhellene committees;
Whereas the United States and Greece have been allies in all international
conflicts throughout modern history;
Whereas the Greek-American community has positively contributed to American
society and has helped forge the ties between the United States and
Greece;
Whereas the United States has greatly contributed to the reconstruction of
Greece after World War II;
Whereas North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) membership has further
tightened the cooperation between the United States and Greece;
Whereas Greece is an integral part of the European Union;
Whereas Greece is a strategic partner of the United States in bringing political
stability and economic development to the Balkan region, having actively
contributed to the Euro-Atlantic integration of the countries of the
region and having been 1 of the major investors in southeastern Europe,
including in critical infrastructure;
Whereas the address of the Prime Minister of Greece, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, to a
joint session of Congress in May 2022 consolidated the strong ties
between the 2 countries, based on shared values, as well as the
importance of the Greek-American community for the United States;
Whereas Greece participates in and actively promotes several schemes of regional
partnership in the Eastern Mediterranean;
Whereas the United States has demonstrated its support for the trilateral
partnership of Greece, Israel, and Cyprus by enacting into law the
Eastern Mediterranean Security and Energy Partnership Act of 2019, and
through joint engagement with Greece, Israel, and Cyprus in the ``3+1''
format;
Whereas this support was reiterated in the United States-Greece Defense and
Interparliamentary Partnership Act, included in the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022, establishing a 3+1
Interparliamentary Group to discuss the expansion of cooperation in
other areas of common concern;
Whereas the United States and Greece's commitment to security cooperation led to
the conclusion of a Mutual Defense Cooperation Agreement, which was
updated in 2021, in order to enhance defense ties between the 2
countries and promote stability in the broader region;
Whereas the ongoing United States-Greece Strategic Dialogue reflects Greece's
importance to the United States as a geostrategic partner, namely in the
Eastern Mediterranean and Balkans and as an important NATO ally;
Whereas the Governments and people of Greece and the United States are at the
forefront of international efforts to advance freedom, democracy, rule
of law, human rights, peace, and stability;
Whereas those efforts and similar ideals have forged a close bond between the
peoples of Greece and the United States; and
Whereas it is proper and desirable for the United States to celebrate the 202d
anniversary of the March 25, 1821, Greek Independence Day with the
people of Greece, and to reaffirm the democratic principles from which
those 2 great countries were founded: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) extends warm congratulations and best wishes to the
people of Greece as they celebrate the 202d anniversary of the
War of Greek Independence;
(2) expresses support for the principles of democracy,
human rights, and the rule of law to which the people of the
United States and Greece are committed;
(3) notes the important role that Greece has played in the
wider European region and in the community of nations since
gaining its independence;
(4) commends the Greek-American community for its
contributions to the United States and its role as a bridge
between the 2 countries; and
(5) commends the geostrategic importance of Greece at the
junction of 3 continents and in particular the critical role
Greece plays in promoting stability in the Eastern
Mediterranean and Western Balkans.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 252
Condemning the violent ``Stop Cop City'' movement in Atlanta, Georgia.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 24, 2023
Mr. Carter of Georgia (for himself, Mr. Clyde, Mr. Ferguson, Mr. Austin
Scott of Georgia, Mr. McCormick, Mr. Loudermilk, and Mr. Allen)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on the Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Condemning the violent ``Stop Cop City'' movement in Atlanta, Georgia.
Whereas the violence occurred at the construction site of the Atlanta Public
Safety Training Center, also known as ``Cop City'';
Whereas violent protesters and rioters in the ``Stop Cop City'' movement from
across the Nation and the globe have been objecting to the construction
of the Training Center by destroying property and coordinating attacks;
Whereas, on March 5, 2023, this group clashed with the Atlanta Police
Department, and 23 people were arrested on domestic terrorism charges
for attacking officers and destroying equipment;
Whereas only 2 of those arrested were from the State of Georgia and would have a
relevant voice on policing issues in Atlanta and the State;
Whereas destruction of property and vandalism, including the use of Molotov
cocktails and fireworks, further damages the local ecology despite the
protesters' claims of opposing ``ecological destruction'';
Whereas such violence perpetuates the trend of violent attacks against law
enforcement and public officials;
Whereas sentiments of the ``Defund Police'' movement have contributed to
increased violence against law enforcement over the last few years;
Whereas major urban cities saw a 42 percent increase in homicides and a 34
percent increase in aggravated assaults in 2022 as compared to 2019;
Whereas, in 2021, law enforcement agencies across the Nation were short 7
percent of filling budgeted positions, and retirements were up 45
percent;
Whereas the Training Center would positively contribute to proper training of
police officers; and
Whereas the Training Center is necessary for morale and recruitment efforts and
will include important trainings, such as deescalation, crisis
intervention, civil rights history education, mental health, and more:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That--
(1) the House of Representatives condemns the recent
violence near Atlanta, Georgia; and
(2) it is the sense of the House of Representatives that
law enforcement must be supported to carry out their jobs and
protect American lives.

1st Session
H. RES. 253
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that Vice
President Kamala Harris should be removed from her position as the head
of the Biden administration's strategy to address the root causes of
migration.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 24, 2023
Mr. Jackson of Texas (for himself, Mr. Babin, Mr. Mike Garcia of
California, Mr. Meuser, and Mr. Weber of Texas) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, and
in addition to the Committees on Homeland Security, Ways and Means, and
Foreign Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the
Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall
within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that Vice
President Kamala Harris should be removed from her position as the head
of the Biden administration's strategy to address the root causes of
migration.
Whereas, on March 24, 2021, Vice President Kamala Harris was named ``Border
Czar'' in charge of leading efforts to stem migration across the United
States-Mexico border;
Whereas Vice President Harris has visited the southern border once since
President Biden appointed her to lead efforts to stem migration across
the United States-Mexico border;
Whereas border security is national security and the ongoing influx of migrants
poses a significant threat to the public health and safety of our
communities;
Whereas, under the Biden administration, a historic number of illegal
immigrants, violent criminals, and deadly drugs have flooded into our
communities through the southern border;
Whereas over 4,500,000 migrants have illegally crossed our southern border since
January 2021;
Whereas U.S. Customs and Border Protection seized over 14,700 pounds of illicit
fentanyl in fiscal year 2022, enough to kill over 3,000,000,000 people;
Whereas, in the first 5 months of fiscal year 2023, 69 people whose names appear
on the terrorist watchlist were encountered at the southern border,
totaling more than fiscal years 2017 through 2021 combined;
Whereas the Biden administration has allowed for mass migration to the United
States by allowing politics to cloud its judgment when assessing
policies;
Whereas our southern border is less safe now than it ever has been; and
Whereas U.S. Customs and Border Protection is overwhelmed and lacks resources
needed due to Vice President Harris's refusal to address the issues:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives urges the Biden
administration to--
(1) remove Vice President Kamala Harris as the head of any
executive branch task force or strategy relating to
immigration;
(2) appoint an experienced and competent leader to replace
Vice President Kamala Harris as the head of the Biden
administration's strategy to address the root causes of
migration;
(3) recognize that border security is national security;
(4) immediately provide U.S. Customs and Border Protection
with the adequate support and resources to do their job
effectively and adequately;
(5) immediately reinistate the Migrant Protection
Protocols;
(6) take action to protect American communities from
fentanyl; and
(7) stop allowing politics in Washington to cloud their
judgment regarding policies implemented at the southern border.

Mr. LaHood submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of the week of March 26, 2023,
through April 1, 2023, as ``National Cleaning Week''.
Whereas cleaning and disinfection are an investment in protecting human health
and safety;
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stresses the importance
of routine cleaning and disinfecting to protect public health;
Whereas ISSA, the Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association, found that routine
cleaning and disinfection reduce the number of surfaces contaminated by
viruses by 62 percent and thereby significantly reduce the rate of
transmission of infectious diseases;
Whereas manufacturers and distributors produce and deliver critical cleaning and
hygiene products; and
Whereas essential frontline cleaning professionals work tirelessly to keep our
schools, hospitals, workplaces, and other spaces healthy and safe for us
all: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the commitment and essential services
provided by the cleaning industry in maintaining clean and
sanitary conditions; and
(2) supports the designation of ``National Cleaning Week''
to continue to promote safe and clean environments at work, in
schools, and at home.

H. RES. 256
Observing the 29th anniversary of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi
in Rwanda.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 27, 2023
Mr. Kelly of Mississippi submitted the following resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Observing the 29th anniversary of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi
in Rwanda.
Whereas the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda has been internationally
recognized as the massacre of nearly 1,000,000 Tutsi within a four-month
period by the nation's Hutu-led Government and Hutu neighbors as part of
a systematic program of genocide;
Whereas moderate Hutu who were opposed to the Hutu-led Government's genocidal
plan were also murdered during this time;
Whereas this atrocity constituted a grave violation of human rights and the rule
of law, causing untold pain and suffering;
Whereas the genocide against the Tutsi has left a solemn reminder that the
United States and countries around the world must work together to
protect the vulnerable, uphold human rights, and prevent genocide;
Whereas on April 7 of each year since 1994 the world has commemorated the
genocide against the Tutsi to honor the memory of the men, women, and
children who died and to express solidarity with the survivors; and
Whereas this commemoration not only remembers the victims of the genocide
against the Tutsi in Rwanda but also helps to build bridges of
understanding between different people and fortify the commitment to
human rights, protection against persecution and violence, individual
liberty, and a free society for all people: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) observes the 29th anniversary of the 1994 genocide
against the Tutsi in Rwanda and remembers the victims and
survivors of this tragedy;
(2) recognizes the ongoing efforts of the people and
Government of Rwanda to promote peace, reconciliation, and
development, and pledges to continue its support for these
efforts; and
(3) reaffirms its commitment to preventing genocide and
other mass atrocities, and to promoting human rights and
democratic values around the world.

H. RES. 257
Supporting the goals and ideals of a ``Social Work Month'' and a
``World Social Work Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 27, 2023
Ms. Lee of California submitted the following resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the goals and ideals of a ``Social Work Month'' and a
``World Social Work Day''.
Whereas social workers enter the profession because they have a strong desire to
help empower individuals, families, communities, and our Nation to
overcome issues that prevent them from reaching their full potential;
Whereas social workers have worked for more than a century to improve human
health and well-being and enhance the basic needs of all people;
Whereas social workers follow a code of ethics that calls on them to fight
social injustice and respect the dignity and worth of all people;
Whereas social workers positively touch the lives of millions of Americans each
day and in an array of settings, including schools, hospitals, the
military, child welfare agencies, and community centers, and in Federal,
State, and local government;
Whereas the 2023 ``Social Work Month'' theme, ``Social Work Breaks Barriers'',
embodies how social workers help empower individuals, families,
communities, and our society to overcome hurdles that prevent them from
achieving better health and well-being;
Whereas social workers are one of the largest providers of mental health,
behavioral health, and social care services in the United States,
working daily to help thousands of Americans overcome mental illnesses
such as depression and anxiety, and meet basic needs;
Whereas social workers are on the frontlines of the Nation's addiction crisis,
helping people get the treatment they need and prevail over substance
use disorders;
Whereas social workers help people cope with death and grief;
Whereas social workers help people and communities recover from natural
disasters that are increasingly fueled by our warming climate, including
hurricanes, droughts, and floods;
Whereas social workers continue to help this Nation live up to its values by
advocating for equal rights for all, including people of color, people
who are Indigenous, people who identify as LGBTQIA2S+, and people who
follow various faiths;
Whereas the social work profession is one of the fastest growing professions in
the United States, but still not large enough to meet the demand;
Whereas there is a need to make a meaningful investment in recruitment and
retention of the social work profession;
Whereas social workers serve in all levels of government;
Whereas social workers have continued to push for changes that have made our
society a better place to live, including a livable wage, improved
workplace safety, and social safety net programs that help ameliorate
poverty, hunger, and homelessness; and
Whereas social workers endeavor to work throughout our society to meet people
where they are and help empower people and our society to reach the
goals they wish to attain: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of a ``Social Work
Month'' and a ``World Social Work Day'';
(2) recognizes with gratitude the contributions of the
millions of social workers who have advanced individual,
family, community, and the Nation's health and well-being since
the founding of the social work profession over a century ago,
and continue to do so today;
(3) acknowledges the diligent efforts of individuals and
groups who promote the importance of social work and observe
``Social Work Month'' and ``World Social Work Day''; and
(4) encourages individuals to engage in appropriate
ceremonies and activities to promote further awareness of the
life-changing role that social workers play.

