 Whereas American women of every race, class, and ethnic background have made historic contributions to the growth and strength of our Nation in countless recorded and unrecorded ways; Whereas American women have played and continue to play a critical economic, cultural, and social role in every sphere of the life of the Nation by constituting a significant portion of the labor force working inside and outside of the home; Whereas American women have played a unique role throughout the history of the Nation by providing the majority of the volunteer labor force of the Nation; Whereas American women were particularly important in the establishment of early charitable, philanthropic, and cultural institutions in our Nation; Whereas American women of every race, class, and ethnic background served as early leaders in the forefront of every major progressive social change movement; Whereas American women have been leaders not only in securing their own rights of suffrage and equal opportunity, but also in the abolitionist movement, the emancipation movement, the industrial labor movement, the civil rights movement, and other movements, especially the peace movement, which create a more fair and just society for all; and Whereas despite these contributions, the role of American women in history has been consistently overlooked and undervalued in the literature, teaching, and study of American history: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Joint Resolution To commend the Governments of Israel and Egypt on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the Treaty of Peace between Israel and Egypt

Mar. 29, 1989

[S. J. Res. 87]

 Whereas in Washington, District of Columbia, on March 26, 1979, the Governments of Israel and Egypt, with the support and encouragement of the United States, signed a treaty of peace formally ending their state of war; Whereas this treaty, the only peace agreement between Israel and an Arab nation, remains a crucial element in fostering peace in the Middle East; Whereas under terms of this historic document Israel and Egypt agreed to end the state of war between them, Israel fully with­drew its military forces and civilian settlements from the Sinai Peninsula, and Israel and Egypt established formal diplomatic relations, including the exchange of ambassadors; Whereas the establishment of peace between Israel and Egypt demonstrates that direct bilateral negotiations are the most effective way to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict and can lead to lasting and mutually beneficial results; Whereas the other parties to the conflict have been unwilling to enter into direct bilateral negotiations but continue to maintain a state of war against Israel; Whereas the continuation of the conflict has exacted a high cost in human lives and human suffering from both Israelis and Arabs; and Whereas the treaty has allowed the peoples of Israel and Egypt to begin to build a network of cultural, economic, personal, and political contacts among themselves: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the United States Government— (1) commends Israel and Egypt for their historic act of courage and statesmanship in signing the Treaty of Peace of March 26, 1979; (2) calls upon the President to mark this historic anniversary with appropriate public activities; (3) welcomes the willingness of Israel and Egypt to continue to observe the international obligations they have accepted which have contributed to the peace and stability of the region; and 103 STAT. 11 (4) calls upon other Arab nations and the Palestinians to follow the example of Israel and Egypt, to join actively in the peace process, to renounce the state of war and acts of violence, and to enter into face-to-face negotiations to achieve a just and lasting peace.

 Whereas the status and composition of the family in the United States is constantly changing; Whereas today 57 percent of all women with children younger than six years of age work outside the home; Whereas by 1995, two-thirds of all pre-school children and more than three-quarters of all school-age children will have mothers in the work force; Whereas the increasing participation of women in the work force will continue to increase the demand for child care during the working hours; Whereas adequate child care is an increasingly important element in enhancing the productivity of the work force and enabling parents to receive additional job training; Whereas child care experts have long known that a child’s first five years are the ideal base to support lifelong learning, and child care providers in both homes and child care centers can provide vital assistance to parents in these critical years; Whereas the collaboration of public and private efforts is essential to developing accessible, high quality child care; Whereas the National Association for the Education of Young Children is sponsoring a week of the young child, and it is appropriate for Congress to designate the same week as a period devoted to increasing public awareness of child care issues; Whereas communities across the United States are planning special activities to honor child care providers to illustrate the importance of high quality child care during that week; and Whereas all children deserve high quality child care, and all parents have a profound obligation to provide a safe wholesome environment for their children at all times: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 14 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

5 USC 1201 note.

FINDING AND PURPOSE. (a) Findings.—The Congress finds that— (1) Federal employees who make disclosures described in section 2302(b)(8) of title 5, United States Code, serve the public interest by assisting in the elimination of fraud, waste, abuse, and unnecessary Government expenditures; (2) protecting employees who disclose Government illegality, waste, and corruption is a major step toward a more effective civil service; and (3) in passing the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978, Congress established the Office of Special Counsel to protect whistle-blowers (those individuals who make disclosures described in such section 2302(b)(8)) from reprisal. (b) Purpose.—The purpose of this Act is to strengthen and improve protection for the rights of Federal employees, to prevent reprisals, and to help eliminate wrongdoing within the Government by— (1) mandating that employees should not suffer adverse consequences as a result of prohibited personnel practices; and (2) establishing— (A) that the primary role of the Office of Special Counsel is to protect employees, especially whistleblowers, from prohibited personnel practices; (B) that the Office of Special Counsel shall act in the interests of employees who seek assistance from the Office of Special Counsel; and (C) that while disciplining those who commit prohibited personnel practices may be used as a means by which to help accomplish that goal, the protection of individuals who are the subject of prohibited personnel practices remains the paramount consideration.

[S.J. Res. 43]

 Whereas the United States has fought in many wars; Whereas thousands of members of the Armed Forces of the United States who served in such wars were captured by the enemy and held as prisoners of war; Whereas many such prisoners of war were subjected to brutal and inhumane treatment by their captors in violation of international codes and customs for the treatment of prisoners of war and died, or were disabled, as a result of such treatment; Whereas in 1985, the United States Congress (in Public Law 99–145) directed the Department of Defense to issue a medal to former prisoners of war in recognition and commemoration of their great sacrifices in service to our Nation; and Whereas these great sacrifices by former prisoners of war and their families deserve national recognition: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That April 9, 1989, is designated as “National Former Prisoners of War Recognition Day” in honor of the members of the Armed Forces of the United States who have been held as prisoners of war, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to commemorate such days with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Joint Resolution To designate April 16, 1989, and April 6, 1990, as “Education Day, U.S.A.”.

Apr. 18, 1989

[H.J. Res. 173]

 Whereas Congress recognizes the historical tradition of ethical values and principles which are the basis of civilized society and upon which our great Nation was founded; Whereas these ethical values and principles have been the bedrock of society from the dawn of civilization, when they were known as the Seven Noahide Laws; Whereas without these ethical values and principles the edifice of civilization stands in serious peril of returning to chaos; Whereas society is profoundly concerned with the recent weakening of these principles that has resulted in crises that beleaguer and threaten the fabric of civilized society; Whereas the justified preoccupation with these crises must not let the citizens of this Nation lose sight of their responsibility to transmit these historical ethical values from our distinguished past to the generations of the future; Whereas the Lubavitch movement through its over one hundred and fifty centers in the United States and many more the world over has fostered and promoted these ethical values and principles throughout the world; Whereas Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, leader of the Lubavitch movement, is universally respected and revered and his eighty-seventh year will be seen as the year of continued “turn and return”, the year in which we continue to tum to an education which will return the world to the moral and ethical values contained in the Seven Noahide Laws; Whereas, this year of 1989 (5749 on the Hebrew calendar) is the “40th Anniversary” in which the Rebbe completes the fourth decade since his ascension to the world leadership of the Lubavitch movement and spiritual guidance of world Jewry; and Whereas this has been reflected in the “international scroll of honor” which has been signed by the President of the United States and other heads of state: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That April 16, 1989, the eighty-seventh birthday of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, leader and head of the worldwide Lubavitch movement and April 6, 1990, are each designated as “Education Day, U.S.A.”. The President is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe each such day with appropriate ceremonies and activities. We also call on heads of state of the world to 103 STAT. 42 join our President in this tribute by signing similar scrolls of honor which will be presented in their respective countries this year of the “40th Anniversary”. On this occasion we would also welcome the cooperation of the Department of State in ext.ending the good office of the United States missions to the Lubavitcher emissaries.

