Recognizing Project HOPE for 50 years of exceptional service in improving 
and saving the lives of millions of children and adults in developing

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
SEPTEMBER 23, 2008 
Mr. COOPER (for himself, Ms. BORDALLO, Mr. COHEN, Mr. RANGEL, Mr. 
MCDERMOTT, Mr. WOLF, Mr. MORAN
of Virginia, Ms. LORETTA 
SANCHEZ of California, Mr. JACKSON of Illinois, Mr. CROWLEY, and Ms.

RESOLUTION 
Recognizing Project HOPE for 50 years of exceptional serv-
ice in improving and saving the lives of millions of chil-
dren and adults in developing nations through humani-
tarian assistance and health education. 
Whereas the mission of Project HOPE (Health Opportunities 
for People Everywhere) is to achieve sustainable advances 
in health care around the world by implementing health 
education programs and providing humanitarian assist-
ance in areas of need; 
Whereas Project HOPE pioneered medical diplomacy in 1958 
by developing relationships with health professionals and 
people of different cultures in developing nations through

the sharing of medical knowledge and the care of patients 
both young and old; 
Whereas Project HOPE works across a variety of health lev-
els, from the family and community levels to the tertiary 
care level, and provides training to a broad scope of 
health professionals from traditional birth attendants and 
community health volunteers to cardiac surgeons and bio-
medical engineers; 
Whereas Project HOPE has trained more than 2,000,000 
health 
care 
workers 
and 
distributed 
nearly 
$2,000,000,000 of pharmaceuticals and medical supplies 
to people in need; 
Whereas Project HOPE has vaccinated hundreds of thou-
sands of children and delivered health education and care 
to people in nearly 100 countries worldwide; 
Whereas over the past 5 decades, Project HOPE has dem-
onstrated its ability to develop and institute long-term so-
lutions to pressing health problems, the true essence of 
helping people help themselves; and 
Whereas Project HOPE continues to address new health 
threats to the world by playing a leadership role in forg-
ing new alliances among those on the front lines of health 
care and health education: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives recog-
nizes Project HOPE for 50 years of exceptional service 
in improving and saving the lives of millions of children 
and adults in developing nations through humanitarian as-
sistance and health education.

Whereas a standard of identity for folic acid fortification for 
enriched grain food products has been promulgated; 
Whereas the Food and Drug Administration (‘‘FDA’’) adopt-
ed the current folic acid enriched grain food fortification 
standard of identity in 1998, based on the best available 
scientific evidence, and newer scientific studies have 
shown that the current fortification level is not effectively 
reducing the prevalence of preventable serious birth de-
fects; 
Whereas the scientific consensus is that 70 to 76 percent of 
serious birth-defect births are preventable if women of 
childbearing age consume 400 micrograms of folic acid 
per day, and a higher level of folic acid fortification can 
help prevent heart disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, 
and some cancers in men and women; 
Whereas since the FDA adopted the current folic acid for-
tification standard of identity, many peer-reviewed sci-
entific studies have been published and have been re-
viewed by a distinguished group of leading birth-defect 
scientists and researchers; 
Whereas these scientists and researchers have concluded that 
the question of whether to add more folic acid to fortified 
grains and to corn-based products is too important to 
public health to remain unexamined by the FDA; 
Whereas studies by the Centers for Disease Control and Pre-
vention have shown that 60 percent of women are not 
taking supplements to increase their folic acid intake; 
Whereas birth-defect prevention education remains alarm-
ingly low; 
Whereas surveys since 1998 have found that only 24 percent 
of women of child-bearing age know that folic acid helps

do know, only 40 percent know that 400 micrograms 
should be consumed every day; and 
Whereas the Institute of Medicine, the American Academy of 
Pediatrics, the United States Public Health Service, the 
March of Dimes, the Spina Bifida Association, and other 
groups have recommended that the FDA revise the cur-
rent standard on folic acid enriched grain to reflect the 
new scientific evidence: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that the Commissioner of Food and Drugs 
should evaluate the scientific evidence on the question of 
whether to add more folic acid to enriched grain products 
and expand folic acid fortification into cornmeal and corn- 
based food products to help prevent further serious birth 
defects.