H. RES. 258
Expressing support for designation of a Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans
Day.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 27, 2023
Ms. Sanchez (for herself, Mr. Cohen, Mr. Johnson of Georgia, Mr.
Kilmer, Mr. Peters, Mr. Himes, Mr. Gallagher, and Mr. Waltz) submitted
the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on
Veterans' Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for designation of a Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans
Day.
Whereas the Vietnam War was fought in Vietnam from 1961 to 1975, and involved
North Vietnam and the Viet Cong in conflict with the United States Armed
Forces and South Vietnam;
Whereas the United States became involved in Vietnam because policymakers in the
United States believed that if South Vietnam fell to a Communist
Government then Communism would spread throughout the rest of Southeast
Asia;
Whereas members of the United States Armed Forces began serving in an advisory
role to the South Vietnamese in 1961;
Whereas, as a result of the Gulf of Tonkin incidents on August 2, 1964, and
August 4, 1964, Congress overwhelmingly passed the Gulf of Tonkin
Resolution, on August 7, 1964, which effectively handed over war-making
powers to President Johnson until such time as ``peace and security''
had returned to Vietnam;
Whereas in 1965, United States Armed Forces ground combat units arrived in
Vietnam;
Whereas, by the end of 1965, there were 80,000 United States troops in Vietnam,
and by 1969 a peak of approximately 543,000 troops was reached;
Whereas, on January 27, 1973, the Treaty of Paris was signed, which required the
release of all United States prisoners-of-war held in North Vietnam and
the withdrawal of all United States Armed Forces from South Vietnam;
Whereas, on March 29, 1973, the United States Armed Forces completed the
withdrawal of combat troops from Vietnam;
Whereas March 30, 1973, was the first day that combat troops were no longer
present in Vietnam;
Whereas more than 58,000 members of the United States Armed Forces lost their
lives in Vietnam and more than 300,000 members of the Armed Forces were
wounded;
Whereas, in 1982, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated in the District of
Columbia to commemorate those members of the United States Armed Forces
who died or were declared missing-in-action in Vietnam;
Whereas the Vietnam War was an extremely divisive issue among the people of the
United States;
Whereas members of the United States Armed Forces who served bravely and
faithfully for the United States during the Vietnam War were caught upon
their return home in the crossfire of public debate about the
involvement of the United States in the Vietnam War;
Whereas the establishment of a Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day would be an
appropriate way to honor those members of the United States Armed Forces
who served in Vietnam during the Vietnam War; and
Whereas the last Saturday of March, 2023, would be an appropriate day to
establish as ``Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day'': Now, therefore, be
it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of Welcome Home Vietnam
Veterans Day;
(2) honors and recognizes the contributions of veterans of
the Armed Forces who served in Vietnam; and
(3) encourages the people of the United States to observe
Welcome Home Vietnam Veterans Day with appropriate ceremonies
and activities that promote awareness of the contributions of
veterans who served in Vietnam and the importance of helping
Vietnam era veterans re-adjust to civilian life.

<DOC>
118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 259
Promoting youth mental health and well-being in a changing climate.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 27, 2023
Mr. Thompson of California (for himself and Ms. Castor of Florida)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Energy and Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Promoting youth mental health and well-being in a changing climate.
Whereas there is a significant, negative impact that a rapid and ongoing
changing climate has on youth in the United States;
Whereas youth are especially vulnerable to the physical and mental health
impacts of climate-related disasters and the cumulative toll youth will
endure from additional exposure to increasing climate-related disasters;
Whereas youth represent a particularly vulnerable group because greenhouse gases
emitted into the atmosphere will impact today's and tomorrow's youth
throughout their biological, psychological, academic, and social
development;
Whereas an American Psychological Association and ecoAmerica report stated that,
as of 2016, as climate-related disasters continue to increase, more
youth will be directly affected by increasing rates of stress and trauma
through interruption in schooling, disruptions in routine, separation
from caregivers due to evacuations or displacement, and parental stress
after a disaster;
Whereas recent studies cited in the American Psychological Association and
ecoAmerica report have documented that high levels of stress during
childhood, such as those associated with the experience of a climate-
related disaster or displacement, can affect the development of neural
pathways in ways that impair memory, executive function, and decision
making in later life;
Whereas a 2016 Social Science and Medicine study found that experiencing an
extreme weather event before age 5 resulted in higher levels of anxiety
and depression among adults;
Whereas recent studies confirm individuals from low-income communities,
indigenous communities, and communities of color are often the most
vulnerable to the worst impacts of a changing climate, such as flooding,
drought, fire, and extreme heat;
Whereas a study by the American Public Health Association and ecoAmerica
entitled, ``Making the Connection: Climate Changes Mental Health'',
shows that up to 45 percent of youth have developed depression after a
climate-related disaster, affecting both their caregivers and the youth
themselves;
Whereas a National Library of Medicine study found an association between
increases in pediatric psychiatrist visits and polluted air from
wildfires;
Whereas there are direct links between fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) exposure
and neuropsychological effects, such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder, decreased memory, depleted academic performance, and autism;
Whereas, according to a 2017 report by the Lancet Planetary Health Journal,
``The Impact of Climate Change on Youth Depression and Mental Health'',
an increase in emergency department visits was incited by higher levels
of humidity and rising temperatures;
Whereas, in 2021, 64 percent of individuals in the United States lived in places
that experienced a multi-day heat wave, considered the most dangerous
form of climate-related disaster;
Whereas the frequency and intensity of climate-related disasters is increasing
exponentially;
Whereas a 2019 report suggested that as the frequency of heat waves increases
due to the changing climate, school-based outdoor recreational
opportunities for youth that benefit mental and physical well-being will
be curtailed by extreme heat;
Whereas, in 2020, a poll from the Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation found
that 57 percent of teenagers stated they were frightened by climate
change, while 52 percent were angered by it and a mere 29 percent of
youth were optimistic for the future;
Whereas, according to a 2021 study surveying over 10,000 youth, 45 percent of
respondents reported that thoughts of climate change have affected their
daily lives and abilities negatively;
Whereas, in 2021, the National Association of School Psychologists, representing
more than 25,000 members, declared the need to increase awareness of the
harmful effects of climate change on youth, increase resources, and
advocate for climate justice;
Whereas the American Psychological Association has issued a report stating that
children are among the individuals in the United States facing the
greatest impacts of climate change;
Whereas the National Scientific Council on the Developing Child has concluded
that children and youth fare better during adversity if they also have
the help of noncaregiver role models, such as teachers or coaches; and
Whereas the World Health Organization acknowledges that mental health isn't just
the absence of mental health disorders, but also encompasses the human
capacity to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities,
learn well and work well, and contribute to their community: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) shall take effective action on climate change, guided
by the science provided in the 2021 United Nations
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, to protect
the mental health and well-being of current and future youth;
and
(2) supports the expansion of funding for climate
education, resilience, and adaptation projects that benefit the
mental health and well-being of youth, including--
(A) incorporating trauma-informed approaches to
mental health into existing disaster preparation
efforts;
(B) engaging in education and outreach to reduce
the stigma associated with seeking treatment;
(C) reducing cost and increasing access for
treatment (such as through Federally qualified health
centers and mobile and virtual health care);
(D) increasing insurance and reimbursement under
the Medicare program under title XVIII of the Social
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395 et seq.) and the Medicaid
program under title XIX of such Act (42 U.S.C. 1396 et
seq.) for mental health care treatment;
(E) funding community-wide vulnerability
assessments;
(F) addressing inequity by studying the impacts of
income disparity at local levels that have been linked
to higher community-wide vulnerability to climate risk;
(G) expanding local, place-based, mutual aid
networks that supply mental health support during and
post climate-related disaster events and proactively
promote mental and emotional resilience; and
(H) providing direct funding to school districts
that need immediate resources to help children and
families cope with the mental health effects of
continued climate-related disasters.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 26
Expressing support for replacing the term ``Thank you for your
service'' with ``Thank you for our freedom''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
January 11, 2023
Mr. Bergman (for himself and Mr. Correa) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Armed Services, and
in addition to the Committee on Veterans' Affairs, for a period to be
subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration
of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee
concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for replacing the term ``Thank you for your
service'' with ``Thank you for our freedom''.
Whereas the House of Representatives recognizes the brave service of members of
the regular and reserve components of the Armed Forces, veterans, and
their families;
Whereas the House of Representatives hereby renews its commitment to support and
thank these men and women for preserving our freedom so that Americans
will always remember their crucial role in our history and our
aspiration for a world protected under the banner of freedom;
Whereas, though Americans are proud to show appreciation for the service of
members of the Armed Forces and veterans, the real message should be
direct and personal: ``Thank you for our freedom'';
Whereas, at the close of World War II, Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral
Chester Nimitz, selected Roy ``Butch'' Voris to form a Navy flight
exhibition team, later to be known as the Blue Angels, and, as the First
Blue Angel, Butch created an image that became symbolic of the United
States Navy, American patriotism, and American freedom;
Whereas one day, while having lunch with a fellow aviator and wearing his ``1st
Blue'' ball cap, someone walked by Butch's table and said, ``Thank you
for your service'';
Whereas Butch's friend realized that Butch was surprised so he explained that
this was a phrase that people said to show appreciation for the
military, and, without missing a beat, Butch announced for all to hear,
``He should thank us for his freedom'';
Whereas Butch has since passed but his message should live on forever, and, in
honor of all who currently serve in the Armed Forcecs, and our
20,000,000 living veterans, the House of Representatives proclaims that
the best way to show recognition, respect, and honor for those who have
and continue to put their lives on the line is to declare ``Thank you
for our freedom'';
Whereas our Nation has many sacred obligations, including preparation of, and
support for, the troops sent into harm's way, and to care for them and
their families when they return home;
Whereas for far too long, our Nation has fallen short in our obligation to our
military, and in addition to support and care, the Nation is are
committed to ensuring that all our currently serving members, veterans,
and their families, caregivers, and survivors, receive the respect they
have earned, and we declare ``Thank you for our freedom'' is to be
embraced;
Whereas this message will be the banner of freedom to unify our Nation;
Whereas regardless of our personal preferences and leanings, the House of
Representatives is united in the mission to keep our country free, and
our ability to disagree is provided by the freedoms protected by these
men and women;
Whereas the House of Representatives calls on the President to support this
message and aid in spreading this message to the citizens of our
country;
Whereas the House of Representatives calls on Members of Congress to take this
message back to their constituents and embrace ``Thank you for our
freedom''; and
Whereas the House of Representatives call on citizens of the United States, here
and abroad, to show their support for the freedoms that have been
provided for them, and among the many ways to express their thanks, we
invite citizens to embrace ``Thank you for our freedom'' across all
forms of communication and social media in appreciation to all who serve
or have served: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives expresses support for
the term ``Thank you for our freedom'' as the way to respect members of
the Armed Forces and veterans.

