                               RESOLUTION


 
Recognizing that allowing illegal immigrants the right to vote devalues 
    the franchise and diminishes the voting power of United States 
                               citizens.

Whereas voting is fundamental to a functioning democracy;
Whereas the Constitution prohibits discrimination in voting based on race, sex, 
        poll taxes, and age;
Whereas it is of paramount importance that the United States maintains the 
        legitimacy of its elections and protects them from interference, 
        including interference from foreign threats and illegal voting;
Whereas the city of San Francisco, California, is allowing non-citizens, 
        including illegal immigrants, to register to vote in school board 
        elections; and
Whereas Federal law prohibits non-citizens from voting in elections for Federal 
        office: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives recognizes that 
allowing illegal immigrants the right to vote devalues the franchise 
and diminishes the voting power of United States citizens.

                               RESOLUTION


 
    Supporting the goals and ideals of the International Day of Non-
                               Violence.

Whereas the United Nations General Assembly established the International Day of 
        Non-Violence on June 15, 2007, to disseminate the message of non-
        violence, through means such as education and public awareness;
Whereas, the United Nations General Assembly has stated that ``non-violence, 
        tolerance, full respect for all human rights and fundamental freedoms 
        for all, democracy, development, mutual understanding and respect for 
        diversity are interlinked and mutually reinforcing'';
Whereas the annual International Day of Non-Violence celebration date, October 
        2, was chosen to commemorate the birthday of Mohandas K. Gandhi, more 
        commonly known as ``Mahatma'', which means ``great soul'';
Whereas Mahatma Gandhi was a world-renowned civil rights and spiritual leader, 
        who experienced injustices early in life, and learned to embrace the 
        principles of non-violence as a vehicle for social and political change;
Whereas Mahatma Gandhi was influenced by religious teachings in Hinduism, 
        Jainism, and Christianity in the development of his philosophy;
Whereas Mahatma Gandhi was a major influence for Martin Luther King, Jr., whose 
        emphasis on non-violence is credited with ushering in our Nation's civil 
        rights; and
Whereas people around the world commemorate the International Day of Non-
        Violence by participating in volunteer projects as a way to give back to 
        their communities: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the goals and ideals of the International Day 
        of Non-Violence; and
            (2) encourages the people of the United States to observe 
        the International Day of Non-Violence with appropriate 
        ceremonies, programs, and activities.

 Recognizing the Nordic Heritage Museum in Seattle, Washington, as the 
                        National Nordic Museum.

Whereas the Nordic Heritage Museum in Seattle, Washington, is the only museum in 
        the United States dedicated to the history, culture, and art of the 
        Nordic nations;
Whereas Nordic people have long contributed to the rich cultural heritage of the 
        United States;
Whereas the Nordic Heritage Museum serves as a unique and valuable resource 
        locally and nationwide in expanding knowledge of Nordic heritage and its 
        impact throughout the U.S.;
Whereas Nordic history, art, and culture will be even more vibrant and 
        accessible when the Nordic Heritage Museum opens its new state-of-the-
        art museum in 2018;
Whereas the State of Washington, King County, the Nordic Council (comprised of 
        Nordic nations), the national museums of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, 
        Norway, and Sweden, and many private individuals have partnered to 
        provide funds and exhibits for the new Nordic Heritage Museum;
Whereas the Nordic Heritage Museum is a significant resource in preserving and 
        celebrating the immigrant Nordic culture, art, and history;
Whereas the Nordic Heritage Museum is the only museum in the U.S. that exists 
        for the exclusive purpose of preserving, interpreting, and providing 
        education about Nordic culture and heritage;
Whereas the Nordic Heritage Museum promotes valuable international relations 
        with the Nordic countries of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and 
        Sweden; and
Whereas it is appropriate to designate the Nordic Heritage Museum in Seattle, 
        Washington, as the ``National Nordic Museum'': Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives recognizes the Nordic 
Heritage Museum of Seattle, Washington, as the ``National Nordic 
Museum''.

_______________________________________________________________________

                               RESOLUTION


 
  Expressing support for designation of February 3, 2018, as ``United 
                     States Missing Persons Day''.

