Whereas more than one third of veterans with a spinal cord injury report 
        pressure injuries each year, and those veterans face more than $77,000 
        in inpatient costs compared to those without; and
Whereas patients with hospital-acquired pressure injuries increase their length 
        of stay from 4.9 to 11.6 days, adding more than six days of 
        hospitalization, and as a result, these patients are more likely to be 
        readmitted to a hospital: Now, therefore, be it

Whereas the House of Representatives strongly opposes racism, anti-Semitism, and 
        all forms of ethnic or religious intolerance;
Whereas, on February 25, 2018, Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam, 
        gave a speech saying ``White folks are going down. And Satan is going 
        down. And Farrakhan, by God's grace, has pulled the cover off of that 
        Satanic Jew and I'm here to say your time is up, your world is 
        through.''; and
Whereas Louis Farrakhan has consistently attacked Jewish Americans and the 
        Jewish faith, claiming Judaism is nothing more than a ``deceptive lie'' 
        and a ``theological error'' promoted by Jews, and claiming that Israel 
        and Jews helped orchestrate the 9/11 attacks: Now, therefore, be it

 Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the symbols

                          celebrate Christmas.

Whereas Christmas is a national holiday celebrated on December 25; and
Whereas the Framers intended that the First Amendment of the Constitution, in

   Supporting a Federal, publically funded universal school meal and 
                           nutrition program.

Whereas school nutrition programs help end childhood hunger and provide access 
        to healthy, nutritious meals;
Whereas access to school meals has been shown to improve educational outcomes;
Whereas the United States Department of Agriculture's Community Eligibility 
        Provision was established to provide greater access to school meals 
        throughout the Nation;
Whereas the expansion of the Community Eligibility Provision to all schools 
        would increase the availability of school meals for students and reduce 
        childhood hunger;
Whereas the Community Eligibility Provision also eliminates any stigma that 
        accompanies free or reduced meals and students unable to purchase meals 
        due to insufficient account funds; and
Whereas expansion of the Community Eligibility Provision would further allow 
        schools to shift resources from paperwork to providing high quality 
        meals: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports a Federal, 
publically funded universal school meal and nutrition program.

    Commemorating and acknowledging veteran-owned small businesses.

Whereas members and veterans of the Armed Forces of the United States develop a 
        wide array of skills during their time of service that support 
        entrepreneurship;
Whereas many veterans build on their experience in the Armed Forces to start 
        their own business after leaving active service;
Whereas veterans form a vital part of the United States labor force, and firms 
        that hire veterans benefit from their diverse set of skills;
Whereas more than one in five veterans surveyed have purchased a business, 
        started their own business, or considered doing so;
Whereas there are more than 2,500,000 veteran-owned businesses in the United 
        States, representing more than 9 percent of all United States firms;
Whereas veteran-owned businesses employ more than 5,000,000 people and generate 
        an annual payroll of $195,000,000,000;
Whereas veteran-owned businesses generate more than $1,140,000,000,000 in annual 
        sales; and
Whereas the Small Business Administration, through its Boots to Business 
        program, has trained more than 30,000 service members, veterans, and 
        their spouses on launching their own small business: Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) honors and recognizes veterans for their service to the 
        United States; and
            (2) celebrates the entrepreneurial spirit and work of

Whereas the United States has had longstanding, positive relations with both the 
        Republic of Turkey and the Republic of Armenia, and it is in the 
        national interest of the United States to promote improved relations 
        between the countries;
Whereas on October 10, 2009, the Foreign Ministers of Turkey and Armenia signed 
        protocols to establish good neighborly relations and develop bilateral 
        cooperation, including a joint study of their common history, at a 
        ceremony that was attended and supported by representatives of the 
        United States, France, and Russia; and
Whereas attempts by the United States to support Turkish-Armenian dialogue and 
        the normalization of diplomatic relations between the two countries have 
        not been successful thus far: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives calls on the President 
to work toward equitable, constructive, stable, and durable Armenian-
Turkish relations, based upon the two countries' common interests and 
the United States' significant security interests in the region.

   Mr. Himes (for himself, Ms. Norton, and Mr. Tipton) submitted the

                               RESOLUTION


 
  Expressing support for designation of April 24, 2018, as ``National 
                        Business Traveler Day''.

Whereas business travelers represent a vital component to the economic health of 
        the United States economy today and in the future;
Whereas business travel comprises an estimated $424 billion annual share of the 
        United States gross domestic product;
Whereas two million business trips are taken each day in the United States;
Whereas close to half of all business travelers are women and 73 percent are 
        under the age of 55;
Whereas business travelers are significantly affected by travel problems such as 
        changing weather, equipment malfunction, and routine delays and 
        cancellations;
Whereas business travelers are often more sensitive to efficiency, timetables, 
        and consistency of service than leisure travelers;
Whereas an estimated 70 percent of business travelers work for companies that 
        have no policies on supplier usage, resulting in such business travelers 
        making their own travel purchases for air, hotel, and ground 
        transportation, and often needing to fend for themselves when problems 
        occur during travel; and
Whereas this segment of business travel is experiencing an annual growth rate of 
        6 percent: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the designation of ``National Business 
        Traveler Day''; and
            (2) encourages the people of the United States to observe 
        ``National Business Traveler Day'' with appropriate programs, 
        ceremonies, and activities.