Mrs. Cherfilus-McCormick, Mr. Vargas, Ms. Jacobs, Mr. Sherman, and Mr.
Jackson of Illinois) submitted the following resolution; which was
referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Reaffirming the importance of diplomacy and development in United
States-African Union relations, promoting strategic partnerships and
shared objectives between the United States and the African Union, and
expressing strong support for the successful implementation of the
African Continental Free Trade Area.
Whereas, since the formation of the African Union in July 2002, succeeding the
Organization of African Unity founded in 1963, the African Union has set
out notable goals to foster peace and security, socioeconomic
development and growth, democratic and accountable governance, and
economic engagement and investment across the continent and its member
States;
Whereas the United States Government recognized the African Union as an
international organization in 2005, and initiated the United States
Mission to the African Union in 2006, making the United States the first
non-African country to establish a diplomatic mission to the African
Union;
Whereas the United States has collaborated with the African Union since 2002,
and in 2010, the United States and the African Union held their first
bilateral meeting of senior officials, which sought to strengthen mutual
United States-African Union interests, promote shared values in a new
strategic partnership, and foster cooperation on a range of issues,
notably those relating to peace and security, democratic governance,
economic growth, public health, and food security in Africa;
Whereas the Department of State continues to maintain robust relations with the
African Union through the annual United States-African Union Commission
High-Level Dialogue between the Secretary of State and Chairperson of
the African Union Commission in addition to sub-cabinet officials across
the United States Government and their African Union counterparts, and
the eighth annual dialogue in March 2022 reaffirmed both parties'
commitment to collaboration on issues of global concern;
Whereas the second United States-Africa Leaders Summit was held in December 2022
and affirmed renewed United States engagement with the African
Continent, including in areas related to peace and security, public
health and infectious disease outbreaks, food security, human rights,
and economic development;
Whereas the African Union has mobilized peacekeeping missions to regions on the
continent experiencing conflict and in 2018 revitalized the Peace Fund
through which its member states will finance African peace and security
operations;
Whereas the United States has provided security support to the African Union
Commission Peace Support Operations Division and 23 African nations;
Whereas the United States supports the African Union's Agenda 2063 goal of
fostering improved education on the continent and the development of the
next generation of African leaders through support for basic and
secondary education, the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI), and
people-to-people ties through cultural and educational exchange programs
benefitting Africa's youth and young Americans seeking to enhance their
understanding of the continent;
Whereas the United States continues to support the member States of the African
Union through various longstanding global health initiatives, including
the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the President's
Malaria Initiative, and efforts to combat infectious disease outbreaks
and build the capacity of health systems to benefit the health and well-
being of hundreds of millions of Africans;
Whereas the United States partnered with the African Union to establish the
Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC) and
remains strongly committed to assisting the Africa CDC in its fight
against COVID-19 and other infectious disease outbreaks;
Whereas the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting border closures, travel and
commercial activity restrictions, and supply chain challenges shrunk
African economic output by $95 billion in 2020 alone according to the
International Monetary Fund, highlighting the need for the African Union
and its member States to expand their capacities to mitigate future
economic shocks through self-reliance and regional economic integration;
Whereas the United States African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) initiated
and expanded trade with four-fifths of sub-Saharan African countries
since its enactment in 2001 and established an important instrument for
engaging African nations on issues of trade, capacity building, good
governance, human rights protections, and economic growth and job
creation in the United States and Africa;
Whereas the African Union's formation in 2018 of the African Continental Free
Trade Area (AfCFTA) has created the world's largest trade bloc by number
of countries with the potential to substantially boost economic growth,
create economic opportunities for women and youth, promote significant
commercial investment, and fundamentally transform and expand economic
engagement on the continent;
Whereas the World Bank estimates that full implementation of the AfCFTA could:
surge Africa's cumulative GDP by approximately $450 billion--with most
of those gains coming from streamlining the cost and efficiency of
customs procedures, raise the total value of Africa's exports in goods
and services by $560 billion (40 percent of which will be from intra-
African trade), lift 30 million Africans out of extreme poverty, boost
the wages of African women and unskilled workers in particular, and
enhance manufacturing production while increasing the rest of the
world's GDP by $76 billion;
Whereas the Department of State, United States Agency for International
Development, and other United States development agencies have
facilitated private sector investment and United States commercial
engagement in Africa through interagency initiatives such as Power
Africa and Prosper Africa, and continue to promote regional integration
in sectors such as technology, infrastructure, transportation,
telecommunications, and energy; and
Whereas the United States recognizes the importance of the strategic partnership
between the United States and the African Union and is committed to
advancing their continued mutually advantageous cooperation, including
by promoting and expanding economic engagement with and within Africa:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) notes the African Union's efforts toward strengthening
political and governance institutions across the continent and
encourages the African Union and its member countries to
prioritize and advance political and economic reforms which
uphold human rights, combat corruption, create an enabling
business climate for private sector investment, and promote
transparent and accountable governance;
(2) affirms the sustained use of diplomacy and multilateral
engagement with the African Union and its member countries on
areas of mutual benefit to African countries and the United
States and calls for urgent efforts to explore expanded
partnerships with the African Union and its member countries to
promote security and stability, strengthen economic engagement,
and address infectious disease outbreaks, humanitarian crises,
and food insecurity;
(3) supports the strengthening of technical and operational
capacities of the African Union and sub-regional organizations
to effectively address peace and security challenges and
mobilize African resources to bolster continent-led
stabilization missions;
(4) underscores the significance of the African Union's
promotion of inclusive regional economic development,
initiation of the AfCFTA, and advancement of continental
economic integration;
(5) supports efforts to partner with the AfCFTA Secretariat
and African Union to facilitate the implementation of the
AfCFTA, including by building regional capacity and encouraging
commercial investment, deeper economic ties, and public-private
partnerships; and
(6) encourages President Biden and Secretary Blinken to
carry out the commitments from the United States-Africa Leaders
Summit, including initiatives to bolster trade, investment, and
inclusive economic growth, elevate diplomatic engagement,
combat food insecurity and climate change, invest in
technological innovation and health care, protect democracy,
and promote peace and security.

1st Session
H. RES. 262
Supporting the teaching of climate change in schools.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 28, 2023
Ms. Lee of California (for herself, Mr. Frost, Mrs. Hayes, Mr.
Blumenauer, Ms. Clarke of New York, Mr. Cleaver, Mr. Davis of Illinois,
Mr. Huffman, Ms. Moore of Wisconsin, Mr. Nadler, Mr. Panetta, Ms.
Schrier, Ms. Sewell, Mr. Tonko, and Ms. Williams of Georgia) submitted
the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on
Education and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the teaching of climate change in schools.
Whereas, to respond meaningfully to our rapidly changing climate, youth must be
educated about the causes, ongoing effects, and current and potential
solutions for the changing climate;
Whereas confronting the challenges of a changing climate requires bipartisan
effort focused on educating and empowering future generations;
Whereas the impacts of climate-related disasters threaten the physical and
mental safety of students by keeping them out of school, damaging
infrastructure, and exacerbating Adverse Childhood Experiences;
Whereas, in 2021, the National Association of School Psychologists passed a
resolution declaring that climate change negatively impacts the mental
health of youth and asserting that climate education is a key factor in
supporting student agency, self-efficacy, and resilience;
Whereas climate change disproportionately affects the fundamental rights of
children to a climate system capable of sustaining human life, and which
is preservative of fundamental rights, including the rights to life,
liberty, property, and education;
Whereas failing to provide climate education to all students in our Nation
worsens an existing education gap and limits career opportunities,
exacerbating the impact of environmental pollution, redlining, and
sacrifice zones;
Whereas K-12 climate education has widespread support, and according to a recent
National Public Radio survey, 84 percent of parents with children under
18 years of age and 86 percent of teachers in the United States support
climate education;
Whereas, according to a 2021 national Yale Climate Communications survey,
teaching about global warming is 1 of 3 most supported climate policy
solutions, with 77 percent of respondents in support;
Whereas research suggests that implementing climate education at a national
scale can reduce emissions at the same magnitude as solar panels and
electric vehicles;
Whereas investments in high school vocational trade and job training programs
are critical in preparing the next generation to quickly engage in the
estimated 9,000,000 renewable energy, clean infrastructure, and
environmental restoration jobs by 2032;
Whereas, according to the Department of Energy 2022 Employment Report Fact
Sheet, ``renewable energy added the most new jobs in the electricity
generation sector from 2020 to 2021'';
Whereas, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2 of the 3 fastest growing
jobs are in the renewable energy sector, and these job openings are
outpacing the number of workers qualified to fill them; and
Whereas, in order to deploy climate solutions at the necessary pace according to
the best available science, the United States must engage the education
sector at the local educational agency, State, and Federal levels: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the integration, funding, and implementation
of interdisciplinary, solution-based climate education
curriculum into K-12 schools in the States, the District of
Columbia, indigenous communities, and territories and
possessions of the United States;
(2) encourages the Department of Education to work
alongside States and local educational agencies to define and
implement comprehensive and interdisciplinary climate education
standards, according to the best available science;
(3) calls on the Department of Education to support
research that measures the impacts of climate education on
student behavior;
(4) affirms that climate education should be compatible
with various learning styles in order to provide equitable
access to all students;
(5) encourages local and regional school boards to
implement place-based, solution-oriented, and developmentally
appropriate climate education in all grade levels and multiple
subject areas;
(6) encourages those who develop climate education
curricula to address climate-induced trauma, acknowledging the
growing impact of climate change on youths' mental health;
(7) commits to taking immediate action to advance climate
education in the United States by providing funding and support
for teacher education, professional development, and the
creation of best practices for national climate education
curricula and teaching standards;
(8) encourages the incorporation of climate change
education as a critical component of the National Climate
Action Plan as a quantifiable means of emissions reduction and
as an essential leverage point for scaling climate solutions
and promoting resilience in local communities;
(9) calls for the formation of an Office of Climate
Literacy and Career Development and a Climate Education Task
Force in the Department of Education in order to support local
educational agencies in implementing climate education and
creating vocational programs to educate and prepare students
for renewable energy, transportation, and regenerative
agricultural careers;
(10) supports the efforts of States and school boards to
require climate education in curricular guidelines and affirms
the rights of parents to advocate for the well-being of their
children and the planet; and
(11) encourages policymakers, States, local educational
agencies, and schools to work with students, teachers, and
climate scientists when developing and implementing climate
education programs to reflect the voices of young people and
educators.

1st Session
H. RES. 263
Condemning Turkey for its illegal occupation of Cyprus and encouraging
President Biden to make the resolution of the Cyprus problem a top
foreign policy priority.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 28, 2023
Ms. Malliotakis (for herself, Mr. Bilirakis, Mr. Pappas, and Ms. Titus)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Condemning Turkey for its illegal occupation of Cyprus and encouraging
President Biden to make the resolution of the Cyprus problem a top
foreign policy priority.
Whereas Turkey has been a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) member since
1952 and is thus a treaty ally of the United States;
Whereas modern Turkey was founded upon the principles of republicanism and
laicite;
Whereas Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the authoritarian leader of
Turkey since 2003, has grounded his decision making in an extremist form
of religio-nationalism;
Whereas, under President Erdogan, Turkey seeks to establish itself as the
hegemon of the Eastern Mediterranean, North Africa, and the Caucuses,
and as a result has taken provocative actions toward NATO allies, the
European Union, and the broader region;
Whereas President Erdogan's expansionist political ideology necessitates
aggression toward Cyprus;
Whereas the Government of Turkey ordered its military to invade the Republic of
Cyprus in 1974 in violation of the Treaty of Establishment, the Treaty
of Alliance, the North Atlantic Treaty, and the Treaty of Guarantee,
which established the Republic of Cyprus and guaranteed the independence
of the Republic of Cyprus, as well as the United Nations Charter and
customary international law;
Whereas the Government of Turkey has tolerated or abetted the desecration of
more than 500 Orthodox Christian churches and religious sites in the
territory of the Republic of Cyprus that the Turkish military occupies;
Whereas the Government of Turkey has brought in over 200,000 illegal settlers
into the occupied area of Cyprus to change the sociopolitical and
demographic fabric of the area, in violation of the Geneva Conventions;
Whereas Turkey is a member state of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR);
Whereas the ECHR has issued decisions and judgments in which the Court confirms
that persons, including United States citizens, who hold title to real
property located in the area of the Republic of Cyprus occupied by the
Turkish military are the only rightful owners of that real property, but
Turkey has refused to comply with the ECHR judgment;
Whereas, despite having agreed to do so, the Government of Turkey has failed to
support international efforts to find and identify the remains of
persons, including four United States citizens who remain missing since
the Turkish invasion of the Republic of Cyprus in 1974;
Whereas Turkey illegally violates the Cyprus Exclusive Economic Zone;
Whereas President Erdogan has illegally reopened the beach in Varosha, a once-
thriving tourist town which the Turkish military ethnically cleansed of
its Greek Cypriot population in 1974;
Whereas President Erdogan has openly called for a ``two-state'' solution
regarding Cyprus, in violation of United Nations resolutions,
international law, and the position of the United States Government,
which is that a Cyprus solution should be within the framework of a
bizonal, bicommunal federation; and
Whereas, in a January 27, 1989, letter to a prominent Greek-American leader from
Delaware, Dr. Dean Lomis, then-Senator Biden stated: ``. . . we must
urge the new Administration [President George H.W. Bush] to make Cyprus
a higher policy priority in American foreign policy . . . we cannot lose
sight of the fact that the rights of Greek Cypriots have been trampled
upon, and we must ensure that their claims to ancestral land and
property seized during the 1974 invasion are not compromised. Finally,
we must send a signal to Turkey that until it has removed every last
soldier from Cyprus, it will never be recognized as a full member of the
international community.'': Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) strongly condemns Turkey's continued occupation of
Cyprus, and calls upon Turkey to immediately withdraw all of
its estimated 35,000 occupying troops from the island;
(2) calls upon Turkey to adhere to the democratic
principles and mission of the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization;
(3) reiterates that the settlement of the Cyprus problem
needs to be based on a bizonal, bicommunal federation in a
State with single sovereignty and international personality,
and that this entity should embrace constitutional democratic
norms and American principles, the European Union (EU) acquis
Communautaire and EU Founding Treaty, United Nations
resolutions on Cyprus, and pertinent decisions of the European
Court of Human Rights and other European courts;
(4) calls on Turkey to cease and desist from its illegal
interference in the Cyprus Exclusive Economic Zone;
(5) calls on the Turkish Government to provide avenues for
American citizens to seek financial remedies or restitution for
their property losses in the Turkish-occupied territory of
Cyprus;
(6) demands Turkey's cooperation in helping recover the
four American citizens who are still missing as a result of the
1974 invasion of Cyprus;
(7) calls on Turkey to remove its over 200,000 illegal
settlers from Turkish-occupied Cyprus and assist in
repatriating Greek-Cypriot refugees to their ancestral homes;
and
(8) encourages President Biden to make the resolution of
the Cyprus problem a top foreign policy priority for his
Administration, a position that President Biden has held for
decades.

RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the goals of Workplace Eye Wellness Month by
promoting the importance of protecting the eyes from increased screen
time.
Whereas the rise of computer usage during the COVID-19 pandemic has increased
cases of digital eye strain.
Whereas symptoms of digital eye strain, also referred to as computer vision
syndrome, include tired, burning, or itching eyes, dry eyes, blurred
vision and/or headache.
Whereas the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires
that employers take appropriate measures to ensure that their employees
are protected against potential workplace eye injuries.
Whereas, to help prevent workplace eye injuries, it is important for individuals
to keep the following tips in mind:
(1) When working at a computer, take breaks every 15 minutes to relax
the eyes.
(2) Sit about 30 inches away from the screen.
(3) Review your work space for potential hazards before starting work.
(4) Wear protective eyewear in areas that pose the risk of injury.
(5) Always use appropriate protective eyewear that fits, such as
goggles, safety glasses, welding helmets, full-face respirators, or face
shields.
(6) Stay up-to-date on first aid procedures for common workplace
injuries and make sure that the first aid kit is well stocked.
(7) Encourage coworkers and new hires to follow all safety procedures
to prevent workplace eye injuries.
Whereas March is recognized as Workplace Eye Wellness Month.
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of Workplace Eye Wellness
Month;
(2) recognizes the importance of healthy vision; and
(3) encourages employees to take precautions to avoid
workplace eye injuries.

1st Session
H. RES. 265
Supporting the goals and ideals of the Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in
Schools Initiative, a call to action to communities across the country
to demand equal educational opportunity, basic civil rights
protections, and freedom from erasure for all students, particularly
LGBTQI+ young people, in elementary and secondary schools.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 29, 2023
Mr. Takano (for himself and Ms. Lee of California) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Education
and the Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the goals and ideals of the Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in
Schools Initiative, a call to action to communities across the country
to demand equal educational opportunity, basic civil rights
protections, and freedom from erasure for all students, particularly
LGBTQI+ young people, in elementary and secondary schools.
Whereas young people, teachers, school staff, families, and communities must be
free of transphobia, homophobia, racism, sexism, and ableism in
elementary and secondary schools;
Whereas elementary and secondary schools must be safe and inclusive learning
environments that affirm LGBTQI+ young people, especially those who are
transgender, nonbinary, intersex, Black, Indigenous, people of color,
people with disabilities, and from all communities that experience
marginalization;
Whereas for over two decades, Congress has supported a resolution for a
``National Day of Silence'', and for a decade, Congress has supported a
resolution for ``No Name-Calling Week'';
Whereas advocates have designated 2023-2024 as a time for communities to carry
out the Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in Schools Initiative in support of
LGBTQI+ young people in schools, by building on the goals of the
``National Day of Silence'' and the ``No Name-Calling Week'' to create a
sustained call to action to demand equal educational opportunity, basic
civil rights protections, and freedom from erasure for all students;
Whereas LGBTQI+ young people frequently experience bias-based bullying and
harassment, discrimination, and punitive discipline that increases the
likelihood they will enter the school-to-prison pipeline;
Whereas over 200 anti-LGBTQI+ education bills are introduced each year in State
legislatures across the country, the majority of which specifically
target transgender and nonbinary young people, including--
(1) in Idaho, on March 30, 2020, where Governor Brad Little signed the
first bill into law barring transgender students from playing on the school
sports teams that correspond with their gender identity 17 days after the
COVID-19 pandemic was declared a national emergency;
(2) between 2021 and 2022, when 17 additional States enacted laws
prohibiting transgender students from playing alongside their peers on
school sports teams; and
(3) between 2021 and 2022, when 3 States enacted laws to prevent
transgender students from using the school bathroom or locker room that
corresponds with their gender identity;
Whereas the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network's 2021 National School
Climate Survey found that LGBTQI+ students who experienced LGBTQI+
discrimination at school in the past year, including being prevented
from using the restroom that aligns with the student's gender identity
and being barred from playing on the school sports team that aligns with
the student's gender identity, were nearly 3 times as likely to have
missed school in the past month, had lower grade point averages,
reported lower feelings of school belonging, and had higher levels of
depression compared to LGBTQI+ students who had not experienced LGBTQI+
discrimination;
Whereas LGBTQI+ young people are more likely than their non-LGBTQI+ peers to
experience bullying at school and mental health concerns, including
stress, anxiety, and depression;
Whereas nearly half of LGBTQI+ young people seriously considered suicide in the
last year, a trend that increases among Indigenous, Black, and
multiracial LGBTQI+ young people;
Whereas Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network's 2021 National School
Climate Survey found that, among LGBTQI+ students who said that they
were considering dropping out of school, 31.4 percent indicated that
they were doing so because of the hostile climate created by gendered
school policies and practices;
Whereas States are passing or attempting to pass legislation that erases or
censors LGBTQI+ people, history, and contributions from classroom
literature and curricula, including--
(1) in March 2022, in Florida, where Governor Ron DeSantis signed House
bill 1557 into law censoring instruction related to LGBTQI+ people,
commonly referred to as the ``Don't Say Gay or Trans'' law;
(2) in May 2021, in Arizona, where Governor Doug Ducey signed House
bill 2035, which would require parental consent for a child to learn about
topics such as the Supreme Court ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges that the
fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples; and
(3) in 2021, when Arkansas, Florida, Montana, and Tennessee enacted
laws that treat instruction related to LGBTQI+ people in history, science,
the arts, or any academic class as a sensitive topic that requires parental
notification and allows parents to opt their child out of such instruction;
Whereas these laws harm students and force parents to consider leaving their
homes, as demonstrated in a Williams Institute report, which found that
56 percent of LGBTQI+ parents of students in Florida considered moving
out of Florida and 16.5 percent have taken steps to move out of Florida
because of House bill 1557;
Whereas States have gone farther by specifically targeting transgender students
and their parents with laws that attack transgender students' mental
health counseling and gender-affirming care, including--
(1) in 2022, in Texas, where Governor Greg Abbott issued a directive to
the Department of Family and Protective Services to investigate the parents
of young people seeking gender-affirming care for child abuse, which
purported to require school professionals to report parents who are
supportive of their transgender child for investigation; and
(2) by early March 2023, when 34 States introduced over 135 bills that
prohibit or create barriers to the social affirmation of transgender and
nonbinary students, such as using a student's chosen name and pronouns,
regardless of the risk to students' safety, health, and well-being;
Whereas 85 percent of transgender and nonbinary young people say that recent
debates prompted by State legislation restricting the rights of
transgender people have negatively impacted their mental health;
Whereas every young person must have equal educational opportunity and freedom
from the fear that their basic civil and educational rights will be
taken away from them;
Whereas 94 percent of teachers say that schools should ensure that no students
feel unsafe, invisible, or unheard;
Whereas young people who develop in positive school climates, free of bullying,
harassment, and discrimination, report greater physical and
psychological safety, greater mental well-being, and improved
educational and life outcomes;
Whereas positive school transformation must recognize that safety is too low a
bar and that all communities deserve to be acknowledged and affirmed in
our schools;
Whereas students and parents, educators, and community members in Arizona,
Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Montana, Tennessee, Texas, and in all States
and territories of the United States are advocating for safe and
inclusive learning environments that affirm LGBTQI+ young people,
including those who are transgender, nonbinary, Black, Indigenous,
people of color, and people with disabilities; and
Whereas we must all demand the best possible future for all young people in
schools, particularly those who identify as LGBTQI+, without exception:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of the Rise Up for
LGBTQI+ Youth in Schools Initiative in demanding the best
possible future for all young people in schools, particularly
those who identify as LGBTQI+; and
(2) encourages each State, territory, and locality to
support the Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in Schools Initiative and
adopt laws and policies that prohibit bias-based victimization,
exclusion, and erasure.

