obstructs the ability of the African Union (AU) to sta-

RESOLUTION 
Supporting the goals and ideals of National Clean Beaches 
Week and recognizing the considerable value of American 
beaches and the need to keep them clean and safe for 
the public. 
Whereas the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administra-
tion reports that over 50 percent of the population of the 
United States lives in coastal counties; 
Whereas the beaches in these counties provide recreational 
opportunities for numerous Americans and their families, 
as well as international tourists, who together make al-
most 2,000,000,000 trips to the beach each year to fish, 
sunbathe, boat, swim, surf, and bird-watch, according to 
the Environmental Protection Agency;
•HRES 332 IH 
Whereas according to the Army Corps of Engineers, United 
States beaches are a critical driver of the American econ-

Whereas beaches represent a critical part of our natural her-

Whereas beaches are sensitive ecosystems, susceptible to deg-
radation and alteration from pollution, sewage, and im-
proper use; 
Whereas members of the Government, the private sector, and 
non-governmental organizations, along with citizen volun-
teers, have worked hard to clean up and protect our 
beaches over the years; 
Whereas great strides have been made in understanding the 
science of watersheds and the connections between inland 
areas and coastal waters, and science-based policy should 
be developed that is commensurate with this knowledge; 
Whereas beaches require vigilant protection so as to be en-
joyed safely by all; and 
Whereas the week of June 27 through July 3, 2005, will be

In the House of Representatives, U.S., 
July 11, 2005.
Whereas, on July 22, 2004, Congress declared that genocide 
was taking place in Darfur, Sudan; 
Whereas, on September 9, 2004, Secretary of State Colin L. 
Powell testified to the Senate Committee on Foreign Re-
lations that ‘‘genocide has been committed in Darfur’’; 
Whereas, on September 21, 2004, President George W. Bush 
stated to the United Nations General Assembly that ‘‘the 
world is witnessing terrible suffering and horrible crimes 
in the Darfur region of Sudan, crimes my government 
has concluded are genocide’’; 
Whereas Article 1 of the Convention on the Prevention and 
Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, done at Paris De-
cember 9, 1948, and entered into force January 12, 
1951, states that ‘‘[t]he Contracting Parties confirm that 
genocide, whether committed in time of peace or in time 
of war, is a crime under international law which they un-
dertake to prevent and to punish’’; 
Whereas fundamental human rights, including the right to 
freedom of thought, conscience, and religion, are pro-
tected in numerous international agreements and declara-
tions;
•HRES 333 EH 
Whereas the United Nations Security Council, in Security 
Council Resolution 1591, condemned the ‘‘continued vio-
lations of the N’djamena Ceasefire Agreement of 8 April 
2004 and the Abuja Protocols of 9 November 2004 by 
all sides in Darfur and the deterioration of the security 
situation and negative impact this has had on humani-
tarian assistance efforts’’; 
Whereas scholars estimate that as many as 400,000 have 
died from violence, hunger, and disease since the out-
break of conflict in Darfur began in 2003, and that as 
many as 10,000 may be dying each month; 
Whereas it is estimated that more than 2,000,000 people 
have been displaced from their homes and remain in 
camps in Darfur and Chad; 
Whereas religious leaders, genocide survivors, and world lead-
ers have expressed grave concern over the continuing 
atrocities taking place in Darfur; and 
Whereas it is appropriate that the people of the United 
States, leaders and citizens alike, unite in prayer for the 
people of Darfur and reflect upon the situation in 
Darfur: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That the House of Representatives—
(1) supports the goals and ideals of a National 
Weekend of Prayer and Reflection for Darfur, Sudan; 
(2) encourages the people of the United States to 
observe that weekend by praying for an end to the geno-
cide and crimes against humanity and for lasting peace 
in Darfur, Sudan; and
•HRES 333 EH 
(3) urges all churches, synagogues, mosques, and
