Whereas rural health care providers and patients showcase a 
selfless and community-minded spirit; 
Whereas rural areas in the United States are places of oppor-

(1) mission-minded health professionals to provide 
individualized care to their communities; and 
(2) fueling innovations in rural health infrastruc-
ture, quality, and delivery; 
Whereas health care providers in rural areas are uniquely po-
sitioned to deliver value-based holistic care; 
Whereas rural health care providers are known and trusted 
by their patients; 
Whereas residents in rural areas tend to experience lower life 
expectancy and poorer health status due to structural, 
behavioral, and geographic factors; 
Whereas residents in rural areas face barriers to accessing 
health care due to higher rates of uninsurance and 
underinsurance, lack of reliable transportation options, 
often increased exposure to public health and occupa-
tional hazards, and a limited number of available pro-
viders, especially those providing specialized care; 
Whereas rural health facilities in the United States face sys-
temic challenges, including clinician workforce shortages, 
difficulty accessing certain technologies such as tele-
health, and lower volumes of services spread over fixed 
costs; 
Whereas these challenges have made it more difficult for 
rural health care facilities to keep their doors open and 
serve patients, and have contributed to 150 rural hospital 
closures since 2010;

Whereas the policies of Mayor Bowser, Council Chair Phil 
Mendelson, Councilman Charles Allen, and the DC gov-
ernment are anti-police, anti-citizen, and pro-criminal; 
Whereas Councilman Allen is the author of the Revised 
Criminal Code Act of 2022, which reduced mandatory 
minimum sentences for carjacking; 
Whereas Council Chair Mendelson and Councilman Allen 
have led the charge for anti-police policies enacted in 
Washington, DC; 
Whereas Washington, DC, has already seen a record number 
of homicides and violent crime is up compared to last 
year; 
Whereas robberies in Washington, DC, are up compared to

Whereas motor vehicle thefts are up and total property 
crimes are up compared to last year; 
Whereas the Chief of the Metropolitan Police Department re-
cently said that the Department is down approximately 
500 officers; and 
Whereas it is clear that the anti-police policies of the DC gov-
ernment have led to rising crime, declining enrollment in 
the police force, and a less safe city: Now, therefore, be 
it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives con-
demns the actions of Mayor Muriel Bowser, Council Chair 
Phil Mendelson, Councilman Charles Allen, and the rest