[H.J. Res. 102]

 Whereas a solid waste disposal crisis exists in the United States; Whereas half of the major cities in the United States will have no space available for disposal of garbage within 4 years; Whereas trash incineration and non-incineration industries should adopt recycling methods; Whereas source separation, mechanical separation, and community-based recycling programs divert a significant portion of waste from landfills; Whereas recycling preserves limited landfill capacity for disposal of nontoxic waste; Whereas recycling saves energy and avoids the pollution created in extracting resources from their natural environment; Whereas the revenues from goods recovered by public sector recycling programs help to offset the costs of the programs; Whereas shared savings, which accrue by avoiding the higher cost of landfills or incineration, make recycling an economically efficient disposal policy even where markets for recycled materials are weak or undeveloped; Whereas a well-developed system of recycling scrap metals, paper, and glass already exists and significantly reduces the quantity of solid waste composed of metal, paper, and glass; Whereas substantial increases in the amount of materials recycled will require development of markets that absorb the increase in the amount of materials recycled, known as incremental markets; Whereas many consumer products are designed without sufficient regard for safe and efficient recycling after disposal; Whereas the Federal Government and State and local governments should enact legislative measures that will increase the amount of solid waste that is recycled; Whereas the Federal Government and State and local governments should encourage the growth of incremental markets for materials recovered from recyclable goods; Whereas the Federal Government and State and local governments should promote the design of products that can be recycled safely and efficiently after use; Whereas the Federal Government and State and local governments should establish requirements for in-home separation of waste to enable efficient recycling; and Whereas the people of the United States should be encouraged to participate in educational and legislative endeavors that promote waste separation methods, community-based recycling programs, and expanded utilization of recovered materials: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 44 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

[S. J. Res. 37]

 Whereas osteoporosis, a degenerative bone condition, afflicts 25,000,000 people in the United States; Whereas osteoporosis afflicts 90 percent of women over age 75; Whereas 50 percent of all women in the United States over age 45 will develop some form of osteoporosis; Whereas hip fractures are the most disabling outcome of osteoporosis, and 32 percent of women and 17 percent of men who live to age 90 will likely suffer a hip fracture due primarily to osteoporosis; Whereas the mortality rates for people who suffer a hip fracture increase by 20 percent, with such fractures resulting in the death of over 50,000 older women and many older men each year; Whereas 15 to 25 percent of people who suffer a hip fracture stay in a long-term care facility for at least one year after the fracture occurs, and 25 to 35 percent of people who return home from a long-term care facility after recovering from a hip fracture re­quire assistance with daily living after returning home; Whereas the total cost to society of dealing with osteoporosis was over $10,000,000,000 in 1988 and such cost is expected to rise as the population ages; Whereas osteoporosis is associated with the loss of bone mass due to a lack of estrogen as a result of menopause, alcohol or cigarette use, and low calcium intake; Whereas exercise and proper nutrition before an individual is age 35 will build bone mass to help prevent osteoporosis; and Whereas people who suffer from osteoporosis should be aware of the increased risk of bone fractures, and should take precautions to reduce the chance of accidents that may result in bone fractures due primarily to osteoporosis: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 59 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Joint Resolution Designating June 14, 1989, as “Baltic Freedom Day”, and for other purposes

June 19, 1989

[S. J. Res. 63]

 Whereas the people of the republics of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia (hereinafter referred to as the “Baltic Republics”} have cherished the principles of religious and political freedom and independence; Whereas the Baltic Republics existed as independent, sovereign nations and as fully recognized members of the League of Nations; Whereas 1989 marks the 50th anniversary of the infamous Molotov- Ribbentrop Pact in which the Soviet Union colluded with Nazi Germany, thus allowing the Soviet Union in 1940 to illegally seize and occupy the Baltic Republics and to incorporate such republics by force into the Soviet Union against the national will and the desire for independence and freedom of the people of such republics; Whereas due to Soviet and Nazi tyranny, by the end of World War II, 20 percent of the total population of the Baltic Republics had been lost; Whereas the people of the Baltic Republics have individual and separate cultures and national traditions and languages which are distinctively foreign to those of Russia; Whereas since 1940, the Soviet Union has systematically implemented Baltic genocide by deporting native Baltic peoples from Baltic homelands to forced labor and concentration camps in Siberia and elsewhere; Whereas by relocating masses of Russians to the Baltic Republics, the Soviet Union has threatened the Baltic cultures with extinction through russification; Whereas through a program of russification, the Soviet Union has introduced ecologically unsound industries without proper safe-guards into the Baltic Republics, and the presence of such industries has resulted in deleterious effects on the environment and well-being of the Baltic people; Whereas the Soviet Union, despite recent pronouncements of openness and restructuring, has imposed upon the captive people of the Baltic Republics an oppressive political system which has destroyed every vestige of democracy, civil liberty, and religious freedom; Whereas the people of the Baltic Republics are subjugated by the Soviet Union, are locked into a union such people deplore, are denied basic human rights, and are persecuted for daring to protest; Whereas the Soviet Union refuses to abide by the Helsinki accords which the Soviet Union voluntarily signed; Whereas the United States stands as a champion of liberty, is dedicated to the principles of national self-determination, human rights, and religious freedom, and is opposed to oppression and imperialism; 103 STAT. 80 Whereas the United States, as a member of the United Nations, had repeatedly voted with a majority of that international body to uphold the right of other countries of the world to self-determination and freedom from foreign domination; Whereas the Soviet Union has steadfastly refused to return to the people of the Baltic Republics the right to exist as independent republics, separate and apart from the Soviet Union, or to permit a return of personal, political and religious freedoms; and Whereas 1989 marks the 49th anniversary of the continued policy of the United States of not recognizing the illegal forcible occupation of the Baltic Republics by the Soviet Union: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That— (1) the Congress recognizes the continuing desire and right of the people of the Baltic Republics for freedom and independence from the domination of the Soviet Union; (2) the Congress deplores the refusal of the Soviet Union to recognize the sovereignty of the Baltic Republics and to yield to the rightful demands for independence from foreign domination and oppression by the people of the Baltic Republics; (3) June 14, 1989, the anniversary of the mass deportation of Baltic peoples from their homelands in 1941, is designated as “Baltic Freedom Day”, as a symbol of the solidarity of the people of the United States with the aspirations of the enslaved Baltic people; and (4) the President is authorized and requested— (A) to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe Baltic Freedom Day with appropriate ceremonies and activities, and (B) to call upon the Soviet Union, the Federal Republic of Germany, and the Democratic Republic of Germany to renounce the acquisition or absorption of the Baltic Republics by the Soviet Union as a result of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact.

