H. Res. 79 
In the House of Representatives, U. S., 
September 24, 2007.

efforts among hunters, sportsmen’s associations, meat 
processors, State meat inspectors, and hunger relief orga-

Whereas during the past three years Hunters for the Hungry

the Hungry programs continue to feed those in need: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—

sportsmen’s associations, meat processors, State meat 
inspectors, and hunger relief organizations to establish 
Hunters for the Hungry programs across the United

States and other government entities reward those who 
show disrespect and disregard for Federal immigration 
laws; 
Whereas the very act of entering the United States illegally 
shows disrespect for the laws of the United States and 
should not be rewarded in any way; and 
Whereas issuing driver’s licenses to undocumented individuals 
presents a national security risk and enables election 
fraud: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that States should not issue driver’s licenses

Whereas nearly six years after the liberation of Afghanistan 
from the Taliban, who provided al-Qaeda with a safe 
haven for planning the attacks of September 11, 2001, 
Afghanistan remains under siege, and the democratically 
elected Government of Afghanistan remains subject to at-
tacks from remnants of the Taliban who have regrouped 
along with other insurgent groups, including al-Qaeda; 
Whereas poppy cultivation and opium production, which di-
rectly support, sustain, and finance insurgents, militias, 
and terrorist organizations operating in Afghanistan, con-
tinue to dramatically increase; 
Whereas the security of Afghanistan is closely intertwined 
with the security of its regional neighbors, and therefore 
cooperation and support from its neighbors in defeating 
insurgents and establishing security is urgently required; 
Whereas the international community, including the Govern-
ment of the United States, has expressed its ongoing 
commitment to supporting the efforts of the Government 
and people of Afghanistan to build a stable, secure, and 
democratic nation with the achievement of the Afghani-
stan Compact in 2006; 
Whereas Afghanistan remains a critical front in the global 
struggle against terrorism, and supporting the develop-
ment of democratic institutions in Afghanistan is critical 
to defeating this threat; and 
Whereas the House Democracy Assistance Commission of the 
United States House of Representatives has worked in 
partnership with the Wolesi Jirga to strengthen its insti-
tutional capacity, and remains committed to a strong and 
mutually-beneficial partnership: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
