  Expressing the sense of the Senate that the President of the United

   and Reuniting Children with Parents in order to protect separated 
  children from suffering additional trauma resulting from the ``Zero 
                          Tolerance'' policy.

Whereas families belong together, and innocent children must be quickly and 
        safely reunited with their parents who are seeking asylum;
Whereas children and parents are separated between 3 different Federal agencies 
        and remain in an indefinite logistical chaos partly due to inadequate 
        interagency communication; and
Whereas the Department of Health and Human Services has currently identified 
        2,047 children in the Department's custody as a result of being taken 
        away from their parents: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Attorney 
        General, and the Secretary of Health and Human Services must 
        immediately establish an interagency Office for Locating and 
        Reuniting Children with Parents;
            (2) the Secretary of Health and Human Services must appoint 
        a Director for the Office to ensure the successful and safe 
        reunification of children with their parents; and
            (3) the Office must move with extraordinary speed and 
        urgency to safely reunify children with their parents.

Whereas the cowboy embodies honesty, integrity, courage, compassion, respect, a 
        strong work ethic, and patriotism;
Whereas the cowboy spirit exemplifies strength of character, sound family 
        values, and good common sense;
Whereas the cowboy archetype transcends ethnicity, gender, geographic 
        boundaries, and political affiliations;
Whereas the cowboy, who lives off the land and works to protect and enhance the 
        environment, is an excellent steward of the land and its creatures;
Whereas cowboy traditions have been a part of American culture for generations;
Whereas the cowboy continues to be an important part of the economy through the 
        work of many thousands of ranchers across the United States who 
        contribute to the economic well-being of every State;
Whereas millions of fans watch professional and working ranch rodeo events 
        annually, making rodeo one of the most-watched sports in the United 
        States;
Whereas membership and participation in rodeo and other organizations that 
        promote and encompass the livelihood of cowboys span every generation 
        and transcend race and gender;
Whereas the cowboy is a central figure in literature, film, and music and 
        occupies a central place in the public imagination;
Whereas the cowboy is an American icon; and
Whereas the ongoing contributions made by cowboys and cowgirls to their 
        communities should be recognized and encouraged: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates July 28, 2018, as ``National Day of the 
        American Cowboy''; and
            (2) encourages the people of the United States to observe

                               RESOLUTION


 
         Designating May 2017 as ``Melanoma Awareness Month''.

Whereas, as of May 2017, there are nearly 1,000,000 people living with melanoma 
        in the United States;
Whereas over 160,000 people of the United States will be diagnosed with melanoma 
        in 2017;
Whereas melanoma is the second-most commonly diagnosed cancer in young adults;
Whereas approximately 90 percent of cases of melanoma can be traced to exposure 
        to ultraviolet rays;
Whereas Congress enacted the Sunscreen Innovation Act (Public Law 113-195) to 
        help bring new, safe sunscreens to the market;
Whereas increasing intermittent sun exposure in childhood and throughout the 
        lifetime of a person is associated with an increased risk of squamous 
        cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, and melanoma;
Whereas 1 blistering sunburn during childhood or adolescence can nearly double 
        the chance that a person develops melanoma later in life, while 5 or 
        more blistering sunburns in late adolescence increases the risk of--

    (1) melanoma by 80 percent; and

    (2) nonmelanoma by 68 percent; and

Whereas research shows that wearing sunscreen and taking other preventive 
        measures can prevent sunburn and reduce the risk of skin cancer and 
        premature aging: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates May 2017 as ``Melanoma Awareness Month'';
            (2) supports the goals and ideals of Melanoma Awareness 
        Month;
            (3) continues to support research for the prevention, 
        detection, and treatment of, and a cure for, melanoma; and
            (4) supports efforts to promote awareness of, and education 
        on, sunsafe behaviors, including the use of sunscreen and sun-
        protective clothing.

Expressing support for the designation of the first Tuesday in June as 
          ``National Cancer Survivor Beauty and Support Day''.

Whereas it is estimated that 1,735,350 new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in

Whereas the lifetime probability of a male or female developing cancer is 1 in

        life;
Whereas the National Cancer Institute reports that there are 15,500,000 cancer 
        survivors in the United States;
Whereas cancer treatments can have severe, prolonged, or permanent side effects, 
        both physical and psychological;
Whereas men, women, and children all have been diagnosed with and battled 
        cancer;
Whereas it is important to recognize the value of support for all men, women, 
        and children cancer survivors and the positive impact support has for 
        both patients and families;
Whereas ``Cancer Survivor Beauty and Support Day'' is a purely volunteer event 
        where thousands of volunteers from the spa, beauty, and related 
        industries freely give their support and services to all cancer 
        survivors;
Whereas ``Cancer Survivor Beauty and Support Day'' has expanded to thousands of 
        salons in all 50 States since its inception in 2003;
Whereas ``Cancer Survivor Beauty and Support Day'' is recognized by both State 
        and local governments;
Whereas ``Cancer Survivor Beauty and Support Day'' is the only event of its 
        kind, with no solicitation of funds either before, during, or after the 
        event; and
Whereas the first Tuesday in June would be an appropriate date to designate as 
        ``National Cancer Survivor Beauty and Support Day'': Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the

                               RESOLUTION


 
    Seeking the return of the USS Pueblo to the United States Navy.

Whereas the USS Pueblo, which was attacked and captured by the Navy of North 
        Korea on January 23, 1968, was the first ship of the United States Navy 
        to be hijacked on the high seas by a foreign military force in more than 
        150 years;
Whereas 1 member of the USS Pueblo crew, Petty Officer Duane Hodges, was killed 
        in the assault, while the other 82 crew members were held in captivity, 
        often under inhumane conditions, for 11 months;
Whereas the USS Pueblo, an intelligence collection auxiliary vessel, was 
        operating in international waters at the time of the capture, and 
        therefore did not violate the territorial waters of North Korea;
Whereas the capture of the USS Pueblo resulted in no reprisals against the 
        Government or people of North Korea and no military action at any time; 
        and
Whereas the USS Pueblo, though still the property of the United States Navy, has 
        been retained by the Government of North Korea for more than 50 years, 
        was subjected to exhibition in the North Korean cities of Wonsan and 
        Hungham, and is now on display in Pyongyang, the capital city of North 
        Korea: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) desires the return of the USS Pueblo to the United 
        States Navy;
            (2) would welcome the return of the USS Pueblo as a sign of 
        good faith from the North Korean people to the American people; 
        and
            (3) directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to 
        transmit copies of this resolution to the President, the 
        Secretary of Defense, and the Secretary of State.