25 USC 1773 note.

 (a) Findings.—The Congress finds and declares that: (1) It is the policy of the United States to promote tribal self-determination and economic self-sufficiency and to support the resolution of disputes over historical claims through settlements mutually agreed to by Indian and non-Indian parties. (2) Disputes over certain land claims of the Puyallup Tribe and other matters, including— (A) ownership of the Commencement Bay tidelands and areas of former Puyallup Riverbed, lands within the Puyallup Tribe’s Treaty Reservation, or intended reservation boundaries, (B) railroad and other rights-of-way, (C) control of fisheries resource and habitat, (D) jurisdiction over law enforcement, environment, navigation, and authority and control in the areas of land use, (E) business regulation and zoning, have resulted in difficult community relations and negative economic impacts affecting both the Tribe and non-Indian parties. (3) Some of the significant historical events that led to the present circumstances include— (A) the negotiation of the Treaty of Medicine Creek in December 1854, by the Puyallup Indians and others, by which the tribes ceded most of their territories but reserved certain lands and rights, including fishing rights; (B) the Executive Order of 1857 creating the Puyallup Indian Reservation; (C) the Executive Order of 1873, clarifying and extending the Puyallup Reservation in the Washington Territory; (D) the March 11, 1891, Report of the Puyallup Indian Commission on allotments and the 1896 report by a second Puyallup Indian Commission describing the problems with sales of allotted lands; and (E) the 1909 District Court for Tacoma decision of the United States of America against J.M. Ashton and the 1910 103 STAT. 84Supreme Court decision of United States of America against J.M. Ashton. (4) It is recognized that both Indian and non-Indian parties enter into this settlement to resolve certain problems and claims and to derive certain benefits. (5) There is a recognition that any final resolution of pending disputes through a process of litigation would take many years and entail great expense to all parties; continue economically and socially damaging controversies; prolong uncertainty as to the access, ownership, and jurisdictional status of issues in question; and seriously impair long-term economic planning and development for all parties. (6) To advance the goals of Federal policy of Indian self-determination and to carry out the trust responsibility of the United States, and to advance the Federal policy of international trade and economic development, and in rec ignition of the Federal policy of settling these conflicts through comprehensive settlement agreements, it is appropriate that the United States participate in the funding and implementation of the Settlement Agreement. (b)Purpose.—Therefore, it is the purpose of this Act— (1) to approve, ratify, and confirm the agreement entered into by the non-Indian settlement parties and the Puyallup Tribe of Indians, (2) to authorize and direct the Secretary to implement the terms of such agreement, and (3) to authorize the actions and appropriations necessary to implement the provisions of the Settlement Agreement and this Act.

STUDY AND REPORT ON OIL LEASING AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS TO FILL SPR TO ONE BILLION BARRELS.

In carrying out such study, the Secretary shall— (1) assume that the legislation that extends title I of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act beyond April 1, 1990, will require the Secretary to amend, by July 1, 1990, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve Plan to provide plans for completion of storage of one billion barrels of petroleum products in the Reserve at an average fill-rate of at least seventy-five thousand barrels per day; (2) consider a broad array of such arrangements; (3) consult with persons in the private sector who might be interested in leasing crude oil or storage facilities; (4) initiate, in cooperation with the Department of State, to the extent consistent with the interests of the United States, discussions with representatives of foreign governments and other entities as to the types of financial arrangements (including crude oil leasing arrangements) that would interest them; and (5) produce preliminary written solicitations for proposed alternative financial arrangements (including long-term leasing of crude oil and storage facilities) to assist in filling the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to one billion barrels. (b) Reports.—(1) The Secretary shall, no later than October 15, 1989, transmit to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate and the Committee on Energy and Commerce of the House of Representatives an interim report containing— (A) an enumeration of the specific resources (both personnel and funding) committed to the study described in subsection (a); (B) a description of the progress made toward completing the study; and 103 STAT. 133 (C) any preliminary findings and conclusions made by such date. (2) The Secretary shall, no later than February 1, 1990, transmit to such committees a copy of the solicitations described in paragraph (5) of subsection (a) and a final report containing the findings and conclusions of the study carried out under this section, together with a draft of the legislative changes that would be necessary to authorize the most significant alternative financial arrangements studied by the Secretary (including long-term leasing of crude oil and storage facilities) and recommendations of the Secretary with respect to the need for and desirability of such financial arrangements (including long-term leasing of crude oil and storage facilities). (c) Enforcement.—Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no portion of the United States share of crude oil in Naval Petroleum Reserve Numbered 1 (Elk Hills) may be sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to any contract or other agreement entered into or extended on or after February 1, 1990, other than to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (either directly or by exchange) until the Secretary of Energy has transmitted the solicitations and the final report described in subsection (b)(2) (including the legislative changes and recommendations described in such subsection) to the committees described in subsection (b)(1), except for the purposes provided in section 160(d)(2) of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act.

Joint Resolution Designating July 2, 1989, as “National Literacy Day”

June 30, 1989

[S.J. Res. 96]

 Whereas literacy is a necessary tool for survival in our society; Whereas thirty-five million Americans today read at a level which is less than necessary for full survival needs; Whereas there are twenty-seven million adults in the United States who cannot read, whose resources are left untapped, and who are unable to offer their full contribution to society; Whereas illiteracy is growing rapidly, as two million three-hundred thousand persons, including one million two-hundred thousand legal and illegal immigrants, one million high school dropouts, and one hundred thousand refugees, are added to the pool of illiterates annually; Whereas the annual cost of illiteracy to the United States in terms of welfare expenditures, crime, prison expenses, lost revenues, and industrial and military accidents has been estimated at $225,000,000,000; Whereas the competitiveness of the United States is eroded by the presence in the workplace of millions of Americans who are functionally or technologically illiterate; Whereas there is a direct correlation between the number of illiterate adults unable to perform at the standard necessary for available employment and the money allocated to child welfare and unemployment compensation; Whereas the percentage of illiterates in proportion to population size is higher for blacks and Hispanics, resulting in increased economic and social discrimination against these minorities; Whereas the prison population represents the single highest concentration of adult illiteracy; Whereas one million children in the United States between the ages of twelve and seventeen cannot read above a third grade level, 13 per centum of all seventeen-year-olds are functionally illiterate, and 15 per centum of graduates of urban high schools read at less than a sixth grade level; Whereas 85 per centum of the juveniles who appear in criminal court are functionally illiterate; Whereas the 47 per centum illiteracy rate among black youths is expected to increase to 50 per centum by 1990; Whereas one-half of all heads of households cannot read past the eighth grade level and one-third of all mothers on welfare are functionally illiterate; Whereas the cycle of illiteracy continues because the children of illiterate parents are often illiterate themselves because of the lack of support they receive from their home environment; Whereas Federal, State, municipal, and private literacy programs have only been able to reach 5 per centum of the total illiterate population; 103 STAT. 140 Whereas it is vital to call attention to the problem of illiteracy, to understand the severity of the problem and its detrimental effects on our society, and to reach those who are illiterate and unaware of the free services and help available to them; and Whereas it is also necessary to recognize and thank the thousands of volunteers who are working to promote literacy and provide support to the millions of illiterates in need of assistance: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That July 2, 1989, is designated as “National Literacy Day”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