1st Session
H. RES. 267
Finding that the Russian Federation's presence in the United Nations
Security Council violates the purposes and principles of the United
Nations.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 30, 2023
Mr. Cohen (for himself and Mr. Wilson of South Carolina) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Finding that the Russian Federation's presence in the United Nations
Security Council violates the purposes and principles of the United
Nations.
Whereas the Russian Federation has carried out an illegal, premeditated,
unprovoked, and brutal war against Ukraine;
Whereas the Russian Federation in its war against Ukraine has perpetrated
heinous atrocities against unarmed civilians, including pillage,
torture, rape, summary executions, the destruction of entire cities, and
other crimes, including crimes targeting women and children;
Whereas the Russian Federation in its war against Ukraine has repeatedly
threatened to use nuclear weapons;
Whereas the Russian Federation in its war against Ukraine has forcibly occupied
and taken deliberate actions that threaten to destroy civilian nuclear
power stations, facilities the destruction of which would place millions
of people in Ukraine and in other nations at risk;
Whereas the Russian Federation has carried out illegal so-called referendums in
Ukraine and adopted legislation purporting to annex regions,
notwithstanding that the overwhelming majority of nations unambiguously
recognize, and the Russian Federation itself had unambiguously
recognized, that those regions are sovereign territory of Ukraine;
Whereas the Russian Federation has indicated its intention to destroy Ukraine as
a nation and has used rhetoric calling for further illegal purported
annexations and violence against other nations;
Whereas the Russian Federation, under the Memorandum on Security Assurances in
Connection with Ukraine's Accession to the Treaty on the Non-
Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons signed at Budapest on December 7, 1994
(``Budapest Memorandum''), reaffirmed in accordance with the principles
of the Final Act of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe
its commitments ``to respect the independence and sovereignty and the
existing borders of Ukraine'' and ``to refrain from the threat or use of
force against the territorial integrity or political independence of
Ukraine'';
Whereas Ukraine, under the Budapest Memorandum in exchange for the Russian
Federation's commitments, voluntarily relinquished the nuclear weapons
in its territory and acceded to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of
Nuclear Weapons as a non-nuclear-weapon State;
Whereas the Russian Federation's flagrant violations of its commitments under
the Budapest Memorandum set a dangerous example, injurious to future
efforts to promote nuclear arms control and nonproliferation;
Whereas the Russian Federation, notwithstanding the commitment it made under the
Initiative on the Safe Transportation of Grain and Foodstuffs from
Ukrainian Ports adopted upon the proposal of the United Nations
Secretary-General on July 22, 2022, to enable the resumption of exports
of Ukrainian grain, other foodstuffs, and fertilizer through a safe
maritime humanitarian corridor, repeatedly threatens to obstruct that
corridor and the security of the world's food supply;
Whereas the purposes of the United Nations (``UN'') include--
(1) to maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to
take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of
threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression, and to
bring about by peaceful means adjustment or settlement of international
disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
(2) to develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for
the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to
take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace; and
(3) to achieve international cooperation in promoting and encouraging
respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without
distinction as to race, sex, language, or religion;
Whereas the principles of the UN include--
(1) respect for the sovereign equality of all UN Members;
(2) good faith in the fulfilment of all obligations under the Charter
of the United Nations (``UN Charter'');
(3) peaceful settlement of international disputes; and
(4) refraining from the threat or use of force against the territorial
integrity or political independence of any State;
Whereas Article 4 of the UN Charter opens the UN only to countries that are
peace-loving;
Whereas Article 6 of the UN Charter allows the UN upon two-thirds vote of the UN
General Assembly and recommendation of the UN Security Council to expel
a member that has persistently violated the principles of the UN
Charter;
Whereas international aggression is a fundamental violation of the purposes and
principles of the UN Charter;
Whereas the United Nations General Assembly (``UN General Assembly'') meeting in
Emergency Special Session has acknowledged by overwhelming majorities
that--
(1) the Russian Federation's conduct constitutes aggression against
Ukraine;
(2) the Russian Federation's aggression against Ukraine is the cause of
a dire humanitarian crisis on a scale not seen in Europe in decades; and
(3) the illegal so-called referendums organized by the Russian
Federation in regions of Ukraine have no validity under international law
and form no basis for any alteration of the status of any region of
Ukraine;
Whereas the Russian Federation has ignored its responsibility to observe and
implement determinations by UN organs and officials, including
determinations by--
(1) the UN General Assembly, which has demanded repeatedly that the
Russian Federation immediately, completely, and unconditionally withdraw
all of its military forces from the territory of Ukraine within Ukraine's
internationally recognized borders;
(2) the UN Human Rights Council, which has called upon the Russian
Federation to immediately end its human rights violations and abuses and
violations of international humanitarian law committed in the course of its
aggression against Ukraine;
(3) the International Court of Justice, which has ordered that the
Russian Federation shall immediately suspend all military operations
against Ukraine, including the military operations that the Russian
Federation commenced on February 24, 2022, and refrain from actions
violating the human rights of the Crimean Tatar and Ukrainian communities
in the Crimean region of Ukraine, which region the Russian Federation has
illegally occupied by force since 2014 and illegally purports to have
annexed;
(4) the President of the UN Security Council, who has condemned the
continuous violations of the earlier cease-fire regime under the Minsk
Agreements and has called on the Russian Federation to facilitate the work
of the Special Monitoring Mission of the Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) in Ukraine; and
(5) the UN Secretary-General, who has called on the Russian Federation
to stop its military offensive against Ukraine and who has declared that
Russia's illegal purported annexation of territory in Ukraine ``flouts the
Purposes and Principles of the United Nations'';
Whereas the Russian Federation's repeated threats to use nuclear weapons and
rhetoric about raising its nuclear alert levels are inconsistent with
and in flagrant disregard of the Joint Statement on Preventing Nuclear
War and Avoiding Arms Races that the Russian Federation, along with the
other four permanent members of the UN Security Council, adopted in
2022;
Whereas the Russian Federation has abused the power of the veto that it holds in
the UN Security Council under Article 23, paragraph 1, of the UN
Charter, including by exercising the veto in order to prevent the
Security Council from taking necessary actions and reaching appropriate
determinations in regard to the Russian Federation's aggression against
Ukraine;
Whereas the Russian Federation further has abused the procedures of the Security
Council, including--
(1) by attempting to prevent senior representatives of Ukraine from
addressing the Security Council;
(2) by exploiting the Security Council as a venue in which to make
patently false accusations, including false accusations that Ukraine has
committed genocide against Russians, that the President of Ukraine is a
Nazi, and that Ukraine is preparing a nuclear attack;
(3) by advancing a draft resolution that would attempt to portray
Ukraine as responsible for the humanitarian disaster resulting from the
Russian Federation's aggression, a draft resolution having no purpose
except to obstruct the orderly conduct of Security Council proceedings and
distract attention from the Russian Federation's aggression;
(4) by lodging repeated complaints in the Security Council under
Article VI of the Biological Weapons Convention (``BWC'') falsely accusing
Ukraine of hosting biological weapons programs involving birds, bats, and
mosquitoes and providing no evidence to support its complaints, while
ignoring statements by the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs that that
Office is unaware of any biological weapons programs in Ukraine, ignoring
that consultations with 89 countries convened under the BWC did not find
any BWC violations in Ukraine, and ignoring the damage that the Russian
Federation's baseless allegations have done to multilateral cooperation
under the BWC;
(5) by demanding that the Security Council convene in order to
entertain the Russian Federation's patently false and abusive claim that
the atrocities that the Russian Federation committed at Bucha in Ukraine,
which numbered among the worst atrocities up to that time in the Russian
Federation's aggression against Ukraine, were the result of a
``provocation'' by ``Ukrainian radicals'';
(6) by issuing false and groundless procedural complaints in the
Security Council, including false accusations against the President of the
Security Council that that Security Council officer had prevented the
Russian Federation from making the claim that atrocities at Bucha were
``provoked'', despite the clear and unambiguous indication in the verbatim
record that the President in fact had given the Russian Federation more
than one opportunity in which to make that claim notwithstanding its
falsity and the Russian Federation's abusive purpose in making it; and
(7) by demanding further Security Council meetings in order to continue
to abuse that UN organ by issuing from a permanent member's seat blatantly
false accusations, including accusations that it is Ukraine, not the
Russian Federation, that is responsible for the Russian Federation's
atrocities and aggression;
Whereas nations in international organizations, in light of the Russian
Federation's egregious violations of international law, have taken steps
to protect the integrity of those organizations and their procedures and
to hold the Russian Federation to account, including in--
(1) the UN General Assembly, which by Resolution ES-11/3 of April 7,
2022, suspended the Russian Federation from the UN Human Rights Council;
(2) the International Civil Aviation Organization, which on October 4,
2022, voted not to reelect the Russian Federation to that organization's
Governing Council;
(3) the Danube Commission, which by Decision of its 12th Extraordinary
Session, on March 17, 2022, declined to accept the credentials of the
Russian Federation and excluded those representatives from participation in
all meetings of the Danube Commission and its working bodies until
cessation of the Russian Federation's aggression against Ukraine;
(4) the Permanent Council of the Organization of American States, which
by Resolution CP/RES.1195 (2374/22) of April 21, 2022, suspended the
Russian Federation's status as a Permanent Observer of the Organization of
American States;
(5) the UN World Tourism Organization, which by Resolution of April 27,
2022, suspended the Russian Federation's membership in that organization;
(6) the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, which by
Decision of February 25, 2022, suspended the Russian Federation from its
rights of representation in the Council of Europe and by Decision of March
16, 2022, declared that the Russian Federation has ceased to be a member of
the Council of Europe; and
(7) the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, which by
Resolution 2463 (2022) of October 13, 2022, resolved that the Russian
Federation's threats to use nuclear weapons and threats to use civilian
nuclear power facilities as weapons are incompatible with the
responsibilities of a country holding a permanent seat on the UN Security
Council;
Whereas the Security Council is the principal organ of the UN having primary
responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security;
and
Whereas the Russian Federation, notwithstanding its war of aggression against
Ukraine, the heinous atrocities it has committed, its nuclear threats,
its threats to the world food supply, the further threats to
international peace and security it makes through baseless territorial
claims against Ukraine and other countries, its abuse of the rights and
privileges of permanent membership in the UN Security Council, and the
flagrant violations of the purposes and principles of the UN that these
actions of the Russian Federation entail, has continued to sit in the
seat of a permanent member of the Security Council under Article 23,
paragraph 1, of the UN Charter and to exercise other rights and
privileges in UN organs and specialized agencies: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) finds that the Russian Federation has repeatedly,
deliberately, and flagrantly violated the purposes and
principles of the United Nations;
(2) finds that the continued exercise of rights and
privileges by the Russian Federation in the Security Council of
the United Nations under United Nations Charter Article 23,
paragraph 1, further violates the purposes and principles of
the United Nations and is contrary to the interests of the
United States in the maintenance of international peace and
security;
(3) finds that the participation and membership of the
Russian Federation in other organs and specialized agencies of
the United Nations violates the purposes and principles of the
United Nations and is contrary to the interests of the United
States;
(4) urges the President of the United States--
(A) to direct the Department of State and other
relevant Federal departments and agencies to pursue all
appropriate steps with Allies, partners, and other
countries to limit, suspend, or terminate rights and
privileges that the Russian Federation exercises in the
Security Council of the United Nations under United
Nations Charter Article 23, paragraph 1; and
(B) to direct the Department of State and other
relevant Federal departments and agencies to pursue all
appropriate steps with Allies, partners, and other
countries to limit, suspend, or terminate the
participation or membership of the Russian Federation
in other organs and specialized agencies of the United
Nations; and
(5) supports the deployment by the United States of all
necessary diplomatic and other resources to ensure the success
of the steps that it herein urges the President to direct.

1st Session
H. RES. 268
Expressing strong opposition to the imposition of digital services
taxes by other countries that discriminate against United States
companies.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 30, 2023
Mr. Estes (for himself and Mr. Kildee) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Ways and Means, and
in addition to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, for a period to be
subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration
of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee
concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing strong opposition to the imposition of digital services
taxes by other countries that discriminate against United States
companies.
Whereas a digital services tax (DST) is a tax levied by a government on a
company that provides a digital service to a person or company of that
country;
Whereas companies that provide digital services need not be physically located
in the countries where the people that use the company's services
reside;
Whereas under international income tax and trade agreements, a country's taxing
rights over multinational companies' profits are based on a physical
presence in such country, rather than the mere sale or use of goods or
services in such country;
Whereas certain countries have developed DSTs that deviate from this
international income tax system that are discriminatory to United
States-based companies, and that threatens the success of United States
companies and workers and their competitiveness in international
markets;
Whereas many countries, including France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy,
Portugal, India, and others have already implemented DSTs or similar
taxes;
Whereas, on July 10, 2019, the United States Trade Representative initiated a
section 301 investigation for France regarding their application of DSTs
on American companies;
Whereas, on June 2, 2020, the United States Trade Representative (USTR)
initiated section 301 investigations for Austria, India, Italy, Spain,
Turkey, and the United Kingdom, regarding their application of DSTs on
American companies;
Whereas these investigations resulted in the findings that these DSTs are
``unreasonable or discriminatory and burdens or restricts U.S.
commerce'';
Whereas, pursuant to that investigation, the USTR instituted additional duties
on selected products from these countries;
Whereas the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has
hosted multilateral negotiations with 142 countries to propose a
framework for permanently removing and replacing DSTs and other harmful
measures on a multilateral basis, and that the United States Treasury is
participating in those negotiations;
Whereas, on October 8, 2021, as a result of the OECD Pillar One negotiations,
``all parties agreed to remove existing DSTs and other relevant similar
measures, and to coordinate the withdrawal of these taxes, and on
October 21, 2021, the United States, France, Italy, Spain, and the
United Kingdom on a transitional approach to those countries' DSTs prior
to entry into force of Pillar 1'';
Whereas pursuant to this framework, the USTR closed its section 301
investigations and removed additional duties imposed on these countries;
Whereas DSTs continue to be collected from United States companies in certain
jurisdictions;
Whereas unfortunately, other United States trading partners, such as Colombia
and Canada, have instituted or threatened DSTs outside of the OECD
framework, and potentially in violation of existing trade commitments;
Whereas some countries' efforts have moved beyond DSTs to ``significant economic
presence'' policies intended to target, among other things, income from
digital transactions and of nonresident digital economy businesses;
Whereas these policies, including DSTs, will discriminate against United States
companies and lead to unfair double taxation outside the bounds of
current international tax standards; and
Whereas the United States Government currently has many options to oppose DSTs,
including intensive bilateral engagement, withdrawal of trade preference
programs, World Trade Organization dispute settlement, or imposing
duties, fees, import restrictions, or taxes on the goods or services of
countries that unfairly target United States companies: Now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) is committed to free and fair trade between the United
States and other countries;
(2) agrees with the findings of the reports issued by the
United States Trade Representative that conclude that digital
services taxes discriminate against United States companies and
are in violation of existing international income tax and trade
agreements;
(3) supports the Office of the United States Trade
Representative resuming and expanding its investigations into
digital services taxes that were suspended as a result of the
October 2021 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and
Development framework agreement;
(4) calls on all other countries to cease and desist from
implementing any digital services tax, and to immediately stop
unfairly targeting United States companies;
(5) calls on the relevant United States Government agencies
to use all available methods and resources to protect United
States companies from the discriminatory effects of digital
services taxes; and
(6) supports Congress looking at additional tools to
address tax discrimination among United States trading
partners, including tax countermeasures.

