IV 117th CONGRESS 1st Session H. RES. 855 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES December 14, 2021 Mr. Stauber (for himself, Mr. Newhouse , Mr. Pfluger , Mr. Young , Mr. Amodei , Mr. McKinley , Mr. Gosar , Mr. Griffith , Mr. Bost , Mr. Keller , Mr. Meuser , Mr. Lamborn , Mr. Stewart , Ms. Herrell , Mr. Mooney , Mr. Tiffany , Mrs. Fischbach , Mr. Rodney Davis of Illinois , Mrs. Boebert , Ms. Cheney , Mr. Emmer , Mr. LaMalfa , Mr. Norman , Mr. Fulcher , and Mr. Bucshon ) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Education and Labor RESOLUTION Expressing support for designation of the first week of December 2022 as National United States Miners Week.

Whereas December 6 was established by Congress in 2009 to honor the hard work and commitment of miners in the United States; Whereas America’s mining men and women are foundational to modern economies and are necessary for a high quality of life for all citizens; Whereas the critical minerals, coal, and other raw materials harvested by American miners out of domestic mines produce more than $82 billion in raw materials annually; Whereas the critical minerals, coal, and other raw materials unearthed by miners are crucial to secure supply chains needed for steel, roads, houses, cars, smartphones, ventilators, wind turbines, solar panels, and everything else in our world that is not grown; Whereas America’s miners mine or support other industries in all 50 States; Whereas there are more than 500,000 directly employed miners in America, supporting another 1.8 million jobs in manufacturing, engineering, and environmental sciences; Whereas each miner in America indirectly supports an additional 3 jobs in spinoff industries such as health care, hospitality, education, and others, and are located in largely rural communities; Whereas America’s miners support billions in State and Federal royalty revenues, funding education, child care, and diversifying economic development in their communities; and Whereas America would rely more on countries like Russia, China, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and others who rely on child and slave labor to produce minerals needed for modern life if it weren’t for American miners: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives— (1) supports the work of America’s mining men and women; and (2) recognizes the importance of America’s miners in securing our domestic supply chains.
IV 117th CONGRESS 1st Session H. RES. 856 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES December 14, 2021 Ms. Wild (for herself and Mr. Fitzpatrick ) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce RESOLUTION Expressing support for the designation of National Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome Awareness Day .

Whereas amplified musculoskeletal pain syndrome (in this preamble referred to as AMPS ) is a medical condition that causes individuals to experience an abnormal pain reflex that causes constriction of blood vessels, bones, and skin, which deprives muscles of appropriate oxygenation and results in acid buildup; Whereas AMPS amplifies a mild pain signal into an extremely painful signal; Whereas the 3 main causes of AMPS are psychological stress, injury, and illness; Whereas there are numerous types of AMPS, including complex regional pain syndrome, fibromyalgia, myofascial pain syndrome, neuropathic pain, psychogenic pain, and reflex neurovascular dystrophy; Whereas amplified pain in children is not well studied but is known to include localized pain and diffuse pain and is estimated to affect 2 percent to 6 percent of children; Whereas 6 to 12 percent of children have fibromyalgia and 87 percent of children that meet fibromyalgia criteria are female; Whereas 80 percent of children with AMPS are preadolescent or adolescent girls and the typical patient is a teenage girl with a pain rating of 10 out of 10 ; Whereas symptoms can occur acutely or take weeks to develop and may include pain in one or multiple limbs, pain throughout the whole body or in the abdomen, headaches, skin temperature changes, skin color changes, swelling of the affected extremity, vascular changes, conversions, and allodynia; Whereas AMPS is difficult to diagnose and patients often see multiple specialists and are prescribed a variety of unsuccessful medications, procedures, and surgeries to treat their pain, which perpetuates the symptoms of AMPS and burdens families with additional health care costs; Whereas pediatric amplified pain is being diagnosed with greater frequency but has no known cure; Whereas once diagnosed, treatment and therapy focused on aerobic exercise, physical and occupational therapy, stress management, and counseling have proven to be more effective than the administration of pain management medications and more invasive procedures; Whereas the treatment goal is to restore function and return a child to the child’s prior functional level at school, in sports, and in leisure activities; and Whereas when patients are in treatment focused on aerobic exercise, physical and occupational therapy, and stress management and counseling, patients see a significant reduction in their pain according to published studies: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives— (1) recognizes amplified musculoskeletal pain syndrome ( AMPS ) and the effects it has on those who are afflicted, particularly the minor population; and (2) supports the designation of National Amplified Musculoskeletal Pain Syndrome Awareness Day .

