ARTICLE IV
By his conduct as an officer of the United States of
America, including the conduct described in Articles I
through III of these Articles of Impeachment, Kenneth W.
Starr has violated the oath he took to uphold and defend
the Constitution of the United States of America. He has
acted and persisted in acting in ways that were calculated
to and did embarrass the United States and the people
of the United States before the international community
and that were calculated to and did undermine the ability
of the Legislative Branch, the Executive Branch, and the
Judicial Branch to effectively exercise the powers and dis-
charge the duties assigned to each by the Constitution of
the United States of America. He has unconstitutionally
and improperly exercised powers that were not his to exer-
cise and has acted in ways that were calculated to and
did improperly demean a President of the United States
and diminish the capacity of the President to effectively
discharge the duties that the people of the United States
HRES 545 IH
elected him to perform. He has unconstitutionally and im-
properly exercised his powers and has acted in ways that
were calculated to and did demean the House of Rep-
resentatives and that have effectively deprived the House
of Representatives of its right to exercise its sole power
of impeachment in a deliberate and bipartisan manner
that was consistent with the procedures and precedents
it had established in prior proceedings and inquiries to de-
termine whether the President of the United States should
be impeached. He has unlawfully and improperly exercised
his powers in ways that demeaned the institution of the
federal grand jury, that demonstrated contempt of the
courts of the United States and the rules that govern their
proceedings, and that demeaned the office of independent
counsel and offices of all those charged with responsibility
for seeing that the laws of the United States are faithfully
executed. By his conduct as an independent counsel, Ken-
neth W. Starr has committed high crimes and misdemean-
ors against the Constitution and the people of the United
States.
In all of this, Kenneth W. Starr has acted in a man-
ner contrary to his trust as an independent counsel of the
United States and subversive of constitutional govern-
ment, to the great prejudice of the cause of law and jus-

Recognizing that prevention of youth suicide is a compelling

Whereas youth suicide is one of the most disruptive and trag-

it occurs at a national rate of over 5,000 youth suicides
annually;
Whereas suicide is the fastest growing cause of death among
youths;
Whereas suicide kills youths 3 to 6 times more often than
homicide;
Whereas research shows that 95 percent of all youth suicides
are preventable;
Whereas research shows that the prevention of youth suicide
must be recognized as a national priority;
•HRES 548 IH
Whereas community awareness and education will encourage
the development of strategies to prevent youth suicide;
Whereas the yellow ribbon is rapidly becoming recognized
internationally as the symbol for the awareness and pre-
vention of youth suicide, and it is recognized and used by
suicide prevention groups, crisis centers, schools, church-
es, youth centers, hospitals, counselors, teachers, parents,
and especially youths themselves; and
Whereas September 20–26, 1998, should be recognized as
Yellow Ribbon Youth Suicide Awareness and Prevention
Week: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
(1) recognizes that the need to increase aware-
ness about and prevent youth suicide is a compelling
national priority; and
(2) encourages Americans, communities, and
the Nation to work to increase awareness about and
prevent youth suicide.
