          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.

                               RESOLUTION


 
       Designating April 2022 as ``National Native Plant Month''.

Whereas native plants are indigenous species that have evolved and occur 
        naturally in a particular region, ecosystem, and habitat;
Whereas there are more than 17,000 native plant species in the United States, 
        which include trees, shrubs, vines, grasses, and wildflowers;
Whereas native plants help prevent flooding, drought, and erosion and can help 
        restore damaged ecosystems;
Whereas native plants provide shelter as well as nectar, pollen, and seeds that 
        serve as food for native butterflies, insects, birds, and other wildlife 
        in ways that non-native plants cannot;
Whereas more than 200 of the native plant species in the United States are 
        estimated to have been lost since the early 19th century;
Whereas habitat loss and degradation, extreme weather events, and invasive 
        species have contributed to the decline of native plants in the United 
        States; and
Whereas native plants are essential components of resilient ecosystems and our 
        natural heritage: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates April 2022 as ``National Native Plant 
        Month''; and
            (2) recognizes the benefits of native plants to the 
        environment and economy of the United States.

        Aden witnessed a car crash into a lake and, without concern for his own 
        safety, jumped into the water to assist the driver;
Whereas Aden exhibited honor in this selfless act for a stranger;
Whereas the lives of both Aden and the driver of the vehicle were tragically cut 
        short;
Whereas Aden brought joy to all who knew him;
Whereas Aden was a skilled pianist and aspired to become a neurosurgeon;
Whereas, in recognition of Aden's selfless and heroic act, on May 10, 2022, 
        Mayor Michael Udine posthumously awarded Aden with the Broward County 
        Medal of Valor; and
Whereas May 10 will now be Aden Perry Day in Broward County: Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) honors the life and memory of Aden Spencer Perry; and
            (2) offers heartfelt condolences to the family, loved ones, 
        and friends of Aden Perry, and recognizes that Aden's spirit 
        lives on through them and selfless acts towards strangers in 
        need.

                           November 17, 2022

    Mr. Young (for himself, Mr. Cardin, Mr. Braun, and Mr. Warnock) 
 submitted the following resolution; which was considered and agreed to

_______________________________________________________________________

                               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 2022, an estimated--

    (1) 26,380 cases of stomach cancer will be diagnosed in the United 
States; and

    (2) 11,090 individuals in the United States will die from stomach 
cancer;

Whereas the estimated 5-year survival rate for stomach cancer is only 32.4 
        percent, and when diagnosed at a late, or distant, stage, the 5-year 
        survival rate is just 6 percent;
Whereas, in the United States, stomach cancer is more prevalent among racial and 
        ethnic minorities;
Whereas initial diagnosis of stomach cancer is often delayed because up to 80 
        percent of patients are asymptomatic during early stages;
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 2022 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


 
      Designating August 1, 2022, as ``Gold Star Children's Day''.

Whereas the recognition of Gold Star Families in the United States dates back to 
        World War I, when the families of fallen service members displayed a 
        service flag in the window of their homes with a gold star;
Whereas, in 1936, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law legislation 
        designating the last Sunday of September as ``Gold Star Mother's Day'', 
        a national annual observance to honor the mothers of fallen service 
        members;
Whereas, since 2010, the Senate each year has honored Gold Star Spouses by 
        resolution on April 5, recognizing the unique sacrifices made by the 
        spouses of fallen service members;
Whereas thousands of sons and daughters have lost a parent who served in the 
        Armed Forces and also deserve national recognition for the burden and 
        legacy they carry; and
Whereas, in 2022, the Senate honored Gold Star Children for the first time, 
        recognizing the sons and daughters of service members who were killed 
        while deployed in areas of hostility, as part of the national debt owed 
        to all those who have shared in the sacrifice of military service: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) designates August 1, 2022, as ``Gold Star Children's 
        Day'';
            (2) honors the sacrifices and hardships of the children of 
        fallen service members; and
            (3) encourages the people of the United States to observe 
        Gold Star Children's Day in support of the children of the 
        fallen men and women of the Armed Forces of the United States.
