                               RESOLUTION


 
Recognizing and honoring National Mushroom Day and the contributions of 
     Chester and Berks Counties to the national mushroom industry.

Whereas October 15 is National Mushroom Day;
Whereas, since the cultivation of mushrooms began in France in 1651, the 
        cultivation of mushrooms has been developed and advanced through the 
        hard work of mushroom growers;
Whereas mushrooms are a dietary staple due to their nutritional value;
Whereas, in 1885, a successful florist in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, 
        conceived the idea of growing mushrooms beneath his greenhouse benches, 
        leading to the first dedicated mushroom growing operation in the area;
Whereas over 60 percent of United States mushrooms are now grown in Chester and 
        Berks Counties, Pennsylvania;
Whereas the mushroom farms in Chester County include both large and small farms, 
        including multigeneration family farms, demonstrating the region's 
        support for small businesses and local producers;
Whereas the local mushroom growers meet and collaborate, leading to the 
        innovation that distinguishes the region and its mushroom industry; and
Whereas the mushroom growers and the farmworker community contribute 
        substantially to the local economy, employing nearly 10,000 workers and 
        bringing an estimated $2,700,000,000 into Chester County: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the recognition of National Mushroom Day; and
            (2) honors the region of Chester and Berks Counties, 
        Pennsylvania, for its unparalleled contributions to the 
        national mushroom industry.

  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 
        upon the United States.

                               RESOLUTION


 
               Expressing support for a balanced budget.

Whereas the Federal Government's fiscal trajectory is highly unsustainable and 
        risks triggering a United States financial crisis that could undermine 
        the prosperity of the American people;
Whereas the majority of the American people want to see Congress take action to 
        significantly reduce the Federal budget deficit;
Whereas the national debt now exceeds $23,000,000,000,000 dollars, equivalent to 
        approximately $70,000 for each citizen in America;
Whereas research shows that reducing Government spending rather than raising 
        taxes is the most effective way to reduce the deficit and has 
        historically been correlated with fiscal success around the world;
Whereas studies show that when the Federal Government cuts taxes on American 
        businesses and job creators, they are more likely to hire new workers 
        and make investments;
Whereas reducing Government spending and not increasing taxes directly improves 
        the economy by increasing the confidence that business owners and 
        investors have in the economy;
Whereas the Government can help businesses and the economy succeed by focusing 
        on supporting the private sector rather than imposing heavy taxes on 
        American businesses;
Whereas every increase in spending should be offset with a spending decrease; 
        and
Whereas defense spending is critical to the security of the United States and 
        cannot be forgoed for increases in nondefense discretionary spending: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the debt ceiling should not be raised without 
significant fiscal and spending reforms that would put the United 
States on a path to balance the budget.

Whereas the values of Israelis and Israeli-Americans are shared American values;
Whereas Israeli-Americans bring invaluable skills that promote our economy and

        technologies;
Whereas hundreds of Israeli startups have been brought to the United States;
Whereas the contributions of Israeli-Americans in the fields of high-tech and 
        biotech have been invaluable to the United States;
Whereas Israeli-Americans have helped to form a strong bond between the people 
        of the United States and the people of Israel, reinforcing our shared 
        values and interests; and
Whereas countless Israeli-Americans and Israeli-based companies have enriched 
        the society of the United States, including--

    (1) Israeli-based companies operating in the United States creating 
tens of thousands of jobs in the United States;

    (2) Israeli engineers based in the United States developing the Intel's 
Pentium M chip, which revolutionized the mobile computer world;

    (3) Israeli-American engineer Abraham Karem being the pioneer of the 
unmanned aerial vehicle, and described by The Economist magazine as the man 
who ``created the robotic plane that transformed the way modern warfare is 
waged and continues to pioneer other airborne innovations''; and

    (4) Israeli-American businesswoman Safra Catz, CEO of Oracle, being one 
of the most successful female business executives in the United States: 
Now, therefore, be it

    Resolved, That the House of Representatives affirms that the 
Israeli-American community has contributed immensely to American

  Expressing support for the goals of Stomach Cancer Awareness Month.

Whereas stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, is one of the most

Whereas, in the United States, stomach cancer is more prevalent among racial and

Whereas addiction professionals work across a wide variety of settings including 
        outpatient care centers, mental health and substance use disorder 
        facilities, general medicine and surgical hospitals, psychiatric and 
        substance use disorder hospitals, private practice, clinics, as well as 
        prisons, probation agencies, juvenile detention facilities, halfway 
        houses, detoxification centers and more; and
Whereas addiction professionals are addressing the full range of substance use 
        disorders in our communities across the treatment and recovery 
        continuum, including in the face of the current opioid crisis: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the delivery 
of evidence-based care for substance use disorder by acknowledging the 
contributions of addiction professionals and encourages that recognized 
credentials reflect the requisite knowledge, training, and competencies 
for delivering quality, effective substance use disorder counseling.

 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.

_______________________________________________________________________

                               RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United 
States postal facility network is an asset of significant value and the 
   United States Postal Service should take appropriate measures to 
maintain, modernize and fully utilize the existing post office network 
                          for economic growth.

Whereas the postal facility network is an integral part of universal service and 
        should be modernized to make universal service relevant for the 21st 
        century;
Whereas the closure of post offices in rural communities would create an 
        economic burden for people in the United States that depend on universal 
        service for communication, package services, and non-typical postal 
        services;
Whereas the closure process of post offices does not adequately take into 
        account community input;
Whereas post offices are recognized as secure and trustworthy, and could 
        function as the location for other government services, community 
        events, and emergency services; and
Whereas post offices have become a part of the identity of rural communities, 
        and provide a significant social value: 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 modernize and maintain a post office network.

              Declaring support for Brain Awareness Week.

Whereas more than 1,000 neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, such as 
        schizophrenia, traumatic brain injury, autism and Parkinson's disease 
        affect the lives of nearly 100 million Americans;
Whereas neurological and neurodegenerative diseases are the leading contributors 
        to global disease burden;
Whereas neurological illnesses and mental disorders cost the United States more 
        than $760 billion per year and can only be decreased through improved 
        prevention, treatment, and the development of cures;
Whereas the Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies 
        (BRAIN) Initiative, whose multi-agency, cross-disciplinary work involves 
        private and public entities, including the National Institutes of Health 
        and the National Science Foundation, among others, is promoting research 
        to develop new tools and technologies to revolutionize our understanding 
        of the human brain and create lifesaving breakthroughs; and
Whereas one dollar of research funding for the National Institutes of Health and 
        the National Science Foundation each generates more than two dollars of 
        economic output: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives does hereby declare 
support for Brain Awareness Week and calls upon all Americans to 
recognize the valuable contributions that have been made to date in 
brain and spinal cord research and to support the conduct of this 
critical research in the future.
