Whereas Cesar Chavez believed that preventing illegal immi-
gration was an essential prerequisite to improving the cir-
cumstances of American farmworkers; 
Whereas, in 1969, Chavez led a march to the Mexican border 
to protest illegal immigration, joined by Senator Walter 
Mondale and Martin Luther King’s successor as head of 
the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, Ralph 
Abernathy; 
Whereas Chavez noted that it is ‘‘almost impossible to start 
some effective program to get these people their jobs 
back from the braceros’’ once employers replace them; 
Whereas, in the 1970s, Chavez combined a campaign of iden-
tifying and reporting illegal workers with a campaign to 
boycott nonunionized farms in order to protect the labor 
of the unionized American worker; 
Whereas Chavez recognized that flooding the labor market 
with people from abroad undermines the unionized Amer-
ican worker; 
Whereas, in 1979, at the National Press Club, Chavez em-
phatically supported enforcement of immigration laws, 
stating that ‘‘people are being hurt and being destroyed, 
and with the complicity and with the help, of the Federal 
Government’’; and 
Whereas President Clinton recognized Chavez’s work saying, 
‘‘We can be proud of his enormous accomplishments and 
in the dignity and comfort he brought to the lives of so 
many of our country’s least powerful and most dispos-
sessed workers’’: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—

Affirming that all men and women are created equal. 
Whereas the advancement of gender equality is fundamental 
to the democracy of the United States; 
Whereas the Declaration of Independence states, ‘‘We hold

pendence, reiterates that both genders are endowed with 
unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap-
piness; 
Whereas, in 1919, the 66th Congress of the United States 
passed a resolution proposing an amendment to the Con-
stitution extending the right of suffrage to women; 
Whereas, in 1920, the 19th Amendment was adopted to the 
Constitution of the United States, guaranteeing all 
women the right to vote in elections throughout the coun-
try; 
Whereas the resolution proposing the Equal Rights Amend-
ment to the States for ratification, which was first intro-
duced in Congress in 1923 and agreed to with bipartisan 
support in 1972, provides that ‘‘Equality of rights under 
the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United 
States or by any State on account of sex’’, thereby ensur-
ing the same constitutional protections for both men and 
women; 
Whereas women have served in the labor movements, civil 
rights movements, and other causes to create a more fair 
and just society for all; and 
Whereas, while there has been exceptional progress towards 
gender equality and parity in the United States since the 
drafting of the Declaration of Sentiments and Resolu-

tionalized discrimination, gender-based violence, and sys-
