Expressing support for the designation of May 1, 2019, as ``Silver Star 
                         Service Banner Day''.

Whereas the Senate has always honored the sacrifices made by the wounded and ill 
        members of the Armed Forces;
Whereas the Silver Star Service Banner has come to represent the members of the 
        Armed Forces and veterans who were wounded or became ill in combat in 
        the wars fought by the United States;
Whereas the Silver Star Families of America was formed to help the people of the 
        United States remember the sacrifices made by the wounded and ill 
        members of the Armed Forces by designing and manufacturing Silver Star 
        Service Banners and Silver Star Flags for that purpose;
Whereas the sole mission of the Silver Star Families of America is to evoke 
        memories of the sacrifices made by members of the Armed Forces and 
        veterans on behalf of the United States through the presence of a Silver 
        Star Service Banner in a window or a Silver Star Flag flying;
Whereas the sacrifices made by members of the Armed Forces and veterans on 
        behalf of the United States should never be forgotten; and
Whereas May 1, 2019, is an appropriate date to designate as ``Silver Star 
        Service Banner Day'': Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) supports the designation of May 1, 2019, as ``Silver 
        Star Service Banner Day''; and
            (2) calls upon the people of the United States to observe 
        Silver Star Service Banner Day with appropriate programs, 
        ceremonies, and activities.

   Designating the week of September 29 through October 5, 2019, as 
                 ``National Community Policing Week''.

Whereas police officers are indispensable members of the community who put their 
        lives on the line to protect others;
Whereas promoting strong relationships founded in trust and mutual respect 
        between law enforcement officers and the communities they serve helps 
        ensure the safe and effective execution of the law;
Whereas law enforcement officers and communities that work together to address 
        public safety concerns can create lasting solutions to difficult 
        challenges;
Whereas a long-term commitment to community policing is necessary to eliminate 
        the underlying causes of crime;
Whereas the advancement of community policing should be supported to ensure that 
        State and local law enforcement agencies have necessary resources; and
Whereas community policing has been recognized as an important tool for 
        improving the relationship between law enforcement officers and the 
        communities they serve: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates the week of September 29 through October 5, 
        2019, as ``National Community Policing Week''; and
            (2) supports community policing and encourages the people 
        of the United States, law enforcement agencies, and elected 
        officials to identify ways in which communities can improve 
        public safety, strengthen relationships, and build trust.

  Expressing the sense of the Senate regarding preconditions for the 
  readmission of the Russian Federation into a reconstituted Group of 
             Eight or participation in the Group of Seven.

Whereas, since 2014, the Russian Federation has illegally occupied Crimea and 
        Donbass, which was condemned in the Senate by passage of Senate 
        Resolution 378 by unanimous consent in the 113th Congress;
Whereas, in March 2014, the Group of Eight suspended the Russian Federation as a 
        direct result of its actions in Ukraine and instead continued as the 
        Group of Seven;
Whereas, since 2014, the Russian Federation has also continued malign attacks on 
        western democracies, including ongoing aggressive cyber and military 
        provocations; and
Whereas the Russian Federation has reportedly offered bounties to kill members 
        of the United States Armed Forces deployed in Afghanistan: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that, as precondition 
for readmission into a reconstituted Group of Eight or participation in 
a Group of Seven proceeding, the Russian Federation must--
            (1) end its illegal occupation of Crimea and Donbass;
            (2) cease its malign activities against the United States 
        and its allies; and
            (3) terminate any bounties against members of the United 
        States Armed Forces.

Whereas, on Kids to Parks Day, individuals from rural and urban areas of the

        neighborhood parks located in their communities;
Whereas communities across the United States offer a variety of natural 
        resources and public land, often with free access, to individuals 
        seeking outdoor recreation;
Whereas the people of the United States, young and old, should be encouraged to

   Commemorating the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center's 50th 
                              Anniversary.

Whereas the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (``FLETC'') was established 
        on July 1, 1970, in response to a need for standard training across 
        Federal law enforcement agencies;
Whereas the FLETC headquarters in Glynco, Georgia, opened in 1975;
Whereas FLETC became a part of the Department of Homeland Security on March 1, 
        2003, pursuant to the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-296);
Whereas, in 2016, Congress passed, and the President signed into law, FLETC's 
        first authorizing legislation, the Federal Law Enforcement Training 
        Centers Reform and Improvement Act of 2015 (P.L. 114-285);
Whereas FLETC provides basic and advanced law enforcement training for 95 
        Federal law enforcement agencies and to State, local, and Tribal law 
        enforcement agencies nationwide;
Whereas FLETC includes training locations in Glynco, Georgia, Artesia, New 
        Mexico, Charleston, South Carolina, and Cheltenham, Maryland;
Whereas the mission of FLETC is to prepare the Federal law enforcement community 
        to safeguard the people of the United States, our homeland, and our 
        values through strategic partnerships; and
Whereas FLETC trains nearly 70,000 law enforcement personnel annually in 872 
        training programs and maintains more than 3,400 acres of training 
        ground: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) recognizes the 50th anniversary of the Federal Law 
        Enforcement Training Center; and
            (2) recognizes the staff, students, and leadership of the

Designating the week of June 3 through June 9, 2019, as ``Hemp History 
                                Week''.