Whereas the observance of United States Missing Persons Day on February 3, 2018, 
        provides an opportunity to raise awareness of the many individuals of 
        all ages who go missing each year;
Whereas in 2016, the National Crime Information Center had nearly 88,000 cases 
        of actively missing Americans, of those, more than 76,000 were under the 
        age of 21;
Whereas the establishment of United States Missing Persons Day is due in part to 
        the efforts of Jo Ann Lowitzer, whose daughter, Alexandria Joy ``Ali'' 
        Lowitzer, went missing from Spring, Texas, on April 26, 2010, at the age 
        of 16;
Whereas, on February 3, 2018, Ali would have been 24 years old, and on that day, 
        communities are encouraged to come together in support of all families 
        who have suffered the disappearance of a loved one;
Whereas this occasion also offers an opportunity to educate those families on 
        the best way to aid in the investigation of their loved one's case, to 
        communicate with case investigators, and to maintain public awareness of 
        the case until it is resolved; and
Whereas no matter their age, all missing persons leave behind family and friends 
        whose lives are consumed with longing for their safe return, and it is 
        appropriate that a special day be set aside in honor of all those who 
        have disappeared: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives 
that--
            (1) a day ought to be established to bring awareness to the 
        issue of missing persons; and
            (2) the people of the United States should be encouraged 
        to--
                    (A) observe the day with appropriate programs and 
                activities; and
                    (B) support worthy initiatives and increased 
                efforts to locate missing persons.

  Supporting international academic freedom and American universities 
                                abroad.

Whereas American universities and colleges have worked to effectively share 
        knowledge and promote the tradition of academic freedom around the 
        world;
Whereas American universities and colleges operating in other countries have 
        created vibrant academic institutions that are part of the local society 
        in the host countries and also connect local students and faculty to the 
        United States and the world;
Whereas such academic institutions strengthen the peaceful, productive ties 
        between the host countries and the United States and benefit local 
        economies, advancing the national interests of both the United States 
        and the hosting country;
Whereas academic freedom is under assault in many parts of the world, among 
        other urgent challenges to fundamental freedoms and universal values; 
        and
Whereas it is essential for the United States Government to support and defend 
        American-accredited academic institutions that are subjected to 
        discrimination, harassment, coercion, unjustified closure or seizure: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) believes that it should be the policy of the United 
        States to support American-accredited academic institutions 
        that are subjected to discrimination or harassment by foreign 
        governments and to respond quickly in the case of the coercion, 
        unjustified closure, or seizure of any such institution; and
            (2) urges the Secretary of State to take strong and 
        effective measures to respond to any such treatment toward 
        American-accredited academic institutions operating in other

                               RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing support for the designation of April 12, 2018, as ``Reman 
                                 Day''.

Whereas remanufacturing is a comprehensive and rigorous industrial process by 
        which a previously sold, leased, used, worn, or nonfunctional product or 
        part is returned to a ``same-as-when-new'' or better condition, from 
        both a quality and performance perspective, through a controlled, 
        reproducible, and sustainable process;
Whereas remanufacturing has been recognized by leading universities, research 
        institutions, and manufacturers around the world as the highest form of 
        recycling, by reducing greenhouse gas production, saving energy, and 
        reclaiming end-of-life products;
Whereas by encouraging businesses, State agencies, nonprofit organizations, 
        schools, and individuals to celebrate Reman Day, 2018, we can further 
        promote remanufacturing as environmentally friendly and economically 
        efficient; and
Whereas, to focus the Nation's attention on the benefits of remanufacturing, 
        businesses, educational institutions, and nonprofit organizations have 
        joined together to celebrate Reman Day and are encouraging colleagues, 
        friends, families, and communities to learn more about the benefits of 
        remanufactured products: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the 
designation of ``Reman Day''.

Whereas incidences of latex allergies have increased due to widespread exposure 
        to products containing latex rubber allergen;
Whereas latex allergies can be elicited by touching a product containing natural 
        rubber latex, breathing airborne latex protein particles, or digesting 
        food prepared using latex gloves;
Whereas those who suffer from latex allergies commonly suffer from cross-
        reactive food allergies or asthma;
Whereas latex allergies can be prevented by avoiding all latex-related products 
        which can be found in health care environments, restaurants, childcare 
        facilities, workplaces, schools, communities, and homes; and
Whereas the week of October 7, 2018, through October 13, 2018, would be

  support for the designation of April 18, 2017, as National Lineman 
                           Appreciation Day.

Whereas the profession of linemen is steeped in personal, family, and 
        professional tradition;
Whereas linemen are often first responders during storms and other catastrophic 
        events, working to make the scene safe for other public safety heroes;
Whereas linemen must work high atop powerlines 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, 
        to keep electricity flowing;
Whereas linemen play a vital role in the Nation's economy by maintaining and 
        growing the energy infrastructure of the United States;
Whereas linemen must often work under dangerous conditions separated from their 
        families to keep schools and businesses open;
Whereas linemen deserve recognition from the community regarding the danger of 
        their work; and
Whereas April 18, 2017, would be an appropriate date to designate as National 
        Lineman Appreciation Day: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) recognizes the efforts of linemen in keeping the power

            (2) supports the designation of National Lineman
