Committee on Post Office and Civil Service discharged, considered and agreed
to
RESOLUTION
To declare that July 28, 1994, be recognized as Parents
Day.
Whereas the values of sacrificial love and integrity are fun-
damental in developing the moral character essential to
maintaining a strong Nation;
Whereas parents by their example of sacrifical love and the
transmission of moral and cultural values play a crucial
and determinant role in the development of youth;
Whereas time has demonstrated that the traditional Amer-
ican family is the most stable and secure environment in
which parents can successfully rear future generations;
HRES 236 ATH
Whereas the current breakdown of the traditional American
family is a major factor contributing to the rise of crime,
teen pregnancy, educational failure, substance abuse, and
suicide among our Nation’s youth; and
Whereas it is in the interest of society and government to
adopt policies, that help families stay together by
strengthening and sustaining fathers and mothers in ful-
filling their parental roles: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That on Parents Day, July 28, 1994, all
private citizens, organizations and governmental and legis-
lative bodies at the local, State and Federal level are en-
couraged in recognize this day through proclamations, ac-
tivities and educational efforts in the furtherance of rec-
ognizing, uplifting and supporting the role of parents in
the rearing of their children.
