Whereas vitiligo is a long-term, chronic disorder that results 
in the loss of pigment in patches on the skin, hair, eyes, 
and inside of the mouth; 
Whereas the condition can result in discomfort, itching, and 
pain, but there is still no known cure; 
Whereas the American Academy of Dermatology refers to vit-
iligo as a life-altering disorder that can cause low self-es-
teem, anger, and depression; 
Whereas according to the American Academy of Derma-
tology, about half of the individuals diagnosed with vit-
iligo are diagnosed before the age of 21;

Whereas a study by Pediatric Dermatology found that about 
half of all children and adolescents diagnosed with vitiligo 
experienced a decreased quality of life, and some individ-
uals even experienced problems with schoolwork, in-
creased bullying and teasing, trouble with developing 
friendships, and self-confidence issues; 
Whereas a Yale study found that bullied children are two to 
nine times more likely to consider suicide, and the CDC 
reports suicide is the third leading cause of death among 
young people; and 
Whereas Judith Porter, Ph.D., and Ann Beuf, Ph.D., found 
that social support for children and adolescents with vit-
iligo provided by families, peers, charities, support 
groups, and teachers can greatly improve their quality of 
life and decrease stress related to bullying: Now, there-

Resolved, That the House of Representatives— 
(1) supports the designation of ‘‘National Vit-
iligo Awareness Day’’; and 
(2) recognizes the importance of providing sup-

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regard-

Whereas most girls subjected to commercial sexual exploi-

Whereas it is important to provide education for family,

to heal from the complex trauma of sexual violence and 
exploitation; 
Whereas the same protections and supports available to vic-

of trafficking; and 
Whereas exploited and trafficked girls are not ‘‘bad girls’’ or 
‘‘child prostitutes’’, but are victims of systemized rape 
who need the same legal supports and protections other

Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports

(1) provide protections and supports for sexu-

when treatment works best; 
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention esti-

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 between the ages of 50 and 75 are not up to date 
with recommended colorectal cancer screening; 
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, there-
