                               RESOLUTION


 
Expressing support for the designation of June 21 as International Yoga 
                                  Day.

Whereas the United Nations adopted resolution 69/131 on December 11, 2014, which 
        proclaimed that June 21 is the International Day of Yoga;
Whereas 175 countries cosponsored the resolution;
Whereas the practicing of yoga will help promote better health among the global 
        population and help encourage the need for healthier choices and 
        lifestyles;
Whereas, on June 21, countries across the world will hold yoga events and 
        demonstrations; and
Whereas Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi addressed the United Nations 
        General Assembly on September 27, 2014, on the adoption of an 
        International Yoga Day, stating, ``Yoga is an invaluable gift of India's 
        ancient tradition. It embodies unity of mind and body; thought and 
        action; restraint and fulfillment; harmony between man and nature; a 
        holistic approach to health and well-being. It is not about exercise but 
        to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, the world and the 
        nature.'': Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the designation of International Yoga Day;
            (2) supports the ideals that International Yoga Day 
        embodies; and
            (3) encourages all individuals to participate in 
        International Yoga Day events.

Ms. Frankel of Florida (for herself and Ms. Ros-Lehtinen) submitted the

_______________________________________________________________________

                               RESOLUTION


 
  Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Women's Congressional Staff 
                              Association.

Whereas, in August 2008, a bipartisan group of female congressional staffers 
        founded the Women's Congressional Staff Association (referred to in this 
        preamble as the ``WCSA''), the first official staff association focused 
        on the professional development of female staffers;
Whereas WCSA has over 400 active members in the House of Representatives and 
        Senate;
Whereas the commitment of the WCSA to bipartisanship fosters congeniality and 
        respect in Congress;
Whereas WCSA organizes and hosts a variety of career development opportunities 
        for female staffers, such as resume reviews, networking workshops, and 
        mock interview sessions; and
Whereas WCSA provides mentoring opportunities to further the career advancement 
        and professional education of young staffers: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Women's 
        Congressional Staff Association's founding (referred to in this 
        resolving clause as the ``WCSA'');
            (2) commends the WCSA on its many achievements and 
        contributions to the congressional community; and
            (3) reaffirms the commitment of the House to supporting the 
        professional development of female staff members.

  Urging the release of information regarding the September 11, 2001, 
               terrorist attacks upon the United States.

Whereas tens of thousands of pages of documents relating to the terrorist 
        attacks of September 11, 2001, remain classified by the Federal 
        Government;
Whereas the contents of these documents are necessary for a full public 
        understanding of the events and circumstances surrounding the September 
        11, 2001, attacks upon the United States;
Whereas the decision to maintain the classified status of many of these 
        documents prevents the people of the United States from having access to 
        information about the attacks, including the involvement of certain 
        foreign governments; and
Whereas the people of the United States and the families of the victims of the 
        September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks deserve full and public disclosure 
        of the events surrounding the attack: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives 
that--
            (1) documents related to the events of September 11, 2001, 
        should be declassified to the greatest extent possible; and
            (2) the survivors, the families of the victims, and the 
        people of the United States deserve answers about the events 
        and circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001, attacks

   Ms. Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico submitted the following 
                resolution; which was laid on the table

_______________________________________________________________________

                               RESOLUTION


 
           Raising a question of the privileges of the House.

