        bill establishing Glacier National Park, the Nation's 10th 
        national park;
            (2) in 1931, members of the Rotary Clubs of Alberta and 
        Montana suggested joining Glacier National Park with its 
        adjacent cross-border Canadian national park, Waterton Lakes 
        National Park, as a symbol of peace and friendship between the 
        2 nations;
            (3) in 1932, the United States and Canadian Governments 
        agreed to jointly designate the 2 parks as Waterton-Glacier 
        International Peace Park, the world's first;
            (4) both parks are Biosphere Reserves, and were named as a 
        World Heritage Site in 1995, highlighting the importance of the 
        parks, not just to the United States and Canada, but to the 
        entire world;
            (5) Glacier National Park's rugged and soaring mountains, 
        pristine forests, watchable wildlife, alpine meadows, and 
        spectacular lakes have inspired generations of people to 
        explore and experience nature;
            (6) known as ``The Crown of the Continent'', Glacier 
        National Park, with its awe-inspiring beauty, majesty, and 
        grandeur, is an incredible national treasure; and