 Whereas the people of the United States should celebrate children as the most valuable asset of the Nation; Whereas children represent the future, hope, and inspiration of the United States; Whereas the children of the United States should not be allowed to feel that their ideas and dreams will be stifled because adults in the United States do not take time to listen; Whereas many children face crises of grave proportions, especially as they enter adolescent years; Whereas it is important for parents to spend time listening to their children on a daily basis; Whereas modern societal and economic demands often pull the family apart; Whereas encouragement should be given to families to set aside a special time for all family members to remain at home; Whereas adults in the United States should have an opportunity to reminisce on their youth to recapture some of the fresh insight, innocence, and dreams that they may have lost through the years; Whereas the designation of a day to commemorate the children of the United States will provide an opportunity to emphasize to children the importance of developing an ability to make the choices necessary to distance themselves from impropriety; Whereas the designation of a day to commemorate the children of the Nation will emphasize to the people of the United States the importance of the role of the child within the family; Whereas the people of the United States should emphasize to children the importance of family life, education, and spiritual qualities; and Whereas parents, teachers, and community and religious leaders should celebrate the children of the United States, whose questions, laughter, and tears are important to the existence of the United States: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 143 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

July 7, 1989

[H.J. Res. 276]

 Whereas D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) is a semester-long program that teaches fifth and sixth grade children how to resist pressure to experiment with drugs and alcohol; Whereas the D.A.R.E. program is also provided to kindergarten and junior high school students and their parents; Whereas D.A.R.E. targets children when they are most vulnerable to tremendous peer pressure to try drugs and alcohol and teaches the skills to make positive decisions and resist pressure to engage in negative behaviors; Whereas more than 1,200 communities in 48 States now conduct the D.A.R.E. program in their local schools, and a pilot program has been implemented for use internationally in the Department of Defense Dependent Schools; Whereas almost 3 million students have been reached through D.A.R.E.; Whereas because school children are frequently much more sophisticated about substance abuse than are classroom teachers, the D.A.R.E. program is taught by veteran police officers with direct experience in cases involving criminal activity and ruined lives caused by substance abuse; Whereas each police officer who teaches the D.A.R.E. program completes an 80-hour training course that includes instruction tn teaching techniques, officer-school relationship, development of self-esteem, child development, and communication skills; Whereas the D.A.R.E. curriculum, developed by the Los Angeles Police Department and the Los Angeles Unified School District, helps students understand self-image, recognize stress and manage it without taking drugs, analyze and resist media presentations about alcohol and drugs, evaluate risk-taking behavior, resist gang pressure, apply decision making skills, and evaluate the consequences of the choices available to them; Whereas independent research shows that the D.A.R.E. program has exceeded its goal of helping students combat peer pressure to use drugs and alcohol, by contributing to improved study habits and grades and decreased vandalism and gang activity and by generating greater respect for police officers; and Whereas the D.A.R.E. program has achieved outstanding success teaching positive and effective approaches to what is one of the most difficult problems facing our young people today, namely drug abuse: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 147 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That September 14, 1989, is designated as “National D.A.R.E. Day”, and the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe that day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

July 25, 1989

[H.J. Res. 174]

 Whereas it is estimated that fifty million Americans are affected each year by disorders and disabilities that involve the brain, including the major mental illnesses; inherited and degenerative diseases; stroke; epilepsy; addictive disorders; injury resulting from prenatal events, environmental neurotoxins and trauma; and speech, language, hearing and other cognitive disorders; Whereas it is estimated that treatment, rehabilitation and related costs of disorders and disabilities that affect the brain represents a total economic burden of $305,000,000,000 annually; Whereas the people of the Nation should be aware of the exciting research advances on the brain and of the availability of effective treatment of disorders and disabilities that affect the brain; Whereas a technological revolution occurring in the brain sciences, resulting in such procedures as positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, permits clinical researchers to observe the living brain noninvasively and in exquisite detail, to define brain systems that are implicated in specific disorders and disabilities, to study complex neuropeptides and behavior as well as to begin to learn about the complex structures underlying memory; Whereas scientific information on the brain is amassing at an enormous rate, and the field of computer and information sciences has reached a level of sophistication sufficient to handle neuroscience data in a manner that would be maximally useful to both basic researchers and clinicians dealing with brain function and dysfunction; Whereas advances in mathematics, physics, computational science, and brain imaging technologies have made possible the initiation of significant work in imaging brain function and pathology, modeling neural networks and simulating their dynamic interactions; Whereas comprehending the reality of the nervous system is still on the frontier of technological innovation requiring a comprehensive effort to decipher how individual neurons, by their collective action, give rise to human intelligence; Whereas fundamental discoveries at the molecular and cellular levels of the organization of the brain are clarifying the role of the brain in translating neurophysiologic events into behavior, thought, and emotion; Whereas molecular biology and molecular genetics have yielded strategies effective in preventing several forms of severe mental retardation and are contributing to promising breakthroughs in the study of inheritable neurological disorders, such as Huntington's disease, and mental disorders, such as affective illnesses; Whereas the capacity to map the biochemical circuitry of neurotransmitters and neuromodulators will permit the rational 103 STAT. 153 design of potent medications possessing minimal adverse effects that will act on the discrete neurochemical deficits associated with such disorders as Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s disease; Whereas the incidence of neurologic, psychiatric, psychological, and cognitive disorders and disabilities experienced by older persons will increase in the future as the number of older persons increases; Whereas studies of the brain and central nervous system will contribute not only to the relief of neurologic, psychiatric, psychological, and cognitive disorders, but also to the management of fertility and infertility, cardiovascular disease, infectious and parasitic diseases, developmental disabilities and immunologic disorders, as well as to an understanding of behavioral factors that underlie the leading preventable causes of death in this Nation; Whereas the central nervous and immune systems are both signalling systems which serve the entire organism, and there are direct connections between the nervous and immune systems, and whereas studies of the modulatory effects of each system on the other will enhance our understanding of diseases as diverse as the major psychiatric disorders, acquired immune deficiency syndrome, and autoimmune disorders; Whereas recent discoveries have led to fundamental insights as to why people abuse drugs, how abused drugs affect brain function leading to addiction, and how some of these drugs cause permanent brain damage; Whereas studies of the brain will contribute to the development of new treatments that will curtail the craving for drugs, break the addictive effects of drugs, prevent the brain-mediated “high” caused by certain abused drugs, and lessen the damage done to the developing minds of babies, who are the innocent victims of drug abuse; Whereas treatment for persons with head injury, developmental disabilities, speech, hearing, and other cognitive functions is increasing in availability and effectiveness; Whereas the study of the brain involves the multidisciplinary efforts of scientists from such diverse areas as physiology, biochemistry, psychology, psychiatry, molecular biology, anatomy, medicine, genetics, and many others working together toward the common goals of better understanding the structure of the brain and how it affects our development, health, and behavior; Whereas the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology has been awarded to fifteen neuroscientists within the past twenty-five years, an achievement that underscores the excitement and productivity of the study of the brain and central nervous system and its potential for contributing to the health of humanity; Whereas the people of the Nation should be concerned with research into disorders and disabilities that affect the brain, and should recognize prevention and treatment of such disorders and disabilities as a health priority; and Whereas the declaration of the Decade of the Brain will focus needed government attention on research, treatment, and rehabilitation in this area: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the decade beginning January 1, 1990, hereby is designated the “Decade of the 103 STAT. 154Brain”, and the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon all public officials and the people of the United States to observe such decade with appropriate programs and activities.

