Whereas salmon are a vital resource, providing communities with cultural and

        wildlife depend on;
Whereas salmon can be vulnerable to impacts from human interference, including 
        development pressures and climate change;

        salmon;
Whereas people from all walks of life can learn about the value of salmon and 
        support salmon conservation; and
Whereas salmon migrations span national boundaries, and collaborating and 
        sharing knowledge across borders is critical to sustaining salmon 
        stocks: Now, therefore, be it

Mr. Braun submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the

                               RESOLUTION


 
Affirming the importance of the long-term solvency of the Highway Trust 
                                 Fund.

Whereas, in July 2019, the public debt of the United States was more than 
        $22,000,000,000,000, increasing each year by a Federal budget deficit of 
        nearly $1,000,000,000,000;
Whereas the Federal Government is facing shortfalls in several Federal trust 
        funds, including the Highway Trust Fund, which is expected to reach 
        insolvency in July 2021;
Whereas the infrastructure of the United States needs substantial investment in 
        order to continue supporting the growing economy of the United States;
Whereas, according to a report published in 2015 by the Federal Highway 
        Administration, 20 percent of the Federal-aid highways in the United 
        States were in poor condition;
Whereas short-term extensions providing funding to the Highway Trust Fund do not 
        provide the certainty needed by States and local governments to enter 
        into long-term roadbuilding contracts; and
Whereas short-term extensions providing funding to the Highway Trust Fund, based 
        solely on deficit spending, exacerbate the problem described in the 
        preceding whereas clause and only serve to postpone solving the problem: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that--
            (1) the Highway Trust Fund should achieve long-term 
        solvency through user fees; and
            (2) any spending on Federal highway programs during the 
        next reauthorization period that exceeds current Highway Trust 
        Fund revenues and balances should be fully offset.

                           November 21, 2019

_______________________________________________________________________

                               RESOLUTION


 
  Expressing support for the goals of Stomach Cancer Awareness Month.

Whereas stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, is one of the most 
        difficult cancers to detect in the early stages of the disease, which 
        contributes to high mortality rates;
Whereas stomach cancer occurs when cancer cells develop in the lining of the 
        stomach;
Whereas stomach cancer is the fifth most common type of cancer worldwide;
Whereas, in 2019--

    (1) an estimated 27,510 cases of stomach cancer will be diagnosed in 
the United States; and

    (2) an estimated 11,140 people in the United States will die from 
stomach cancer;

Whereas the estimated 5-year survival rate for stomach cancer is only 31.5 
        percent;
Whereas, in the United States, stomach cancer is more prevalent among racial and 
        ethnic minorities;
Whereas increased awareness of, and education about, stomach cancer among 
        patients and health care providers could improve timely recognition of 
        stomach cancer symptoms;
Whereas more research into early diagnosis, screening, and treatment for stomach 
        cancer is needed; and
Whereas November 2019 is an appropriate month to observe Stomach Cancer 
        Awareness Month: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) supports the goals of Stomach Cancer Awareness Month;
            (2) supports efforts to increase awareness of, and 
        education about, stomach cancer among the general public of the 
        United States;
            (3) recognizes the need for additional research into early 
        diagnosis, screening, and treatment for stomach cancer; and
            (4) encourages States, territories, and localities of the 
        United States to support the goals of Stomach Cancer Awareness 
        Month.

                               RESOLUTION


 
          Expressing support for health and wellness coaches.

Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers chronic 
        diseases to be ``the public health challenge of the 21st century'';
Whereas decades of research have linked lifestyle factors, such as inactivity, 
        poor diet, tobacco smoking, and sustained stress, with increased risk 
        for major illnesses and death;
Whereas the costs associated with the treatment of many chronic diseases are 
        high and often preventable;
Whereas a health and wellness coach is a new type of healthcare worker who 
        serves as a supportive mentor to motivate individuals to make positive 
        health choices and move toward specific wellness goals;
Whereas health and wellness coaches support clients in achieving good health--

    (1) based on the goals of each client; and

    (2) in a manner consistent with the treatment plan recommended by a 
healthcare provider for the client;

Whereas health and wellness coaches assist clients in making healthy lifestyle 
        changes by encouraging them--

    (1) to use insight;

    (2) to use personal strengths and resources;

    (3) to set goals;

    (4) to create action steps; and

    (5) to hold themselves accountable;

Whereas health and wellness coaches play a vital role in improving individual 
        wellness that complements, and does not replace, the work of healthcare 
        professionals; and
Whereas an increasing number of studies demonstrate how health and wellness 
        coaches help--

    (1) to improve individual health and wellness; and

    (2) to reduce healthcare costs: Now, therefore, be it

    Resolved, That the Senate supports the efforts of the health and 
wellness coaches of the United States in their important work to 
improve the health and wellness of the people of the United States.