Whereas fibroids may cause significant morbidity through their presence in the uterus and pelvic cavity, causing significant pelvic pain, abnormal uterine bleeding, reproductive dysfunction, miscarriages, and even infertility; Whereas the pain, discomfort, stress, and other physical and emotional symptoms of living with fibroids may significantly interfere with a woman’s quality of life, compromising her ability to function normally, work, or care for her family, and may lead to more severe health and wellness issues; Whereas uterine fibroids are the most prevalent medical condition affecting women, with an estimated 30 percent of women developing a uterine fibroid by age 35, and 80 percent of women developing a uterine fibroid by age 50; Whereas the exact number of affected women is unknown, as early detection and diagnosis are difficult because only 1 out of 4 women who have a uterine fibroid exhibit symptoms severe enough to require treatment; Whereas the overall incidence of uterine fibroids is estimated to disproportionately impact Black and Hispanic women, who also experience more severe symptoms, resulting in an incidence rate that is 3 times greater in women with Black ancestry and 2 times greater in Hispanic women compared to Caucasian women; Whereas a hysterectomy, or removal of the uterus, is among the most common surgical treatments for uterine fibroids, and more than 200,000 hysterectomies are performed each year to treat uterine fibroids, at an estimated annual cost of more than $2,000,000,000; Whereas uterine fibroids were estimated to cost the United States $5,900,000,000 to $34,400,000,000 annually with an estimated annual lost work cost of $1,600,000,000 to $17,200,000,000 through absenteeism and short-term disability in women ages 25 to 54; and Whereas public awareness and education campaigns on uterine fibroids prevention, screening, and symptoms are held during the month of July each year: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives— (1) supports the goals and ideals of Uterine Fibroids Awareness Month; (2) recognizes the disparity in incidence rates for Black and Hispanic uterine fibroid patients; (3) recognizes the need for greater research, treatment, and care options regarding uterine leiomyoma; and (4) encourages the President to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the month with appropriate awareness and educational activities.

That the House of Representatives— (1) supports the designation of National School Choice Week ; (2) congratulates students, parents, teachers, and school leaders from K–12 education environments of all varieties for their persistence, achievements, dedication, and contributions to society in the United States; (3) encourages all parents, during National School Choice Week, to learn more about the education options available to them; and (4) encourages the people of the United States to hold appropriate programs, events, and activities during National School Choice Week to raise public awareness of the benefits of opportunity in education.
IV 117th CONGRESS 2d Session H. RES. 883 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES January 20, 2022 Mr. Budd (for himself and Mr. Norman ) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce RESOLUTION Recognizing National Sanctity of Human Life Day.

Whereas life is inherently valuable at every stage and should be protected; Whereas condoning abortion based on the sex or a disability of a child in the womb is barbaric and should be condemned; Whereas a child in the womb is a unique person with his or her own genetic code and is a different being than the mother; Whereas pro-life crisis pregnancy centers provide millions of dollars in free care annually to women seeking alternatives to abortion; Whereas the pro-life movement has made a concerted effort to care for women, children, and families not just during pregnancy, but afterwards as well; Whereas the abortion industry deceives women about the biological realities of children in the womb, falsely claiming that children in the womb are clumps of cells ; Whereas, as early as eight weeks, a child in the womb begins developing hands, feet, and teeth, and neural pathways are formed during this time that will last through the child’s entire life; Whereas a growing body of scientific literature indicates that children in the womb feel pain prior to 15 weeks gestation, and nearly every major organ is present and functional by then; Whereas a child in the womb has a heart that will beat roughly 15,000,000 times by 15 weeks; Whereas abortion not only ends the life of a human being in the womb, but abortion also poses serious health risks and complications for mothers; Whereas the abortion industry does not disclose the emotional and psychological toll a woman will face when ending a pregnancy through abortion; Whereas, across the world, elective abortions past 20 weeks are permissible in only a handful of nations such as North Korea, China, and unfortunately, the United States; Whereas since Roe v. Wade was decided on January 22, 1973, an estimated 62 million lives have been lost to abortion; Whereas, in recent years, States across the country have taken the bold and noble stand to provide protections for the unborn and ensure their right to live; Whereas just governments have an obligation to protect vulnerable and innocent children, including voiceless children in the womb; Whereas failing to protect the rights of children in the womb is a failure to live up to the ideals found in the Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness ; Whereas abortion is a moral wrong that has no place in American society; Whereas we mourn the suffering and loss of life since Roe v.