 Whereas on June 25, 1950, the Communist army of North Korea invaded and attacked South Korea, initiating the Korean war; Whereas the week of July 24 to July 30, 1989, includes July 27, the thirty-sixth anniversary of the cease-fire agreement that ended the active combat of the Korean war; Whereas the Korean war was brought to an end primarily through the efforts of the United States Armed Forces; Whereas for the first and only time in history a United Nations command was created, with the United States as the executive agent, to repel this invasion and preserve liberty for the people of the Republic of Korea; Whereas, in addition to the United States and the Republic of Korea, twenty other member nations provided military contingents to serve under the United Nations banner; Whereas, after three years of active hostilities, the territorial integrity of the Republic of Korea was restored, and the freedom and independence of its people are assured even to this date; Whereas over five million seven hundred thousand American servicemen and women were involved directly or indirectly in the war; Whereas American casualties during that period were fifty-four thousand two hundred and forty-six dead, of which thirty-three thousand six hundred and twenty-nine were battle deaths, one hundred and three thousand two hundred and eighty-four were wounded, eight thousand one hundred seventy-seven listed as missing or prisoners of war, and three hundred and twenty-eight prisoners of war are still unaccounted for; Whereas, although the Korean war has been known as America’s “Forgotten War“, those who served have never forgotten, and this Nation should never forget the sacrifice made by those who fought and died in Korea for the noble and just cause of freedom; Whereas the Congress and the President of the United States have enacted a law authorizing the establishment of a Korean War Veterans Memorial in the Nation's Capital to recognize and honor the service and sacrifice of those who participated in the Korean war; Whereas increasing numbers of Korean war veterans are setting aside July 27, the anniversary date of the armistice, as a special day to remember those with whom they served and to honor those who made the supreme sacrifice in a war to preserve the ideals of freedom and independence; and Whereas on this significant anniversary of the cease-fire which started the longest military armistice in modern history, it is right and appropriate to recognize, honor, and remember the service and sacrifice of those who endured the rigors of combat and the 103 STAT. 161 extremes of a hostile climate under the most trying conditions and still prevailed to preserve the independence of a free nation: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the week of July 24 to July 30, 1989, is designated as the “National Week of Recognition and Remembrance for Those Who Served in the Korean War”. The President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such week with appropriate ceremonies and activities, and to urge the departments and agencies of the United States and interested organizations, groups, and individuals to fly the American flag at half staff on July 27, 1989, in honor of those Americans who died as a result of their service in Korea.
Approved July 26, 1989.

Joint Resolution Designating October 5, 1989, as “Raoul Wallenberg Day”

July 27, 1989

[S.J. Res. 110]

 Whereas in January 1944, the United States War Refugee Board asked Sweden to send a representative to Hungary to organize rescue operations for the Hungarian Jewish community which was marked for liquidation by the Nazis; Whereas the Swedish representative, Raoul Wallenberg, through a combination of what has been described as “bluff, heroism, and a contempt for convention” waged a bold campaign in Hungary to thwart the “final solution”; Whereas in the 6 months he was in Budapest, Raoul Wallenberg managed to, directly and indirectly, save the lives of some 100,000 men, women, and children; Whereas Raoul Wallenberg risked his own life countless times during his work, dragging Jews from trains bound for gas chambers, bringing food and blankets to those on death marches, and unflinchingly challenging Nazi authorities; Whereas Raoul Wallenberg was taken into Soviet “protective custody” on January 13, 1945, in violation of international standards of diplomatic immunity; Whereas Soviet officials originally denied having custody of Wallenberg, but subsequently stated that a prisoner named “Wallenberg” died in a Soviet prison on July 17, 1947; Whereas eyewitness accounts over the years, and as recently as December 1986, indicate that Raoul Wallenberg may indeed still be alive and imprisoned in the Soviet Union; Whereas the Soviet Union has never produced a death certificate or the remains of Raoul Wallenberg to prove that he died; Whereas the Soviet Union, despite numerous attempts by Swedish and American officials, refuses to look into the reports that Raoul Wallenberg is still alive; Whereas just as Raoul Wallenberg did not forget the Jewish people when it seemed that the rest of the world had forgotten, Raoul Wallenberg and all that he did for the cause of humanity must never be forgotten; and Whereas on October 5, 1981, the President of the United States signed into law a proclamation making Raoul Wallenberg an honorary citizen of the United States: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 164 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That October 5, 1989, is designated as “Raoul Wallenberg Recognition Day”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such a day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

 Whereas the United States has fought in many wars; Whereas thousands of Americans who served in those wars were captured by the enemy or listed as missing in action; Whereas many American prisoners of war were subjected to brutal and inhuman treatment by their enemy captors in violation of international codes and customs for the treatment of prisoners of war, and many such prisoners of war died from such treatment; Whereas many of these Americans are still missing and unaccounted for, and the uncertainty surrounding their fates has caused their families to suffer acute hardship; and Whereas the sacrifices of Americans still missing and unaccounted for and their families are deserving of national recognition and support for continued priority efforts to determine the fate of those missing Americans: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

[H.R. 1485]

 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1.

Apex Project Nevada Land Transfer and Authorization Act of 1989.

