ragtime, jazz, and blues; 
Whereas that tradition of diversity remains today, as the in-
fluence 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 High-

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

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 pic-
tures, 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 coun-
try and around the world, a testament to the universal 
appeal of a historical American art form that both in-
spires 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.

colorectal cancer is 90 percent, but only 39 percent of all

colorectal cancer incidence and mortality, yet, 1 in 3

Whereas 1 in 23 men and 1 in 26 women will be diagnosed

Whereas public awareness and education campaigns on 
colorectal cancer prevention, screening, and symptoms