_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing that it is the duty of the Federal Government to develop
and implement a Transgender Bill of Rights to protect and codify the
rights of transgender and nonbinary people under the law and ensure
their access to medical care, shelter, safety, and economic security.
Whereas an estimated 1,600,000 transgender adults live in the United States;
Whereas title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 requires equal treatment under
the law regardless of sex;
Whereas the Supreme Court affirmed in Bostock v. Clayton County that Federal
protection against discrimination on the basis of sex includes
protection from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and
gender identity;
Whereas, despite these protections, transgender people still experience
discrimination in medical care, employment, housing, education, lending,
and other basic necessities;
Whereas State lawmakers introduced more than 300 bills attacking the rights of
LGBTQI+ people and transgender people in particular in the first 6 weeks
of 2023;
Whereas the right of transgender and nonbinary people to seek lifesaving,
gender-affirming care is under threat across the Nation;
Whereas the provision of best-practice age-appropriate gender-affirming health
care is endorsed by--
(1) the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry;
(2) the American Academy of Family Physicians;
(3) the American Academy of Nursing;
(4) the American Academy of Pediatrics;
(5) the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists;
(6) the American College of Physicians;
(7) the American Counseling Association;
(8) the American Heart Association;
(9) the American Medical Association;
(10) the American Nurses Association;
(11) the American Osteopathic Association;
(12) the American Psychiatric Association;
(13) the American Psychological Association;
(14) the American Public Health Association;
(15) the American Society of Plastic Surgeons;
(16) the Endocrine Society;
(17) the National Association of Nurse Practitioners in Women's Health;
(18) the Pediatric Endocrine Society;
(19) the Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine;
(20) the World Medical Association; and
(21) the World Professional Association for Transgender Health;
Whereas transgender and nonbinary people face significant barriers to legal
recognition of their truest selves on government documentation and
identification;
Whereas transgender and nonbinary people experience disproportionately high
rates of poverty, homelessness, violence, and suicide;
Whereas transgender and nonbinary people detained in jails, prisons, and
immigration detention centers are especially vulnerable to violence and
abuse and are often deprived of gender-affirming resources and health
care;
Whereas transgender people make unique, valuable contributions to American
society and culture worth honoring and celebrating;
Whereas transgender people have existed throughout history across the globe,
demonstrating resilience, bravery, and authenticity; and
Whereas transgender people are parents, siblings, children, chosen family, and
friends deserving of human dignity and support: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the Federal Government has a duty to protect the rights
of transgender and nonbinary people as outlined in this
Transgender Bill of Rights by--
(A) ensuring transgender and nonbinary people have
equal access to services and public accommodations that
align with their gender identity by--
(i) amending the Civil Rights Act of 1964
to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex,
including gender identity and sex
characteristics in public accommodations and
federally funded programs and activities;
(ii) expanding the definition of public
accommodation to address the full range of
places and services that members of the general
public utilize;
(iii) explicitly clarifying that it is
illegal to discriminate on the basis of sex,
including gender identity or sex
characteristics in public accommodations and
services on religious grounds; and
(iv) amending Federal education laws to
ensure that they protect students from
discrimination based on sex, including gender
identity and sex characteristics, and guarantee
students' right to--
(I) participate in sports on teams
and in programs that best align with
their gender identity;
(II) use school facilities that
best align with their gender identity;
(III) have their authentic identity
respected in the classroom; and
(IV) have access to curriculum and
books that accurately portray the
substantive history and identity of
LGBTQ+ people and Black, Indigenous,
and people of color;
(B) recognizing the right to bodily autonomy and
ethical health care for transgender and nonbinary
people by--
(i) strengthening, implementing, and
enforcing prohibitions on discrimination in the
provision of health care on the basis of sex,
including on the basis of actual or perceived
gender identity or sex characteristics;
(ii) eliminating unnecessary governmental
restrictions on the provision of, and access
to, gender-affirming medical care and
counseling for transgender and nonbinary adults
and youth;
(iii) ensuring that health care providers
following standards of care for transgender and
nonbinary people are not targeted for criminal
or civil penalties or professional discipline;
(iv) protecting children from forceful
removal from supportive homes;
(v) protecting providers of gender-
affirming care, reproductive health care, and
abortion health care from threats and acts of
violence related to their work;
(vi) expanding access to providers with
competency serving transgender and nonbinary
patients, including by recruiting and training
more health care providers to provide
appropriate care;
(vii) expanding telehealth access to
provide patients in rural and other underserved
locations better access to health care
services;
(viii) codifying Roe v. Wade, guaranteeing
the right to abortion, and codifying the right
to reproductive health care such as
contraceptives and assistive reproductive
technology for everyone, including transgender
and nonbinary people; and
(ix) banning the use of forced surgery that
violates medical ethics and human rights on
intersex children and infants;
(C) ensuring transgender and nonbinary people can
care for themselves and their families by fully
codifying the Bostock decision by--
(i) eliminating hiring and employment
discrimination and workforce exclusion by
amending title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964 to explicitly clarify that employers may
not discriminate on the basis of actual or
perceived gender identity or sex
characteristics;
(ii) amending the Fair Housing Act to
explicitly clarify that it prohibits all forms
of sex discrimination, including on the basis
of gender identity or sex characteristics; and
(iii) amending the Equal Credit Opportunity
Act to explicitly clarify that it prohibits all
forms of sex discrimination, including on the
basis of gender identity or sex
characteristics;
(D) providing accessible avenues for legal
recognition of transgender and nonbinary identities and
guaranteeing full participation in civil life by--
(i) eliminating Federal gender
identification requirements on government
documents that are unnecessary to determine the
identity of the holder or otherwise irrelevant
to the purpose of the document;
(ii) eliminating burdensome barriers to
updating sex and names on passports, Social
Security cards, and other forms of Federal
Government identification and records,
permitting, where possible, changes on self-
attestation alone;
(iii) requiring that an ``X'' marker be
available on Federal Government identification
and records that still require gender;
(iv) requiring States to permit voters to
update their name and gender on their voter
registration and vote on the same day of
Federal elections; and
(v) making explicit that existing Federal
statutes prohibiting sex discrimination in jury
service also prohibit discrimination based on
gender identity and sex characteristics;
(E) strengthening the safety of transgender and
nonbinary people by--
(i) investing in community services to
prevent intimate partner, family, and community
violence against transgender and nonbinary
people and expand services for transgender and
nonbinary survivors;
(ii) investing in mental health services
and suicide prevention programs designed for
transgender and nonbinary people;
(iii) banning fraudulent and harmful so-
called ``conversion therapy'' practices;
(iv) ensuring robust regulations and
procedures that affirm that claims for
immigration relief or asylum based on
persecution related to gender, sexual
orientation, gender identity, and sex
characteristics are protected grounds in the
context of asylum adjudications; and
(v) exploring policies and practices that
would improve the safety of transgender and
nonbinary individuals incarcerated in jails,
prisons, and immigration detention facilities
and ensure that those populations have access
to gender-affirming care, appropriate services,
and commissary items; and
(F) actively enforcing the civil rights of
transgender and nonbinary people by all government
agencies including by--
(i) requiring the Attorney General to
designate a liaison within the Civil Rights
Division of the Department of Justice dedicated
to advising on and overseeing enforcement of
the civil rights of transgender and nonbinary
people; and
(ii) appropriating the funds necessary to
fully staff and support the enforcement of
these rights across agencies;
(2) the actions listed above are only the first steps
toward transgender equality;
(3) to carry out the goals above, Federal agencies must
collect gender identity and sex characteristics information on
a voluntary, confidential basis solely for equity and public
health purposes in key Federal surveys;
(4) the Federal Government must make an ongoing commitment
to the rights of transgender and nonbinary people; and
(5) policies concerning transgender rights must be led and
informed by transgender communities, in particular Black and
Indigenous women who face heightened risk of violence, poverty,
discrimination, and other harm due to their intersecting
identities.

following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the
Judiciary
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Condemning attacks on health care facilities, health care personnel,
and patients.
Whereas workplace violence ranges from threats and verbal abuse to physical
assaults and homicide;
Whereas, for decades, health care personnel for women and people who access
reproductive health care services have been subjected to intimidation,
threats, and violence;
Whereas, between 1977 and 2015--
(1) nearly 7,000 violent acts were reported against providers at health
centers for women, including bombings, arsons, death threats, kidnappings,
and assaults; and
(2) more than 190,000 acts of disruption, including bomb threats and
harassing calls, were reported;
Whereas, between 1993 and 2015, there were 11 murders, numerous attempted
murders, 42 bombings, and 186 arsons targeted at individuals and
facilities associated with care provided at health centers for women;
Whereas, between 1993 and 2015, the 11 victims of anti-choice violence include
Dr. David Gunn of Pensacola, Florida, in 1993; Dr. John Bayard Britton
and a volunteer, James Barrett, both of Pensacola, Florida, in 1994;
clinic receptionists Shannon Lowney and Leanne Nichols, both of
Brookline, Massachusetts, in 1994; Dr. Barnett Slepian of Buffalo, New
York, in 1998; clinic security guard Robert Sanderson of Birmingham,
Alabama, in 1998; Dr. George Tiller of Wichita, Kansas, in 2009; and
police officer Garrett Swasey, Ke'Arre Stewart, and Jennifer Markovsky,
all of whom were lost during a violent attack at a Planned Parenthood
clinic in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 2015;
Whereas, in 2016, two defendants vandalized a Baltimore, Maryland, area abortion
clinic on two separate occasions, with one defendant pleading guilty and
the other convicted at trial of Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances
(FACE) Act violations;
Whereas, in 2017, a defendant sent several threatening emails to abortion
clinics located in Chicago, Illinois, and Hammond, Indiana, and the
defendant pled guilty to FACE Act and other Federal offenses;
Whereas, in 2018, a defendant directed a threatening social media post to
Planned Parenthood facilities and staff and defendant pled guilty to
Federal offenses, including a FACE Act charge;
Whereas, in 2019, a defendant was indicted for FACE Act violations and other
Federal offenses related to a 2015 shooting at a Planned Parenthood
facility in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where he shot at several
civilians and police officers, killing two civilians and one officer,
while injuring several others;
Whereas, in 2020, a defendant pled guilty to FACE Act related offenses in
connection with a bomb threat call the defendant made to a Jacksonville,
Florida, abortion clinic;
Whereas, in 2021, a defendant pled guilty to a FACE Act violation and other
State felony offenses for throwing a Molotov cocktail at a Fort Myers,
Florida, abortion clinic;
Whereas, in 2022, a defendant was indicted for FACE Act violations after he
assaulted a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, area Planned Parenthood clinic
escort twice on the same date, with one assault resulting in bodily
injury; and
Whereas extreme rhetoric continues to fuel a hate-filled climate that is
dangerous for individuals who provide or access comprehensive health
care services: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) condemns all acts of political violence;
(2) condemns attacks on health care facilities, health care
personnel, and patients;
(3) affirms that all people have the freedom to access
reproductive health care services and medical advice without
fear of violence, intimidation, or harassment; and
(4) calls upon the Biden administration to use all
appropriate authorities to uphold public safety, to protect
health care facilities, and safeguard health care personnel and
patients.

digital trade and the digital economy with like-minded countries as

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 30, 2023
Mr. LaHood (for himself, Ms. DelBene, Mr. Smith of Nebraska, and Mr.
Bera) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Ways and Means, and in addition to the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the
Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall
within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United
States should negotiate strong, inclusive, and forward-looking rules on
digital trade and the digital economy with like-minded countries as
part of its broader trade and economic strategy in order to ensure
American values of democracy, rule of law, freedom of speech, human and
worker rights, privacy, and a free and open internet are at the very
core of digital governance.
Whereas over half of the world's population, totaling more than 5,000,000,000
people, use the internet;
Whereas the ``digital economy'' encompasses the economic and social activity
from billions of online connections among people, businesses, devices,
and data as a result of the internet, mobile technology, and the
internet of things;
Whereas the United States Bureau of Economic Analysis found that the digital
economy contributed 10.2 percent of United States gross domestic product
and supported 7,800,000 American jobs in 2020;
Whereas the tech-commerce ecosystem added 1,400,000 jobs between 2017 and 2021,
and served as the main job-creating sector in 40 States;
Whereas American jobs supported by the digital economy have sustained annual
wage growth at a rate of 5.9 percent since 2010, as compared to a 4.2-
percent increase for all jobs;
Whereas, in 2020, United States exports of digital services surpassed
$520,000,000,000, accounting for more than half of all United States
services exports and generating a United States digital services trade
surplus of $214,000,000,000;
Whereas digital trade bolsters the digital economy by enabling the sale of goods
on the internet and the supply of online services across borders, and
depends on the free flow of data across borders to promote commerce,
manufacturing, and innovation;
Whereas digital trade has become increasingly vital to American workers and
businesses of all sizes, including the countless small- and medium-sized
enterprises that use digital technology, data flows, and e-commerce to
export goods and services across the world;
Whereas digital trade has advanced entrepreneurship opportunities for women,
people of color, and individuals from otherwise underrepresented
backgrounds, and enabled the formation of innovative startups;
Whereas international supply chains are becoming increasingly digitized and data
driven, and businesses in a variety of industries, such as construction,
health care, transportation, and aerospace, invested heavily in digital
supply chain technologies in 2020;
Whereas United States Trade Representative Katherine Tai said that ``there is no
bright line separating digital trade from the digital economy--or the
traditional economy for that matter. Nearly every aspect of our economy
has been digitized to some degree.'';
Whereas industries outside of the traditional technology sector, such as
manufacturing and agriculture, are integrating digital technology into
their businesses in order to increase efficiency, improve safety, reach
new customers, and remain globally competitive;
Whereas the increasing reliance on digital technologies has modernized legacy
processes, accelerated workflows, increased access to information and
services, and strengthened security in a variety of industries, leading
to better health, environmental, and safety outcomes;
Whereas the coronavirus pandemic has led to increased uptake and reliance on
digital technologies, data flows, and e-commerce;
Whereas 90 percent of United States adults say that the internet has been
essential or important for them personally during the coronavirus
outbreak;
Whereas American families, workers, and business owners have seen how vital
access to the internet has been to daily life, as work, education,
medicine, and communication with family and friends have shifted
increasingly online;
Whereas many individuals and families, especially in rural and Tribal
communities, struggle to participate in the digital economy due to lack
of access to a reliable and affordable internet connection;
Whereas new developments in technology must be deployed with consideration to
the unique access challenges of rural, urban, underserved, and
vulnerable communities;
Whereas digital trade has the power to help level the playing field and uplift
those in traditionally unrepresented or underrepresented communities;
Whereas countries have negotiated international rules governing digital trade in
various bilateral and plurilateral agreements, but those rules remain
fragmented, and no multilateral agreement on digital trade exists within
the World Trade Organization;
Whereas a patchwork of plurilateral digital trade agreements in the Indo-Pacific
region have emerged, creating a set of rules on digital governance to
which the United States is not a party;
Whereas Congress recognizes the need for agreements on digital trade, as
indicated by its support for a robust digital trade chapter in the
United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement;
Whereas other countries are operating under their own digital rules, some of
which are contrary to democratic values shared by the United States and
many of its allies and partners;
Whereas these countries are attempting to advance their own digital rules on a
global scale;
Whereas certain practices, such as overly restrictive data localization
requirements and limitations on cross border data flows that do not
achieve legitimate public policy objectives, intellectual property
rights infringement, policies which make market access contingent on
forced technology transfers or voluntary transfers subject to coercive
terms, web filtering, economic espionage, cybercrime exposure, and
state-directed theft of trade secrets, are just some examples of the
plethora of nontariff barriers to digital trade that have emerged around
the globe;
Whereas certain countries are pursuing or have implemented digital policies that
unfairly discriminate against innovative United States technology
companies and American workers that create and deliver digital products
and services;
Whereas the People's Republic of China (PRC) is currently advancing a model for
digital governance and the digital economy domestically and abroad
through its Digital Silk Road Initiative that permits censorship,
surveillance, human and worker rights abuses, forced technology
transfers, and data flow restrictions at the expense of human and worker
rights, privacy, the free flow of data, and an open internet;
Whereas the Department of State's 2020 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices
highlighted significant human rights issues committed by the PRC in the
digital realm, including ``arbitrary interference with privacy;
pervasive and intrusive technical surveillance and monitoring; serious
restrictions on free expression, the press, and the internet, including
physical attacks on and criminal prosecution of journalists, lawyers,
writers, bloggers, dissidents, petitioners, and others as well as their
family members, and censorship and site blocking'';
Whereas the United States discourages digital authoritarianism, including
practices that undermine human and worker rights and result in other
social and economic coercion;
Whereas United States allies and trading partners in the Indo-Pacific region
have urged the United States to deepen economic engagement in the region
by negotiating rules on digital trade and technology standards;
Whereas the digital economy has provided new opportunities for economic
development, entrepreneurship, and growth in developing countries around
the world;
Whereas negotiating strong digital trade principles and commitments with allies
and partners across the globe enables the United States to unite like-
minded economies around common standards and ensure that principles of
democracy, rule of law, freedom of speech, human and worker rights,
privacy, and a free and open internet are at the very core of digital
governance;
Whereas United States leadership and substantive engagement is necessary to
ensure that global digital rules reflect American values so that workers
are treated fairly, small businesses can compete and win in the global
economy, and consumers are guaranteed the right to privacy and security;
Whereas the United States supports rules that reduce digital trade barriers,
promote free expression and the free flow of information, enhance
privacy protections, protect sensitive information, defend human and
worker rights, prohibit forced technology transfer, and promote
digitally enabled commerce; and
Whereas the United States supports efforts to cooperate with allies and trading
partners to mitigate the risks of cyberattacks, address potentially
illegal or deceptive business activities online, promote financial
inclusion and digital workforce skills, and develop rules to govern the
use of artificial intelligence and other emerging and future
technologies: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives
that--
(1) the United States should negotiate strong, inclusive,
forward-looking, and enforceable rules on digital trade and the
digital economy with like-minded countries as part of its
broader trade and economic strategy to address digital barriers
and ensure American values of democracy, rule of law, freedom
of speech, human and worker rights, privacy, and a free and
open internet are at the very core of the digital world and
advanced technology;
(2) in doing so, the United States must--
(A) pursue digital trade rules that serve the best
interests of workers, consumers, and small- and medium-
sized enterprises;
(B) empower American workers;
(C) fuel wage growth;
(D) take actions that lead to materially positive
economic outcomes for all Americans;
(E) ensure that any future agreement prevents
against nondemocratic, coercive, or overly restrictive
policies that would harm the ability for a free and
open internet and e-commerce marketplace to continue to
grow and thrive;
(F) coordinate sufficient trade-related assistance
to ensure that developing countries can improve their
capacity and benefit from increased digital trade; and
(G) consult closely with all relevant stakeholders,
including workers, consumers, small- and medium-sized
enterprises, civil society groups, and human rights
advocates; and
(3) with respect to any negotiations of an agreement
facilitating digital trade, the United States Trade
Representative and other relevant Federal departments and
agencies must consult closely and on a timely basis with the
Committee on Ways and Means of the House of Representatives and
the Committee on Finance of the Senate about the substance of
such negotiations and the requisite legal authority to bind the
United States to any agreement, keep both committees fully
apprised of those negotiations, and provide to those
committees, including staff with appropriate security
clearances, adequate access to the text of the negotiating
proposal of the United States before tabling the proposal in
the negotiation.

