101st Congress 
An Act 
To amend the Nationed Trails System Act to designate the route from Selma to 
Montgomery for study for potential addition to the national trails system. 
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the "Selma to Montgomery National 
Trail Study Act of 1989". 
SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
The Congress finds that: 
(1) The march from Selma to Montgomery led to the passage 
of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which achieved the legal right 
to vote for all Americans. 
(2) Events associated with the march from Selma to Montgom-
ery and from what came to be known as "Bloody Sunday" sent 
shock waves around the world, raised the Nation's conscious-
ness and convinced political leaders that the time had come for 
voting rights legislation. 
(3) The designation of the route of the march from Selma to 
Montgomery as a national historic trail will serve as a reminder 
of the right and responsibility of all Americans to fully partici-
pate in the election processes. It will serve as a reminder that 
we must be ever vigilant in securing our right to vote. It will 
also give long overdue recognition to the men and women who 
have sacrificed so much for, and dedicated their lives to, voting 
rights for all Americans. 
SEC. 3. DESIGNATION OF TRAIL FOR STUDY. 
Section 5(c) of the National Trails System Act (82 Stat. 919; 16

Whereas Article I of the United Nations Charter establishes the 
United Nations as "a center for harmonizing the actions of 
nations"; 
Whereas on November 10, 1990, fifteen years will have passed since 
the adoption of United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3379

acteristic of many national groups in the modern world; 
Whereas United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3379 has had 
as its overt purpose the delegitimation of the State of Israel;

Whereas United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3379 is viola-
