Expressing support for efforts across the country to count every legal 
     vote and to investigate and punish election fraud in the 2020 
                         Presidential election.

Whereas republican governments are chosen through free elections by eligible 
        citizens;
Whereas over 150,000,000 Americans participated in an election to choose our 
        next President on November 3, 2020;
Whereas serious allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 election have been made 
        in States like Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, Arizona, and Nevada;
Whereas voting discrepancies and last-minute rule changes outside of the normal 
        legislative process cast doubt on the integrity of the vote count, 
        including the failure to verify signatures on mail-in-ballots;
Whereas allegations of voter fraud have the potential to undermine popular faith 
        in our Government and the President who will be inaugurated on January 
        20, 2021; and
Whereas it is necessary to investigate every allegation of election fraud to 
        reassure the public and the world that the President was elected in a 
        free and fair election: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports efforts across the country to count every 
        legal vote and to investigate and punish election fraud in the 
        2020 Presidential election;
            (2) calls upon all Members to support all electoral 
        investigations until a fair and accurate count is verified; and
            (3) encourages neither President Donald Trump nor former 
        Vice President Joseph Biden to concede until all investigations 
        of alleged fraud are completed.

Whereas, in 1968, the 151st Infantry Regiment of the Indiana National Guard was

        United States, and the many that did not return home, the 
        United States was preserved and will continue to prosper.

Whereas the Hmong New Year is traditionally a time to give thanks to ancestral

Whereas Hmong New Year celebrations traditionally include song, dance, food, and

Whereas Hmong Americans across the United States celebrate the New Year on 
        weekends from October to December; and
Whereas Hmong New Year celebrations are a significant cultural tradition in many

        celebrating this occasion; and
            (3) wishes Hmong Americans and all individuals who observe

from 2017 to 2018;

Whereas the scaling of clean energy is essential to reducing harmful pollution;
Whereas clean energy jobs are inherently local, contribute to the growth of 
        local economies, and cannot be outsourced due to the on-site nature of 
        construction, installation, and maintenance; and
Whereas innovative clean energy solutions and clean energy jobs are part of the 
        energy future of the United States: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the designation of ``National Clean Energy 
        Week'';
            (2) encourages individuals and organizations across the 
        United States to support commonsense solutions that address the 
        economic, environmental, and energy needs of the United States 
        in the 21st century;
            (3) encourages the Federal Government, States, 
        municipalities, and individuals to invest in clean, low-
        emitting energy technologies; and
            (4) recognizes the role of entrepreneurs and small 
        businesses in ensuring the energy leadership of the United 
        States in the global marketplace and supporting low-cost, 
        clean, and reliable energy in the United States.

Resolving that jurisdictions seeking to dismantle or reduce funding for 
the jurisdiction's police force should not unduly burden residents who 
                       seek to defend themselves.

Whereas the killing of George Floyd was a horrific and despicable act;
Whereas racism in any form is wrong and should not be tolerated;
Whereas adequate and accountable police departments are vital to helping people 
        to defend themselves and their property; and
Whereas the right to defend oneself is a God-given natural right enshrined in 
        the Constitution and upheld in English common law and recent Supreme 
        Court cases: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That--
            (1) any jurisdiction in the United States, which seeks to 
        dismantle or reduce funding for a police force, should 
        undertake a review of its local rules to ensure such rules do 
        not place an undue burden on its residents who seek to defend 
        themselves, including the legal purchase of a firearm and any 
        training services such individuals choose;
            (2) such a review should be based on the standards set 
        forth by the Supreme Court in the cases District of Columbia v. 
        Heller and McDonald v. Chicago, which confirmed the Second 
        Amendment to the Constitution to be an individual right and 
        that no law can prohibit an individual from possessing and 
        using a firearm in the home for self-defense; and
            (3) any jurisdiction which seeks to dismantle or reduce 
        funding for police agencies must ensure they remove rules that 
        hinder individual gun ownership or access to firearms.

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

        salmon;
Whereas people 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
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives recognizes the 
International Year of the Salmon, a unique, hemispheric-level 
collaboration bringing people together in order to ensure that healthy

  Expressing support for designation of February 4, 2019, as National 
                         Cancer Prevention Day.

Whereas National Cancer Prevention Day is a day to remind us that when looking 
        at cancer we need to look at prevention and reducing risks for human 
        health and the environment;
Whereas when we work to prevent cancer risks, it impacts human health, the 
        environment, and the economy;
Whereas cancer is one of the leading causes of death around the world and has 
        touched the lives of nearly everyone, either directly or indirectly;
Whereas cancer is the cause of nearly 1 out of every 4 deaths in the United 
        States;
Whereas in 2019, there will be an estimated 1,762,450 new cancer cases diagnosed 
        and 606,880 cancer deaths in the United States;
Whereas cancer is the second most common cause of death among children ages 1 to 
        14 years in the United States after accidents, and in 2019 an estimated 
        11,060 children in this age group will be diagnosed with cancer and 
        1,190 will die from it; and
Whereas February 4, 2019, would be an appropriate date to designate as Cancer 
        Prevention Day: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the designation of National Cancer Prevention 
        Day;
            (2) recognizes all efforts to raise the awareness for the 
        reduction of cancer risks; and
            (3) recognizes the devastating effect cancer has on 
        families and wishes to expand knowledge, encourage early 
        detection, and work with friends in the medical and scientific 
        fields to put an end to this deadly disease.

Expressing support for the designation of September 2020 as Peripheral 
                    Artery Disease Awareness Month.

Whereas peripheral artery disease affects nearly 20,000,000 Americans, including 
        an estimated 200,000 Americans who are from disproportionately minority 
        communities;
Whereas peripheral artery disease is a chronic condition that causes narrowing 
        or blockage of blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to the 
        legs;
Whereas the primary cause of peripheral artery disease is the buildup of plaque 
        in the arteries;
Whereas African Americans are twice as likely than White Americans to be 
        diagnosed with peripheral artery disease and up to three times as likely 
        than White Americans to have an amputation;
Whereas if not properly diagnosed, peripheral artery disease can lead to 
        nontraumatic lower limb amputations;
Whereas unnecessary amputations drastically reduce the quality of life for 
        peripheral artery disease patients; and
Whereas educating people on the risks of peripheral artery disease and 
        encouraging early screenings are crucial to preventing unnecessary 
        amputations: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the goals and ideals of Peripheral Artery 
        Disease Awareness Month; and
            (2) encourages the people of the United States to observe 
        the month with appropriate awareness and educational 
        activities.
