Designating April 26, 1992, through May 2, 1992, as "National Crime Victims' 
[H.J. Res. 466] 
Rights Week". 
Whereas almost 35,000,000 individuals in the United States are 
victimized by crime each year, with 6,000,000 falling prey to 
violence; 
Whereas the victims of violent crime need and deserve quaUty 
programs and services to help them recover from the devastating 
psychological, physical, and emotional hardships resulting from 
their victimization; 
Whereas 1992 marks the 20th anniversary of the combined efforts 
of crime victims, victim service providers, criminal justice of&cials, 
and concerned citizens to make victims' rights and services a 
reality in the Nation, and the 10th anniversary of the historic 
passage of the Victim and Witness Protection Act of 1982 by 
the Congress; 
Whereas over the past 2 decades the road to justice for the victims 
of crime has been paved with the commitment, perseverance, 
and spirit of millions of victims who have proudly carried the 
banner of 
justice in our Nation; and 
Whereas all Americans should join together to fight the continuing 
threat of crime and victimization by committing their individual 
and collective resources to crime prevention and victim services: 
Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled. That April 26, 1992, 
through May 2, 1992, is designated as "National Crime Victims' 
Rights Week". The President is authorized and requested to issue

Whereas public employees at every level of government faithfully 
serve their fellow Americ£uis, and there are now nine million 
employees in city and county government, four million employees 
in State government, and over four million Federal civilian and 
military employees; 
Whereas Americans £ire aware of the Taany contributions public

that run the gamut from astronauts to zoologists, including sci-
^ 
entists, police officers, teachers, doctors, forest rangers, engineers, 
food inspectors, researchers, and foreign service agents, among 
others; 
Whereas the Nation should value a professionsd civil service whose 
highest principle is one of patriotism, whose foremost commitment 
is to excellence, and whose experience and expertise are a national 
resource to be used and respected; 
Whereas the millions of workers who serve the Nation are men 
and women of knowledge, abihty, and integrity who deserve to 
be recognized for their dedicated service; and 
Whereas designating a week to honor these employees will provide 
a dual opportunity to pay tribute to our public employees and 
to inform the American people about the scope and importance 
of public service, including the range of employment opportimities 
available to our young people: Now, therefore, be it
