Whereas W. Graham Claytor, Jr., has positioned Amtrak to
be the Nation’s leader in the development of high-speed
rail for the next century and has overseen development
of the Northeast Corridor as the Nation’s premier rail
passenger line and a model for high-speed operations

Mr. TORRICELLI introduced the following joint resolution; which was referred

JOINT RESOLUTION
Designating March 21, 1994, as ‘‘National Single Parent
Day’’.
Whereas there are 16,000,000 single parents in the United
States, and the number of single parents has doubled in
the last 20 years;
Whereas 25 percent of the Nation’s children are now living
in single parent families, and an estimated 50 percent of
the Nation’s children will live with a single parent before
reaching 18 years of age;
Whereas, in the past, single parent families have not always
been an accepted part of society;
•HJ 296 IH
Whereas single parents have struggled courageously to raise
their children to a healthy maturity, to give their children
the full sense of being loved and accepted as persons, and
to give their children the same prospects for adulthood as
children who mature in 2-parent households; and
Whereas it is time to recognize the courage and dedication
of single parents who work to maintain strong family
units and to be responsible members of American society:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives
of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That March 21, 1994, is designated as ‘‘National Single
Parent Day’’, and the President is authorized and re-
quested to issue a proclamation calling on the people of
the United States to observe the day with appropriate
