        conduct;
Whereas Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the leader of the Lubavitch movement, 
        is revered worldwide for the contributions he has made to education and 
        sharing;
Whereas the 2,000 educational, social, and rehabilitative institutions

        people whom they serve each year;
Whereas Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson has interpreted, in the miraculous 
        events of our times, the increasing vitality of these ideals for the 
        furtherance of human understanding and betterment;
Whereas the extraordinary life and work of Rabbi Menachem Mandel Schneerson have

        ``Education Day, U.S.A.'';
Whereas the Lubavicher Rebbe's 91st birthday falls on April 2, 1993;
Whereas in tribute to this esteemed spiritual leader, the Lubavicher Rebbe's 
        birthday will be designated as ``Education and Sharing Day, U.S.A.''; 
        and
Whereas such designation will signal a renewal of our Nation's commitment to 
        greater acts of charity, to an enriched emphasis on education, and to 
        the furtherance of ethnical teachings and values in the affairs of 
        government and in the lives of our citizens: Now, therefore, be it