Whereas Hemp History Week will be held from June 3 through June 9, 2019;
Whereas the goals of Hemp History Week are to commemorate the historical 
        relevance of industrial hemp in the United States and to promote the 
        full growth potential of the industrial hemp industry;
Whereas industrial hemp is an agricultural commodity that has been used for 
        centuries to produce many innovative industrial and consumer products, 
        including soap, fabric, textiles, construction materials, clothing, 
        paper, cosmetics, food, and beverages;
Whereas the global market for hemp is estimated to consist of more than 25,000 
        products;

        production of other retail products is estimated at approximately 
        $76,000,000 annually;
Whereas the United States hemp industry estimates that the annual market value 
        of hemp retail sales in the United States is more than $1,000,000,000;
Whereas, despite the legitimate uses of hemp, agricultural producers of the 
        United States were for decades prohibited under law from growing hemp;
Whereas, in December 2018, Congress established a legal framework for 
        agricultural producers to cultivate, grow, and sell hemp in the United 
        States;
Whereas the United States is the largest consumer of hemp products in the world; 
        and
Whereas industrial hemp holds great potential to bolster the agricultural 
        economy of the United States: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates the week of June 3 through June 9, 2019, as 
        ``Hemp History Week'';

                               RESOLUTION


 
           Designating June 2019 as ``Great Outdoors Month''.

Whereas hundreds of millions of people in the United States participate in 
        outdoor recreation annually;
Whereas Congress enacted the Outdoor Recreation Jobs and Economic Impact Act of 
        2016 (Public Law 114-249; 130 Stat. 999) to assess and analyze the 
        outdoor recreation economy of the United States and the effects 
        attributable to the outdoor recreation economy on the overall economy of 
        the United States;
Whereas the Outdoor Recreation Satellite Account released in September 2018 by 
        the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the United States Department of 
        Commerce shows that outdoor recreation contributed more than 
        $412,000,000,000 of current-dollar gross domestic product to the economy 
        of the United States in 2016, comprising approximately 2.2 percent of 
        the current-dollar gross domestic product;
Whereas the Outdoor Recreation Satellite Account shows that the outdoor 
        recreation sector experienced faster growth in real gross output, 
        compensation, and employment than the overall economy in 2016, while 
        also providing 4,546,000 jobs across the country;
Whereas the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2019 (Public Law 116-6) 
        encouraged the Department of Commerce to continue its work with the 
        Outdoor Recreation Satellite Account;
Whereas regular outdoor recreation is associated with positive health outcomes 
        and better quality of life;
Whereas outdoor recreation is part of the national heritage of the United 
        States; and
Whereas June 2019 is an appropriate month to designate as ``Great Outdoors 
        Month'' to provide an opportunity to celebrate the importance of the 
        great outdoors: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates June 2019 as ``Great Outdoors Month''; and
            (2) encourages all people in the United States to recreate 
        in the great outdoors in June 2019 and year-round.

  Designating September 2019 as ``National Childhood Cancer Awareness 
                                Month''.

Whereas each year more than 15,000 children under the age of 19 in the United 
        States, and more than 300,000 children globally, are diagnosed with 
        cancer;
Whereas every year more than 1,700 children under the age of 19 in the United 
        States lose their lives to cancer;
Whereas childhood cancer is the leading cause of death from disease and the 
        second overall leading cause of death for children in the United States;
Whereas the 5-year survival rate for children with cancer has increased from 58 
        percent in the mid-1970s to 84 percent in 2019, representing significant 
        improvement from previous decades; and
Whereas cancer occurs regularly and randomly and spares no racial or ethnic 
        group, socioeconomic class, or geographic region: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates September 2019, as ``National Childhood 
        Cancer Awareness Month'';
            (2) requests that the Federal Government, States, 
        localities, and nonprofit organizations observe the month with 
        appropriate programs and activities, with the goal of 
        increasing public knowledge of the risks of cancer; and
            (3) recognizes the human toll of cancer and pledges to make 
        the prevention and cure of cancer a public health priority.