SHORT TITLE. This Act may be cited as the “Apex Project, Nevada Land Transfer and Authorization Act of 1989”.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND DEFINITIONS. (a) Findings.—Congress finds the following— (1) The only two domestic producers of ammonium perchlorate (“AP”), a principal component of solid rocket fuel essential to the Nation’s defense and space programs, are Pacific Engineering and Production Company, Incorporated (“Pepcon”) and Kerr-McGee Chemical Corporation (“Kerr-McGee”), which established production facilities near the city of Henderson in Clark County, Nevada (“the county”). On May 4, 1988, an explosion destroyed the Pepcon plant, thereby substantially reducing the Nation’s capacity to produce solid rocket fuel. (2) A commission subsequently appointed by the Governor of Nevada to examine the adequacy of existing policies and regulations pertaining to the manufacture and storage of certain industrial materials has recommended new policies which imply the desirability of relocating both some of Kerr-McGee’s AP production and storage facilities and also other industries to a less densely populated part of Clark County, but within reasonable distance of the present work force. (3) The Department of Defense and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration have identified an urgent need to replace the domestic ammonium perchlorate production capacity lost in the Pepcon accident and to firm up existing production capabilities in order to meet current shortages and long-term requirements. (4) The county has identified as the preferred site for the relocation of Kerr-McGee’s AP facilities approximately thirty-seven hundred acres of land (“Kerr-McGee Site”), which is part of approximately twenty-one thousand acres of Federal lands, identified by the county as the “Apex Site”, managed by the Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”). The county has advised the BLM it would like to purchase some or all of the lands comprising the Apex Site for development as a heavy-industry use zone, to locate potentially hazardous facilities. Orderly and appropriate development of such an industrial zone, in a manner consistent with public safety, protection of environmental and other values, and relevant State and Federal poli-103 STAT. 169cies and programs (including the national defense) would be preferable to development of the lands comprising the Apex Site in an unplanned manner. (5) The Federal lands comprising the Apex Site are presently classified for retention and multiple use by the applicable BLM land use plan. At the time the current land use plan was developed, disposal of large parcels of land immediately outside the Las Vegas Valley was not identified as a possibility. However, the expeditious transfer of the Kerr-McGee Site to Clark County for resale to Kerr-McGee, and transfer of necessary associated rights-of-way to the county, will serve an important national need which cannot be served as well on non-Federal land in Clark County and which outweighs other existing and potential public uses of the lands which would be served by maintaining them in Federal ownership. (6) Kerr-McGee has prepared an environmental assessment on the proposed transfer of the Kerr-McGee Site and supporting utility and transportation rights-of-way, dated April 1989, entitled “Apex Nevada Land Transfer Proposal and Proposed Kerr-McGee Ammonium Perchlorate Facility”, which identifies certain environmental impacts likely to result from the transfer of the site and supporting rights-of-way to the county which would be mitigated with various control measures. Any transfer by the United States of lands within the Apex Site should be conditioned upon provision of all measures appropriate to prevent or mitigate adverse environmental impacts. (7) Lands within the Apex Site provide habitat for the desert tortoise. The BLM, recognizing that the desert tortoise habitat found in Nevada, and elsewhere, is being significantly affected, especially within the Mojave Desert, by the rapid development associated with industrial growth and by other human activities, has prepared a rangewide plan for desert tortoise habitat management on the public lands. The goal of this plan is to ensure that viable desert tortoise populations will continue to exist through cooperative resource management aimed at protecting the species and its habitat. The BLM's implementation of this plan should be accelerated. (8) Lands within the Apex Site are close to Nellis Air Force Base and to public lands withdrawn for use by the Air Force as part of the Nellis Air Force Range complex. Nellis Air Force Base is the most active military airfield in the United States (with many of the aircraft using the base carrying live ordnance) and, together with the Nellis Air Force Range, constitutes a unique facility that plays a vital role in maintaining the combat capability of the Air Force’s tactical units. Maintaining the capability of Nellis Air Force Base to fulfill its mission must be a central part of any decisions concerning future use or disposition of the lands within the Apex Site. (b) Definitions.—As used in this Act, the following terms shall have the following meanings— (1) The term “Secretary” means the Secretary of the Interior. (2) The term “lands” means lands and interests therein. (3) The term “county” or “Clark County” means Clark County, Nevada. (4) The term “Kerr-McGee” means the Kerr-McGee Chemical Corporation. 103 STAT. 170 (5) The term “BLM’s Desert Tortoise Plan” means the plan entitled “Desert Tortoise Habitat Management on the Public Lands: A Rangewide Plan”, approved November 14, 1988. (6) All other terms shall have the same meaning as such terms have when used in the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976.
SEC. 3. KERR-McGEE SITE TRANSFER. (a) Directed Sale.—Subject to all valid existing rights, the Secretary is directed to convey the public lands comprising approximately thirty-seven hundred acres designated as “Area 1” and “Area 2” within the “Kerr-McGee Site” on the map entitled “Apex Heavy-Industry Use Zone” dated May 1989, to Clark County, Nevada, solely for sale to Kerr-McGee, in return for payment of the lands’ appraised fair market value, as determined by the Secretary in accordance with established appraisal practices. However, the lands within Area 1 shall not be conveyed unless and until the Secretary has received a written commitment from Clark County and Kerr-McGee that whichever is offered the opportunity to purchase the lands within Area 2 will do so at such lands' appraised fair market value when the lands are offered pursuant to subsection (c) of this section. (b)

Utilities.

Transportation.

 Rights-of-Way.— Subject to all valid existing rights, the Secretary is directed to grant utility and transportation rights-of-way to Clark County for the connection of existing electric power, water, natural gas, telephone, railroad and highway facilities to the Kerr-McGee Site, all as generally depicted on the map entitled “Rights-of-Way and Proposed Access and Utility Locations” dated May 1989. Each right-of-way shall not exceed two hundred feet in width and shall not preclude the Secretary from permitting other uses of the affected lands compatible with the uses for which such rights-of-way are granted. Clark County may permit other parties to use the lands covered by such rights-of-way for some or all of the purposes specified in this subsection. (c) Timing, Etc.— (1) Subject to subsections (a) and (b) of this section, the Secretary shall offer to sell to Clark County the lands within the Kerr-McGee Site depicted as Area 1 and shall offer to grant the rights-of-way described in subsection (b) of this section to Clark County within thirty days of the date of enactment of this Act, but the Secretary’s duty to transfer such lands and rights-of-way shall not lapse if they are not offered to the county within the prescribed time. Such sale shall be for fair market value, as determined by the Secretary in accordance with established procedures of the BLM. If Clark County fails to purchase such lands within sixty days of receiving the Secretary’s offer, the lands and rights-of-way shall be offered to Kerr-McGee for sale and grant on the same basis, and subject to Kerr-McGee’s entering into an agreement with the Secretary similar to the agreement described in section 6(a). If within sixty days after such offer, Kerr-McGee fails to purchase such lands, the lands shall become subject to the authorization provided for in section 4 of this Act, and the total acreage authorized for disposition under this section shall be increased accordingly. (2) If the lands within Area 1 are purchased pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection, upon completion of a survey of the boundaries of Area 2, the Secretary shall offer to sell to the purchaser of Area 1 the lands within Area 2 at their appraised fair 103 STAT. 171market value, as determined by the Secretary in accordance with established procedures of the BLM. (3) Each right-of-way granted pursuant to this section shall be subject to rental payments and other conditions provided for in applicable law, including the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 and this Act. The amounts received by the United States from sales of lands covered by this section shall be distributed pursuant to laws generally applicable to sales of public lands.
SEC. 4. AUTHORIZATION FOR ADDITIONAL TRANSFERS. (a) Sale Authorized.— Notwithstanding any BLM land use plan calling for retention of the Apex Site and notwithstanding the reporting requirements and competitive bidding requirements of section 203 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, the Secretary is authorized, subject to any other requirements of law, including the conditions of this section, to sell to Clark County some or all of the lands within the Apex Site, depicted on the map referred to in section 3(a), that lie outside the boundaries of the Kerr-McGee Site (as depicted on such map) for fair market value as determined by the Secretary in accordance with established appraisal procedures. (b) Requirements and Conditions.— If, no later than one year

Contracts.

