    Honoring one million deaths from COVID-19 in the United States.

Whereas, on May 12, 2022, the United States reached 1,000,000 confirmed lives 
        lost due to COVID-19;
Whereas the first laboratory-confirmed case of COVID-19 in the United States was 
        recorded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on 
        January 20, 2020;
Whereas the first known death from COVID-19 in the United States occurred in 
        February 2020;
Whereas in the months following the first recorded death, the COVID-19 pandemic 
        has impacted individuals, families, and communities across the United 
        States;
Whereas estimates report that the death toll from COVID-19 has increased the 
        number of orphans in the United States by nearly 200,000 children;
Whereas scientific breakthroughs have been effective at reducing the COVID-19 
        death toll; and
Whereas it is recognized that mitigation efforts can reduce the number of deaths 
        due to COVID-19 and save lives: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) recognizes and mourns the 1,000,000 known lives lost in 
        the United States from COVID-19; and
            (2) honors the memory of the deceased and offers

 Supporting the goals of Overdose Awareness Day by lowering the United 
  States flag to half-staff on all Federal buildings the 31st day of 
                           August each year.

Whereas more than 750,000 individuals in the United States have died from a drug 
        overdose since 1999;
Whereas substance use disorder and drug overdose affect all socioeconomic 
        groups, racial and ethnic groups, geographical regions, and ages;
Whereas substance use disorder is a chronic disease and recognizing it as such 
        decreases stigma and acknowledges that substance use may be beyond an 
        individual's control;
Whereas overdose deaths are preventable, and lives can be saved through 
        awareness, prevention, intervention, treatment, and recovery support;
Whereas overdose deaths claimed more than 81,000 American lives last year, and 
        the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to the acceleration of overdose 
        deaths;
Whereas communities across the Nation have been pained by substance use disorder 
        through the premature loss of lives and the stigma associated with drug-
        related fatalities; and
Whereas numerous States across the Nation have lowered their State flags in 
        recognition of Overdose Awareness Day: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives supports the 
recognition of Overdose Awareness Day in the United States of America 
and that Federal buildings therein be encouraged to lower their flags 
to half-staff to support awareness of overdoses.

  Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that fentanyl-
   related substances are a weapon of mass destruction and should be 
                          classified as such.

Whereas China remains the primary source of fentanyl precursors and fentanyl-
        related substances trafficked through international mail and into the 
        United States;
Whereas transnational criminal organizations in Mexico are rapidly increasing 
        the flow of fentanyl-related substances into the United States over the 
        porous Southern United States border;
Whereas India has emerged as a growing supplier of precursor chemicals and 
        fentanyl-related substances;
Whereas, in July 2018, the Federal Bureau of Investigation Weapons of Mass 
        Destruction Directorate assessed that ``fentanyl is very likely a viable 
        option for a chemical weapons attack by extremists or criminals'';
Whereas fentanyl and fentanyl-related substances trafficking operations are 
        growing in sophistication according to the Drug Enforcement 
        Administration;
Whereas a single kilogram of fentanyl or a fentanyl-related substance can kill 
        500,000 individuals;
Whereas an estimated 71,238 citizens of the United States have lost their lives 
        from a synthetic opioid overdose in 2021 according to the Centers for 
        Disease Control and Prevention;
Whereas fentanyl is the leading driver of the United States ongoing opioid 
        crisis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; and
Whereas Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody has sent a letter to President 
        Biden urging him to classify illicit fentanyl as a weapon of mass 
        destruction: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that 
the President should classify synthetic fentanyl-related substances as 
a weapon of mass destruction.