1st Session
H. RES. 271
Recognizing the importance of beauty and wellness educators to the
United States and supporting the designation of March 30, 2023, as
``National Beauty and Wellness Education Appreciation Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 30, 2023
Mrs. McClain (for herself and Ms. Escobar) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Education and the
Workforce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Recognizing the importance of beauty and wellness educators to the
United States and supporting the designation of March 30, 2023, as
``National Beauty and Wellness Education Appreciation Day''.
Whereas postsecondary institutions specialized in preparing students to work in
licensed occupations in the Nation's beauty and wellness industry,
including as cosmetologists, barbers, estheticians, nail technicians,
and massage therapists, are essential to meeting the growing demand for
personal care services and the employment needs of businesses that
provide personal care services;
Whereas the beauty and wellness industry in the United States, including salon
and spa businesses, is an important service sector with an economic
impact of over $37,000,000,000 in wages and $100,000,000,000 in goods
and services sales, and employment of more than 2,300,000 workers
annually;
Whereas, based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook,
the demand for employment of--
(1) barbering, hair, and cosmetology specialists is projected to grow
11 percent from 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all
occupations reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics;
(2) skin care specialists (estheticians) is projected to grow 17
percent from 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all occupations
reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics;
(3) manicure and pedicure specialists is projected to grow 22 percent
from 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all occupations
reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics; and
(4) massage therapists is projected to grow 20 percent from 2021 to
2031, much faster than the average for all occupations reported by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics;
Whereas most States require cosmetologists, barbers, hairstylists, skin care
specialists, nail technicians, and massage therapists to complete a
program offered by a State-licensed postsecondary institution to educate
students for the requirements of the occupation based on State-mandated
curriculum; and
Whereas without proper education in State-mandated curriculum, including health
and safety requirements and applied technical abilities, individuals
seeking to enter these in-demand occupations would be unable to acquire
the knowledge and proficiency required to successfully pass the required
licensing exam and enter the workforce: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of ``National Beauty and
Wellness Education Appreciation Day'';
(2) recognizes the valuable contributions of beauty and
wellness educators in the United States in preparing graduates
for the expectations of their future employers; and
(3) commends the important role that graduates of these
institutions serve as working professionals to meet the growing
demand for personal and self-care services that promote
physical and mental well-being.

H. RES. 272
Calling on the Government of the Russian Federation to immediately
release United States citizen Paul Whelan.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 30, 2023
Ms. Stevens (for herself, Mr. Walberg, Mr. Moolenaar, Mrs. McClain,
Mrs. Dingell, Ms. Tlaib, Mr. Kildee, Mr. Thanedar, Ms. Slotkin, Mr.
Bergman, Ms. Scholten, Mr. Huizenga, and Mr. James) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Calling on the Government of the Russian Federation to immediately
release United States citizen Paul Whelan.
Whereas United States citizen Paul Whelan is a resident of Novi, Michigan, and a
veteran of the Marine Corps;
Whereas, on December 22, 2018, Paul Whelan traveled to Moscow, Russia, for the
wedding of a personal friend;
Whereas, on December 28, 2018, the Federal Security Service of the Russian
Federation arrested Paul Whelan at the Metropol Hotel in Moscow and
charged him with espionage;
Whereas the Federal Security Service has never provided any evidence of supposed
wrongdoing with respect to Paul Whelan;
Whereas Paul Whelan was imprisoned in Lefortovo Prison and was held in pretrial
detention at the prison for more than 19 months after his arrest;
Whereas a Moscow court extended Paul Whelan's pretrial detention multiple times
without publicly presenting justification or evidence of wrongdoing;
Whereas even Vladimir Zherebenkov, the lawyer appointed by the Federal Security
Service to represent Paul Whelan, said on May 24, 2019, ``[The Federal
Security Service] always roll[s] out what they have, but in this case,
we've seen nothing concrete against Whelan in five months. That means
there is nothing.'';
Whereas then-United States Ambassador to the Russian Federation, Jon Huntsman,
responded on April 12, 2019, to a question about the detention of Paul
Whelan, ``If the Russians have evidence, they should bring it forward.
We have seen nothing. If there was a case, I think the evidence would
have been brought forward by now.'';
Whereas then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met with Russian Foreign Minister
Sergey Lavrov on May 14, 2019, and urged him to ensure United States
citizens are not unjustly held abroad;
Whereas the Kremlin has refused to provide Paul Whelan with full access to his
lawyer, and the so-called evidence against Paul Whelan and any evidence
he has seen is in Russian, a language Whelan does not read or speak;
Whereas the Lefortovo pretrial detention facility and the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs refused to provide medical treatment for Paul Whelan's medical
condition, despite being aware of its worsening state, resulting in
emergency surgery on May 29, 2020;
Whereas Paul Whelan was wrongfully convicted on June 15, 2020, and sentenced to
16 years in a Russian labor camp by a three-judge panel, in a trial
witnessed by United States Ambassador John Sullivan, who referred to the
trial as ``a mockery of justice'' due to the denial of a fair trial and
the exclusion of defense witnesses;
Whereas, in August 2020, on an unknown day, Paul Whelan was secretly transferred
to camp IK-17, a penal labor camp in Mordovia, Russia, where he is
forced to work 6 days a week in a garment factory;
Whereas Ambassador John Sullivan, while visiting Paul Whelan at the labor camp
in Mordovia, stated that ``Russian authorities . . . have never shown
the world evidence of his guilt'', and reiterated his call for the
Russian authorities to correct this injustice and release Paul Whelan;
Whereas Secretary of State Antony Blinken spoke with Russian Foreign Minister
Sergei Lavrov on February 4, 2021, and urged him to release United
States citizens detained in the Russian Federation, including Paul
Whelan and Trevor Reed, so that they are able to return home to their
families in the United States;
Whereas, in August 2021, Whelan was released from a month-long stay in a
solitary confinement at the IK-17 penal colony in the region of
Mordovia;
Whereas, on April 27, 2022, the House of Representatives unanimously passed a
bipartisan resolution calling for the release of Whelan;
Whereas Secretary Blinken ``pressed'' the Kremlin to accept an offer by the
United States that would bring Paul Whelan and Brittney Griner home in
July 2022;
Whereas, in November 2022, Paul Whelan was unable to contact his family for more
than a week, during which time Russian authorities claimed Whelan had
been sent to the hospital;
Whereas Russian authorities refused to release Paul Whelan as part of the
prisoner exchange in December 2022;
Whereas Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated, ``His detention remains
unacceptable, and we continue to press for his immediate release at
every opportunity''; and
Whereas President Biden stated that his administration had ``not forgotten about
Paul Whelan,'' and promised to ``keep negotiating in good faith for his
release'': Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) implores the Government of the Russian Federation to
immediately release Paul Whelan from imprisonment;
(2) implores the Government of the Russian Federation to
comply with international treaty obligations and provide
unrestricted consular access to Paul Whelan while he remains
imprisoned in the Russian Federation;
(3) calls on the Government of the Russian Federation to
provide Paul Whelan and all other political prisoners their
constitutionally afforded due process rights and universally
recognized human rights;
(4) expresses the sincere thanks of the United States to
the Governments of Canada, Ireland, and the United Kingdom for
their support in attempting to release Paul Whelan; and
(5) expresses sympathy to the family of Paul Whelan for
this travesty to justice and personal hardship and expresses
hope that their ordeal can soon be brought to a just end.

resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and
Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the goals and ideals of National Women's History Month.
Whereas the purpose of National Women's History Month is to increase awareness
and knowledge of women's involvement in history;
Whereas the first women's rights convention was held in 1848 in Seneca Falls,
New York, and launched the women's suffrage movement;
Whereas key women's suffrage leaders, such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton, attended
the Seneca Falls Convention, inspiring future women's suffrage leaders,
including Susan B. Anthony;
Whereas, in 1869, Wyoming was the first State to grant women the right to vote;
Whereas, in 1872, Susan B. Anthony was arrested for illegally voting and was
fined $100, angering countless Americans and bringing national attention
to the women's suffrage movement;
Whereas, in 1913, Harriet Tubman was buried with military honors at Fort Hill
Cemetery in Auburn, New York, after a valiant life spent fighting to end
slavery, aiding freedmen, and advocating for women's suffrage with
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony;
Whereas, in 1913, antilynching crusader and women's suffrage leader, Ida B.
Wells, Black women from Howard University, and many other notable Black
women joined the 1913 Women's Suffrage Parade to ensure that the
leadership and work for women's suffrage by Black women would be
recognized;
Whereas, in 1916, Representative Jeanette Rankin of Montana was the first woman
elected to the House of Representatives, four years before women had the
right to vote nationally;
Whereas after over 70 years of advocacy, women were granted the right to vote in
1920 with the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution;
Whereas, in 1922, Rebecca Felton of Georgia was the first woman appointed to
serve in the Senate;
Whereas, in 1925, Nellie Tayloe Ross of Wyoming was elected as the first woman
to serve as Governor of a State;
Whereas, in 1932, Hattie Caraway of Arkansas was the first woman elected to the
Senate;
Whereas, in 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt nominated the first female
Cabinet Secretary, Francis Perkins, who served as Secretary of Labor;
Whereas, in 1946, Felicita Mendez fought against discrimination and segregation
in the California public education system, winning the landmark case
Mendez, et al. v. Westminster School District of Orange County, which
paved the way for the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka decision in
1954;
Whereas, as recently as the 1970s, women's history was rarely included in the
kindergarten through grade 12 curriculum and was not part of public
awareness;
Whereas the Education Task Force of the Sonoma County Commission on the Status
of Women initiated a ``Women's History Week'' celebration in 1978
centered around International Women's History Day, which is celebrated
on March 8;
Whereas, in 1980, the National Women's History Project (known as the National
Women's History Alliance) was founded in Sonoma County, California, to
broadcast women's historical achievements;
Whereas, in 1981, responding to the growing popularity of women's history
celebrations, Congress passed a resolution making Women's History Week a
national observance;
Whereas, during this time, thousands of schools and communities joined in the
commemoration of National Women's History Week, with support and
encouragement from Governors, city councils, school boards, State
legislatures, and Congress;
Whereas, in 1987, Congress was petitioned to expand the national celebration to
include the entire month of March;
Whereas educators, workplace program planners, parents, and community
organizations, in thousands of communities in the United States, have
turned National Women's History Month into a major local learning
experience and celebration;
Whereas the popularity of women's history celebrations has sparked a new
interest in uncovering the important history of women's suffrage and the
fight for equal rights;
Whereas, in 1998, the President's Commission on the Celebration of Women in
American History was established to consider how best to acknowledge and
celebrate the roles and accomplishments of women in United States
history;
Whereas the National Women's History Museum was founded in 1996 as an
institution dedicated to preserving, interpreting, and celebrating the
diverse historic contributions of women, and integrating this rich
heritage fully into the Nation's teachings and history books;
Whereas the House of Representatives recognizes March 2023 as National Women's
History Month; and
Whereas the theme of National Women's History Month 2023 is ``Celebrating Women
Who Tell Our Stories'': Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the goals and ideals of National Women's
History Month; and
(2) recognizes and honors the women and organizations in
the United States that have fought for, and continue to
promote, the teaching of women's history and the women's
suffrage movement.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 274
Calling on major United States companies still operating in the Russian
Federation to reconsider their continued presence given Russia's full-
scale invasion of Ukraine.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
April 3, 2023
Mr. Keating (for himself, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Ms. Kaptur, and Mr. Quigley)
submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee
on Foreign Affairs
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Calling on major United States companies still operating in the Russian
Federation to reconsider their continued presence given Russia's full-
scale invasion of Ukraine.
Whereas, on February 24, 2022, the Government of the Russian Federation, led by
Vladimir Putin, launched an expanded invasion of Ukraine;
Whereas, on February 18, 2023, Secretary of State Antony Blinken released a
statement stating that, ``based on a careful analysis of the law and
available facts, I have determined that members of Russia's forces and
other Russian officials have committed crimes against humanity in
Ukraine'';
Whereas, on February 18, 2023, while attending the Munich Security Conference,
Vice President Kamala Harris stated that the United States has formally
determined that members of Russia's forces and other Russian officials
have committed crimes against humanity in Ukraine;
Whereas, while visiting Kyiv in February 2023, President Biden said, ``The cost
that Ukraine has had to bear has been extraordinarily high, and the
sacrifices have been far too great'', while underscoring that, ``the
Americans stand with you, and the world stands with you'';
Whereas the United States, in tandem with allies and partners, has imposed
unprecedented and expansive sanctions against Russia resulting in swift
and severe economic costs;
Whereas, on May 3, 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a Sample
Letter to Companies Regarding Disclosures Pertaining to Russia's
Invasion of Ukraine and Related Supply Chain Issues based on the
potential direct and indirect material impacts of the invasion on
companies with business operations or relationships in Russia, Belarus,
or Ukraine;
Whereas Article 9 of Russian Federal Law No. 31-FZ, amended in September 2022,
obliges all companies present in Russia to contribute to a ``partial
mobilization'' in support of the war effort by facilitating the
conscription of eligible staff and providing material support upon
demand of the Russian military;
Whereas, on December 21, 2022, during a visit by Ukrainian President Volodymyr
Zelenskyy to Washington, DC, President Biden reaffirmed efforts to hold
Russia accountable for its war crimes in Ukraine;
Whereas, as of March 20, 2023, according to the United Nations Office of the
High Commissioner for Human Rights, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has
caused at least 22,209 civilian casualties, with 8,317 killed and 13,892
injured, as well as forcibly displaced more than 13,000,000 Ukrainians
with estimates likely severely undercounting the actual toll;
Whereas, on March 16, 2022, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy urged that ``All
American companies must leave Russia . . . leave their market
immediately, because it is flooded with [Ukrainian] blood'';
Whereas in the same speech, President Zelenskyy called on Congress to lead by
pressuring companies ``who finance the Russian military machine'' and
conduct ``business in Russia'' and to ``make sure that the Russians do
not receive a single penny that they use to destroy people in Ukraine'';
Whereas a team at the Yale School of Management has compiled a list of over
1,000 major foreign companies that have curtailed their operations in
Russia since February 24, 2022;
Whereas, according to the same Yale database of major foreign companies, 27
American companies are ``defying demands for exit or reduction of
activities'' and continue to operate in Russia despite the horrific
crimes taking place in Ukraine;
Whereas, according to the same Yale database, 47 American companies are
``holding off new investments/development'' but are continuing
substantive business inside Russia;
Whereas in testimony before the House Financial Services Subcommittee on
Investor Protection, Entrepreneurship, and Capital Markets on November
15, 2022, it was noted that ``international sanctions and voluntary
business retreats have exerted a devastating effect over Russia's
economy'';
Whereas, by refusing to reduce, cease, or withdraw operations in Russia, these
companies contribute to undermining efforts undertaken by the United
States and its allies that are intended to deter further Russian
aggression;
Whereas a number of United States and multinational companies that do business
in Russia do not provide lifesaving or health-related goods and services
to the Russian people and contribute to Putin's ability to wage war and
commit war crimes in Ukraine by providing revenue for the Russian
Government; and
Whereas individuals around the world have chosen to boycott certain companies
that continue to operate in Russia and provide financial benefits to the
Putin regime: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) calls on major United States companies still operating
in the Russian Federation to reconsider their continued
presence given Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine;
(2) supports and encourages Americans who choose to
exercise their free speech rights by boycotting companies that
do not provide lifesaving or health-related goods and services
to the Russian people yet continue to operate in Russia;
(3) condemns companies that continue to operate in Russia
and provide financial benefits to the Putin regime that enable
his ability to continue waging war in Ukraine;
(4) encourages American companies who provide goods and
services to democracy activists in Russia to create specific
programs to continue to make those goods and services available
to support democracy-promotion initiatives;
(5) commends companies that have already suspended
operations in or withdrawn from markets in Russia in response
to the Putin regime's unlawful invasion of Ukraine; and
(6) calls on the Department of State to issue a business
advisory to inform individuals, businesses, financial
institutions, and other persons of the heightened risks
associated with conducting business in Russia, particularly
business activity that could benefit the Putin regime, and
include a list of the types of risks associated with continued
business, such as the need to conduct heightened due diligence,
and particularly at-risk business partners including Russian
state agencies, State-owned and affiliated businesses, and
oligarchs.

1st Session
H. RES. 275
Supporting the designation of Vaisakhi, April 14 of each year, as
``National Sikh Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
April 3, 2023
Ms. Scanlon (for herself, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Ms. Schakowsky, Mr. Tonko,
Ms. Lofgren, Mr. Pallone, and Mr. Valadao) submitted the following
resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and
Accountability
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Supporting the designation of Vaisakhi, April 14 of each year, as
``National Sikh Day''.
Whereas the United States is enriched by the diversity of its residents, who
have cultivated a climate of social tolerance and intellectual pluralism
that has sustained the Nation throughout its history;
Whereas the Sikh community, which originated in Punjab, India, and began
immigrating into the United States over 100 years ago, has played an
important role in developing the United States;
Whereas Sikhism is the world's fifth-largest religion with nearly 30,000,000
adherents, roughly 1,000,000 of whom call the United States home;
Whereas, founded by Guru Nanak in the Punjab region of India during the 15th
century, the Sikh spiritual tradition is rooted in the belief that every
person, regardless of race, gender, sex, or creed, is equal before God;
Whereas believing that every person shares a connection through the oneness of
God, the Sikh community emerged as a force for social justice by
encouraging female participation in religious services and initiating
interfaith efforts to combat oppression and injustice;
Whereas the Sikh religion's central principles of truthful living, service to
humanity, and devotion to God also inspire its believers to create
inclusive communities where all are respected;
Whereas through leading charitable events, the Sikh community embodies the sense
of public service that underlies the founding principles of the United
States;
Whereas the people of the United States feel obliged to honor the Sikh
community's important role in supporting and enriching the social fabric
of the Nation;
Whereas Sikhs celebrate Vaisakhi on the first day of the month of Vaisakh in the
Sikh calendar, which typically falls on April 14;
Whereas Vaisakhi is a special occasion in which Sikhs remember the founding in
1699 of the Order of Khalsa, a fellowship of devout saint-soldier Sikhs,
by the 10th Sikh Guru to fight tyranny and oppression, which played an
important role in shaping the religion's history and identity; and
Whereas it is altogether fitting and proper to celebrate the day of Vaisakhi
alongside Sikhs throughout the world and to honor the lasting
contributions made by the Sikh community to the United States: Now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the
designation of ``National Sikh Day'' to honor and celebrate the
important role played by the Sikh community in strengthening and
inspiring the people of the United States.

118th CONGRESS
1st Session
H. RES. 276
Expressing support for the designation of April 5, 2023, as ``Barth
Syndrome Awareness Day''.
_______________________________________________________________________
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
April 3, 2023
Mr. Tonko (for himself, Mr. Norman, and Mr. Bilirakis) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and
Commerce
_______________________________________________________________________
RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of April 5, 2023, as ``Barth
Syndrome Awareness Day''.
Whereas Barth syndrome is a rare, life-threatening, genetic disorder which
primarily affects males;
Whereas Barth syndrome is caused by a mutation in the tafazzin gene (TAFAZZIN,
also called G4.5), resulting in an inborn error of phospholipid
metabolism, affecting many systems of the body;
Whereas Barth syndrome is a multisystem disorder with characteristics including
abnormalities of heart and skeletal muscle, low levels of certain white
blood cells called neutrophils that help to fight bacterial infections,
and delays in growth;
Whereas with probably fewer than 10 new Barth infants identified each year in
the United States, the incidence of Barth syndrome is likely only 1 in
every 300,000 to 400,000 births and could be as few as 1.5 in 1 million;
Whereas globally there are approximately 300 individuals diagnosed with Barth
syndrome, and, in the United States, there are fewer than 150
individuals diagnosed with Barth syndrome;
Whereas Barth syndrome can be fatal in childhood due to heart failure or
uncontrollable infection, with approximately 50 percent of deaths due to
Barth syndrome occurring within the first year of life and 85 percent
before the fifth year of life;
Whereas individuals with Barth syndrome who survive to adulthood often have a
severely limited life expectancy;
Whereas individuals with Barth syndrome, like many other rare disorders,
experience challenges with obtaining a diagnosis, limited treatment
options, and difficulty finding and accessing treatment centers and
physicians with expertise in Barth syndrome;
Whereas because the disorder affects multiple systems of the body, a patient
with Barth syndrome often requires access to care from experts across a
range of medical specialties;
Whereas the Barth Syndrome Clinic at Kennedy Krieger Institute is the only
interdisciplinary clinic dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of
Barth syndrome in the United States;
Whereas, to date, there is no treatment for Barth syndrome that is approved by
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA);
Whereas there is a critical need for research and development to advance
treatments for Barth syndrome;
Whereas, as a result of the Orphan Drug Act, there have been important advances
in research on and treatment for rare diseases, including development
efforts in Barth syndrome;
Whereas the FDA established the Accelerated Approval Pathway in 1992 and
Congress codified the pathway in 2012;
Whereas the Accelerated Approval Pathway is an important pathway for rare and
ultrarare diseases as it allows for ``earlier approval of drugs that
treat serious conditions, and fill an unmet medical need. . .'';
Whereas Congress and the FDA have affirmed the importance of incorporating the
patient perspective throughout the drug review process through the FDA's
Patient-Focused Drug Development program;
Whereas the Barth Syndrome Foundation, a nonprofit organization established in
2000 to accelerate progress through collaboration between families and
scientists, is dedicated to educating, advancing treatments, and finding
a cure for Barth syndrome;
Whereas the Barth Syndrome Foundation sponsors ``Barth Syndrome Awareness Day''
in the United States to increase public awareness and generate
additional support for Barth syndrome; and
Whereas ``Barth Syndrome Awareness Day'' is expected to be observed in the
United States for years to come, providing hope and information for
patients, caregivers, and families around the country: Now, therefore,
be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) supports the designation of ``Barth Syndrome Awareness
Day''; and
(2) recognizes the importance of, with respect to Barth
syndrome--
(A) improving awareness;
(B) encouraging accurate and early diagnosis;
(C) advancing research;
(D) developing new treatments, diagnostics, and
cures; and
(E) identifying regulatory pathways for drug
development of ultrarare diseases like Barth syndrome.
