Honoring the United States Capitol Police for their commitment to security
at the Capitol.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
DECEMBER 6, 2001
Ms. LEE (for herself, Mr. SHIMKUS, Mr. NEY, and Mr. HOYER) submitted
the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on House
Administration
RESOLUTION
Honoring the United States Capitol Police for their
commitment to security at the Capitol.
Whereas the Capitol is an important symbol of freedom and
democracy across the United States and throughout the
world, and those who safeguard the Capitol safeguard
that freedom and democracy;
Whereas millions of people visit the Capitol each year to ob-
serve and learn the workings of the democratic process;
Whereas the United States Capitol Police force was created
by Congress in 1828 to provide security for the Capitol;
Whereas today the United States Capitol Police provide pro-
tection and support services throughout an array of con-
gressional buildings, parks, and thoroughfares;
•HRES 309 IH
Whereas the United States Capitol Police provide security for
Members of Congress, their staffs, other government em-
ployees, and many others who live near, work on, and
visit Capitol Hill;
Whereas the United States Capitol Police have successfully
managed and coordinated major demonstrations, joint
sessions of Congress, State of the Union Addresses, State
funerals, and inaugurations;
Whereas the United States Capitol Police have bravely faced
numerous emergencies, including three bombings and two
shootings, one of which, in 1998, tragically took the lives
of Private First Class Jacob ‘‘J.J.’’ Chestnut and Detec-
tive John Michael Gibson;
Whereas the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, have
created a uniquely difficult environment for the United
States Capitol Police;
Whereas the United States Capitol Police responded to this
challenge quickly and courageously, including by facili-
tating the evacuation of all of the buildings under their
purview, as well as the perimeter thereof; and
Whereas the United States Capitol Police have instituted
longer shifts, requiring that officers work substantial
overtime each week to ensure the continued protection of
the Capitol: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives honors
and thanks the United States Capitol Police for their out-
standing work and dedication during a period of height-
ened security that began on September 11, 2001.

H. Res. 330
In the House of Representatives, U.S.,
January 23, 2002.
Whereas the future course of the United States depends on
its children and youth;
Whereas educated, confident, and nurtured children will
make our Nation stronger;
Whereas research has shown that mentoring measurably af-
fects young people by increasing school attendance, im-
proving rates of secondary school graduation and college
attendance, decreasing involvement with drugs and alco-
hol, and decreasing violent behavior;
Whereas considerable numbers of our Nation’s children face
difficult circumstances: 1 out of 4 children lives with only
1 parent; 1 out of 10 children is born to teenaged par-
ents; 1 out of 5 children lives in poverty; and 1 out of
10 children will not finish secondary school;
Whereas mentoring is a proven, effective strategy to combat
such circumstances by matching a caring, responsible
adult with a child to provide guidance, stability, and di-
rection to the child and to build the child’s confidence;
Whereas it is estimated that more than 16,000,000 children
in the United States need or want a mentor but men-
toring programs nationwide serve at most 750,000 of
such children;

(d) Rule XXII of the Rules of the House of Rep-
resentatives (relating to House and Senate relations) is
amended by adding at the end the following new clause:
‘‘13. It shall not be in order to consider a conference

‘‘(1) the joint explanatory statement of the