after the date of enactment of this Act, the county demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Secretary that the county has designated the lands comprising the Apex Site as a heavy-use industrial zone, pursuant to applicable laws of the State of Nevada, and has adopted a plan for the development of some or all of such lands accordingly, the Secretary shall offer to enter into a land sales agreement with Clark County for the transfer of some or all of such lands to the county by one or more direct sales pursuant to this section over a period not to exceed ten years. Such agreement shall provide for purchasers of parcels of the lands within the Apex Site, with any specific parcels to be sold to be determined by the Secretary, in response to proposals by the county and after consultation with the Secretary of the Air Force concerning any potential impact of any such sale on activities associated with Nellis Air Force Base. The purchase price for each parcel shall be its appraised fair market value at the time of the sale, but any agreement between the county and the Secretary under this section shall provide that if the county sells any such parcel or portion thereof, the county shall pay to the United States an amount equal to 50 per centum of the amount by which the amount received by the county exceeds 110 per centum of the sum equal to the total amounts expended by the county for acquisition of such parcel or portion thereof, for improvements to such parcel or portion thereof, and for preparation of such parcel or portion thereof for sale. (c) Rights-of-Way.— Pursuant to applicable law, the Secretary may grant Clark County such rights-of-way on public lands as may be necessary to support the development as a heavy-use industrial zone of some or all of the lands identified in subsection (a). (d) Procedures.— Except as specified in subsection (a) nothing in this section shall relieve the Secretary from compliance with all laws applicable either to the transfer of some or all of the lands identified in subsection (a) or to the granting of any rights-of-way, including, but not limited to, the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. Unless otherwise specified in this Act, sales of lands

Patents and trademarks.

pursuant to this section shall be made and patents or other docu-103 STAT. 172ments of conveyance shall be issued as if such sales were made pursuant to the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. (e)

Minerals and mining.

Energy.

 Withdrawal, Etc.— (1) Subject to all valid existing rights, the lands within the Apex Site (depicted on the map referred to in section 3(a)) are hereby withdrawn from all forms of entry and appropriation under the public land laws, including the mining law, and from operation of the mineral leasing and geothermal leasing laws, but shall remain available for disposition under the Recreation and Public Purposes Act (43 U.S.C. 869 et seq.) and for sale under this Act or other applicable law. This withdrawal shall continue in effect until a parcel of land affected by such withdrawal is sold, if such sale includes the right, title and interest of the United States In the minerals in such parcel. If the county or another party to whom such parcel is offered, elects not to seek to purchase the minerals in any such parcel, such parcel shall remain withdrawn from entry, location, or patent under the mining laws but after receipt by the Secretary of notification that the county or other offeree does not seek to purchase such minerals, such parcel shall be open to operation of the mineral leasing and geothermal leasing laws. The withdrawal made by this subsection shall continue for twelve years after the date of enactment of this Act or until otherwise provided by an Act of Congress enacted after the date of enactment of this Act. (2) Before offering any parcel for sale pursuant to an agreement with the county under this section, the Secretary (in addition to other requirements of law) shall consider whether development of such parcel as part of a heavy-use industrial zone, including any appropriation mitigation measures, would be inconsistent with BLM’s Desert Tortoise Plan. (f)

Claims.

 Cogeneration Project.— Notwithstanding any withdrawal of the Apex Site (depicted on the map referred to in section 3(a)), and subject to the provisions of applicable law, the Secretary may grant to holders of valid existing mill-site claims on such lands such rights-of-way as may be necessary for the construction, operation, and maintenance of facilities required in the cogeneration of electricity at the site of existing mill-site operations on such claims, unless and until the land subject to such claims is transferred out of Federal ownership. No such grant shall be made unless and until all environmental studies required In connection with such construction, operation, and maintenance have been completed and any necessary mitigation measures have been agreed to.
SEC. 5. RESERVATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY CORRIDORS. The transfer of lands pursuant to section 4 of this Act shall be subject to the reservation to the United States of the right-of-way corridors depicted on a map entitled “Right-of-Way Corridors Across the Apex Heavy Industrial Zone” dated May 1989. These corridors shall be administered by the Secretary, who may grant rights-of-way over, upon, under and through the corridors consistent with applicable law. In the administration of such corridors, the Secretary shall, so far as feasible, locate rights-of-way so as to have the least possible impact on any industrial uses. Nothing in this Act shall be construed as restricting the authority of the Secretary, under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 or other applicable law, to reserve or grant any other rights-of-way with respect to such lands, in addition to the rights-of-way described on such map.
103 STAT. 173

At the request of the Secretary, the Attorney General of the United States may bring an appropriate legal action to enforce such agreement. (b) BLM Reports.— (1) No later than one year after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall submit to the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs of the United States House of Representatives and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the United States Senate a report as to the funds and personnel required to fully implement BLM’s Desert Tortoise Plan. (2) As soon as possible after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary, acting through the Director of the Bureau of Land Management, shall arrange for a class-three soil survey of public lands in Clark County, to assist in the implementation in such county of BLM’s Desert Tortoise Plan and other aspects of the management of the public lands in such county. (3) As soon as possible after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall invite public proposals for the designation, pursuant to the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, of areas of critical environmental concern whose designation would further the implementation of BLM’s Desert Tortoise Plan or otherwise assist in the protection of resources and values of public lands in Nevada. The Secretary shall provide a reasonable period for receipt of such proposals, shall evaluate all proposals received, and shall take such action thereon as the Secretary considers appropriate. (4) As soon as possible after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall consider the desirability of restricting or eliminating uses of public lands in the Paiute Valley which may conflict with implementation of BLM’s Desert Tortoise Plan with respect to those lands.

Aug. 2, 1989

[S.J. Res. 150]

 Whereas August 1, 1989, will be the fourteenth anniversary of the signing of the Final Act of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE) (hereafter in this preamble referred to as the “Helsinki accords”); Whereas on August 1, 1975, the Helsinki accords were agreed to by the Governments of Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Cyprus, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Finland, France, the German Democratic Republic, the Federal Republic of Germany, Greece, the Holy See, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and Yugoslavia; Whereas the participating States have committed themselves to balanced progress in all areas of the Helsinki accords; Whereas the Helsinki accords recognize the inherent relationship between respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms and the attainment of genuine security; Whereas the Helsinki accords express the commitment of the participating States to “recognize the universal significance of human rights and fundamental freedoms, respect for which is an essential factor for the peace, justice and well-being necessary to ensure the development of friendly relations and cooperation among themselves as among all States”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “respect human rights and fundamental freedoms, including the freedom of thought, conscience, religion or belief, for all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “promote and encourage the effective exercise of civil, political, economic, social, cultural and other rights and freedoms all of which derive from the inherent dignity of the human person and are essential for his free and full development”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “recognize and respect the freedom of the individual to profess and practice, alone or in community with others, religion or belief acting in accordance with the dictates of his own conscience”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States on whose territory national minorities exist to “respect the right of persons belonging to such minorities to equality before the law” and that such States “will afford them the full opportunity for the actual enjoyment of human rights and 103 STAT. 177 fundamental freedoms and will in this manner, protect their legitimate interests in this sphere”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “constantly respect these rights and freedoms in their mutual relations” and that such States “will endeavor jointly and separately, including in cooperation with the United Nations, to promote universal and effective respect for them”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “conform the right of the individual to know and act upon his rights and duties in this field”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States in the field of human rights and fundamental freedoms to “act in conformity with the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights” and to “fulfill their obligations as set forth in the international declarations and agreements in this field, including inter alia the International Covenants on Human Rights, by which they may be bound”; Whereas the Helsinki accords by incorporation also express the commitment of the participating States to guarantee the right of the individual to leave his own country and return to such country; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “facilitate freer movement and contacts, individually and collectively, whether privately or officially, among persons, institutions and organizations of the participating States, and to contribute to the solution of the humanitarian problems that arise in that connection”; Whereas the Helsinki accords also express the commitment of the participating States to “favorably consider applications for travel with the purpose of allowing persons to enter or leave their territory temporarily, and on a regular basis if desired, in order to visit members of their families”;