Whereas, on January 30, 2018, Representative Paul Gosar tweeted a series of 
        statements that included ``Today, Congressman Paul Gosar contacted the 
        U.S. Capitol Police, as well as Attorney General Jeff Sessions, asking 
        that they consider checking identification of all attending the State of 
        the Union address and arresting any illegal aliens in attendance.'';
Whereas Representative Gosar went on to tweet ``Any illegal aliens attempting to 
        go through security, under any pretext of invitation or otherwise, 
        should be arrested and deported,'' said Congressman Gosar;
Whereas Representative Gosar's comments explicitly targeted the DACA recipients 
        that Members of Congress brought as their guests to the State of the 
        Union;
Whereas DACA recipients have been granted deferred action, are contributing to 
        this country, and have been thoroughly vetted by the U.S. Citizenship 
        and Immigration Services;
Whereas Representative Gosar's actions to inappropriately pressure the U.S. 
        Capitol Police to detain and deport Dreamers, who are staying in the 
        country according to U.S. Department of Homeland Security regulations, 
        intimidated these young people who are already facing fear and 
        uncertainty;
Whereas Representative Gosar abused the power in an attempt to interfere with 
        and politicize the United States Capitol Police's efforts to provide for 
        a safe, secure, and open environment during the State of the Union;
Whereas Representative Gosar has violated clause 1 of rule XXIII of the Code of 
        Official Conduct which states that ``A Member, Delegate, Resident 
        Commissioner, officer or employee of the House shall behave at all times 
        in a manner that shall reflect creditably on the House'': Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives strongly condemns 
Representative Paul Gosar for his inappropriate actions that 
intimidated State of the Union guests and discredited the House of 
Representatives.

 Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United 
 States Postal Service should take all appropriate measures to ensure 
          the continuation of its 6-day mail delivery service.

Whereas the United States Postal Service has announced that it may need to 
        reduce the frequency of its mail delivery service from 6 days a week to 
        5 days a week;
Whereas 6-day mail delivery service is an essential service that the American 
        people have relied on since 1912, particularly working families that 
        depend on the Postal Service for the timely delivery of their paychecks; 
        and
Whereas reducing mail delivery service to 5 days a week would inevitably cause 
        not only delays in the delivery of mail, but higher postal costs, due to 
        the many hours of additional overtime that the Postal Service would 
        require in order to handle the resulting back-up of mail: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that 
the United States Postal Service should take all appropriate measures 
to ensure the continuation of its 6-day mail delivery service.

Whereas the Payaya Indians first made their home in present day San Antonio and 
        played an integral role in its founding and culture;
Whereas, on May 1, 1718, the Mission San Antonio de Valero was established by 
        Father Antonio de San Buenaventura y Olivares;
Whereas since its founding, San Antonio has become the second largest city in 
        Texas with a population of more than 1.5 million people;
Whereas San Antonio has developed into a rich and diverse city steeped in 
        history, as evidenced by its classification as a United Nations 
        Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World 
        Heritage Site;
Whereas San Antonio is known as ``Military City USA,'' home to Joint Base San 
        Antonio, which is made up of Randolph Air Force Base, Fort Sam Houston, 
        Lackland Air Force Base, and Camp Bullis, proudly contributing to 
        America's national security and prosperity around the world;
Whereas San Antonio has established itself on the world's stage and enjoys 
        relationships with 11 sister cities throughout the world--in Mexico, 
        Spain, China, South Korea, Japan, India, Namibia, Germany, and Taiwan; 
        and
Whereas the people of San Antonio have made invaluable contributions and 
        achievements in the areas of medicine, art, music, gastronomy, sport, 
        law, education, literature, and government: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) recognizes the 300th anniversary of the founding of the 
        city of San Antonio, Texas;
            (2) celebrates the contributions San Antonians have made to 
        Texas and the Nation; and
            (3) honors the sacrifices of all those who have made San 
        Antonio, Texas, a world-class city.

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the President

 comprehensive tax reform within the first 240 days of the President's 
                            administration.

Whereas the 44th President of the United States of America created the 
        bipartisan National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform to 
        address our Nation's fiscal challenges;
Whereas the Commission was charged with identifying policies to improve our 
        national fiscal situation in the medium term and to achieve fiscal 
        sustainability over the long run;
Whereas the President, the majority leader of the Senate, the Speaker of the 
        House of Representatives, the minority leader of the Senate, and the 
        minority leader of the House of Representatives made appointments to the 
        Commission;
Whereas the Commission proposed comprehensive tax reform measures to lower tax 
        rates, reduce the deficit, simplify the tax code, and make America the 
        best place to start a business and create jobs; and
Whereas, that in the 240th year of our republic, it would be fitting to witness 
        a Rose Garden signing ceremony enacting tax reforms within the 
        President's first 240 days in office: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that 
the President of the United States shall, with the help of the 
Congress, address comprehensive tax reform within the first 240 days of 
the President's administration.

Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives on Trumpcare, also 
             known as the American Health Care Act of 2017.

Whereas the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has made great strides in 
        ensuring that health care is affordable, accessible and attainable for 
        all Americans;
Whereas Trumpcare, also known as the American Health Care Act of 2017, threatens 
        to undo all of the gains made by the Patient Protection and Affordable 
        Care Act;
Whereas under Trumpcare, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office estimates 
        that 24 million Americans will lose health care coverage by 2026;
Whereas under Trumpcare, individuals and families will be forced to pay higher 
        costs for worse care;
Whereas under Trumpcare, older Americans will be forced to pay premiums five 
        times higher than what others will pay for health care coverage;
Whereas Trumpcare would steal from part A of the Medicare program, reducing 
        Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund revenues by $117 billion between 
        2017 and 2026, hurting older Americans;
Whereas under Trumpcare, $880 billion will be cut from Medicaid over the next 
        ten years, causing 14 million Americans to be uninsured; and
Whereas under Trumpcare, the 400 wealthiest Americans will receive a new $7 
        million tax break each year: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports efforts to ensure access to quality and 
        affordable health care for all Americans; and
            (2) rejects any effort to take away the health care from 
        Americans.

 Expressing support for the designation of Clergy Spouse Appreciation 
                                  Day.

Whereas the church is where the community of saints assemble together to 
        cultivate, nurture, and enhance a concrete spiritual connection between 
        God and man that ultimately leads to advancing the minds and improving 
        the lives of those in the community;
Whereas the clergy are God's authorized representatives, whose mission is to 
        create an atmosphere of unity, love, and hope in an otherwise oppressed 
        and chaotic community;
Whereas the clergy extend themselves to organize, promote, and influence 
        programs and activities that create that atmosphere of unity, love, and 
        hope;
Whereas the clergy spouse has accepted the challenge to work alongside God's 
        ambassador as the spouse carries out the assigned mission of educating 
        and equipping the community with the necessary tools to enhance their 
        living standards;
Whereas the nature of the service provided by the clergy and their spouses is 
        unique, as they are entrusted with the spiritual well-being of the 
        flock, thereby creating a positive impact on their respective 
        communities;
Whereas the dedication and sacrifice provided by the clergy spouses to improve 
        the quality of life for their community is immeasurable;
Whereas a day in recognition of the contributions of the clergy spouses would 
        highlight their dedication by increasing awareness of the many service 
        programs organized and executed by the more than 200,000 clergy spouses 
        in the United States; and
Whereas the third Sunday in October would be an appropriate date to designate as 
        Clergy Spouse Appreciation Day: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the 
designation of Clergy Spouse Appreciation Day.

       through September 24, 2017, as ``Balance Awareness Week''.

Whereas vestibular (inner-ear-balance) disorders are underdiagnosed and 
        undertreated;
Whereas, as many as 35 percent of adults 40 years of age and older in the United 
        States, approximately 69,000,000 people in the United States, have 
        experienced some form of vestibular dysfunction;
Whereas 80 percent of people 65 years of age and older have experienced 
        dizziness;
Whereas vestibular disorder patients may consult 4 or more physicians and spend 
        50 months or more in their search for a diagnosis;
Whereas the Vestibular Disorders Association celebrates ``Balance Awareness 
        Week'' to reduce the time it takes to diagnose a vestibular disorder by 
        helping patients recognize their symptoms and encouraging them to seek 
        help from a qualified vestibular specialist; and
Whereas the week of September 18, 2017, through September 24, 2017, would be an 
        appropriate week to designate as ``Balance Awareness Week'': Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the designation of ``Balance Awareness Week''; 
        and
            (2) recognizes the importance of raising public awareness