Whereas, despite some significant improvements in some of these countries, the aforementioned Governments still have the worst performance records and have failed to fully implement their obligations under Principle VII of the Helsinki accords to respect human rights and fundamental freedoms, including the freedom of thought, conscience, religion or belief, and under Basket III of the Helsinki accords to promote free movement of people, ideas and information; Whereas representatives from the signatory States convened in Vienna on November 4, 1986, to review implementation and address issues of compliance with the human rights and humanitarian provisions of the Helsinki accords; Whereas representatives from the signatory States reached consensus on the Concluding Document of the Vienna Meeting on January 19, 1989, a document which has added clarity and precision to the obligations undertaken by the States in signing the Helsinki accords; and Whereas by agreeing to the document, the signatory States “reaffirmed their commitment to the CSCE process and underlined its essential role in increasing confidence, in opening up new ways for cooperation, in promoting respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms and thus strengthening international security”: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That— (1) August 1, 1989, the fourteenth anniversary of the signing of the Final Act on the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (hereinafter referred to as the “Helsinki accords”) is designated as “Helsinki Human Rights Day”; (2) the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation reasserting the American commitment to full implementation of the human rights and humanitarian provisions of the Helsinki accords, urging all signatory nations to abide by their obligations under the Helsinki accords, and encouraging the people of the United States to join the President and Congress in observance of the Helsinki Human Rights Day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities; (3) the President is further requested to continue his efforts to achieve full implementation of the human rights and humanitarian provisions of the Helsinki accords by raising the issue of noncompliance on the part of any signatory nation which may be in violation (in particular, the Governments of the Soviet Union, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, the German Democratic Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Romania); (4) the President is further requested to convey to all signatories of the Helsinki accords that respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms is a vital element of further progress in the ongoing Helsinki process; and 103 STAT. 179 (5) the President is authorized to convey to allies and friends of the United States that unity on the question of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms is an essential means of promoting the full implementation of the human rights and humanitarian provisions of the Helsinki accords.
Sec. 2. The Secretary of the Senate is directed to transmit copies of this joint resolution to the President, the Secretary of State, and the Ambassadors of the thirty-four Helsinki signatory nations.

Joint Resolution Designating August 8, 1989, as “National Neighborhood Crime Watch Day”.

Aug. 10, 1989

[S. J. Res. 136]

 Whereas neighborhood crime is of continuing concern to the American people; Whereas the tight against neighborhood crime requires people to work together in cooperation with law enforcement officials; Whereas neighborhood crime watch organizations are effective at promoting awareness about, and the participation of volunteers in, crime prevention activities at the local level; Whereas neighborhood crime watch groups can contribute to the Nation’s war on drugs by helping to prevent their communities from becoming markets for drug dealers; Whereas citizens across America will soon take part in a “National Night Out”, a unique crime prevention event which will demonstrate the importance and effectiveness of community participation in crime prevention efforts by having people spend the period from 8 to 10 o’clock post-meridian on August 8, 1989, with their neighbors in front of their homes: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That August 8, 1989, is designated as “National Neighborhood Crime Watch Day”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.

 Whereas July 31, 1989, marks the 200th anniversary of the signing by President George Washington of legislation establishing the United States Customs Service; Whereas the controls on imports and exports and on shipping and trade, deemed essential by the founders of the Republic would have been impossible without implementation by an honest, resourceful, and efficient Customs Service; Whereas the Collector of Customs, the Customs House, and the Customs officer have stood for 200 years as the symbols of Federal authority in the ports and on the waterfronts; Whereas after 200 years the ever more complex demands of our economy and our civilization require the Customs Service of the Department of the Treasury to remain alert and ready to perform on short notice a widening variety of tasks; Whereas the men and women of the United States Customs Service have been the first line of defense against the entry into the United States of illicit drugs and other contraband goods; Whereas the United States Customs Service has protected the economic well-being of the Nation against predatory trade practices and violation of intellectual property rights; Whereas the United States Customs Service is one of the oldest of the Federal agencies, having been created by the 5th Act of the 1st Congress; and Whereas the United States Customs Service was the source of the creation of many Federal agencies, is the principal United States border agency, and enforces all laws of the United States at our border: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That 1989 is designated as “United States Customs Service 200th Anniversary Year”, and the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the year with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Aug. 11, 1989

[S. J. Res. 78]

 Whereas hospice care has been demonstrated to be a humanitarian way for terminally ill patients to approach the end of their lives in comfort with appropriate, competent, and compassionate care in an environment of personal individuality and dignity; Whereas hospice advocates care for the patient and family by attending to their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs and specifically, the pain and grief they experience; Whereas hospice care is provided by an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, psychological and spiritual counselors, and community volunteers trained in the hospice concept of care; Whereas hospice is becoming a full partner in the Nation’s health care system; Whereas the enactment of a permanent medicare hospice benefit and an optional medicare hospice benefit makes it possible for many more Americans to have the opportunity to elect to receive hospice care; Whereas private insurance carriers and employers have recognized the value of hospice care by the inclusion of hospice benefits in health care coverage packages; and Whereas there remains a great need to increase public awareness of the benefits of hospice care: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the month of November in 1989 and 1990 is designated as “National Hospice Month”. The President is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon all government agencies, the health care community, appropriate private organizations, and people of the United States to observe each of those months with appropriate forums, programs and activities designed to encourage national recognition of and support for hospice care as a humane response to the needs of the terminally ill and as a viable component of the health care system in this country.

[S. J. Res. 126]

 Whereas August 4, 1990, marks the 200th anniversary of the Act of August 4, 1790, by which Congress authorized 10 revenue cutters requested by Alexander Hamilton for the purpose of interdicting violators of the customs laws; Whereas the seagoing service which began with those first 10 cutters lives on in the form of the service now known as the “United States Coast Guard”; Whereas the Coast Guard has served this Nation well, in war and peace, in both the defense of this Nation against foreign enemies and against the use of the sea for crimes against the Nation; Whereas the Coast Guard has also served this Nation well in protecting against the perils of the sea, by rescuing those in danger at sea, maintaining aids to navigation, and regulating the safety of vessels; Whereas the Coast Guard, despite its small size, has served the Nation in these and in many other areas with efficiency and gallantry; Whereas the Coast Guard’s present-day battle against the importation of drugs by sea reminds us of the origins of the Coast Guard with those first 10 cutters 200 years ago, and of the other essential services performed by the Coast Guard; and Whereas the bicentennial of the Coast Guard will be commemorated during the period beginning August 4, 1989, and ending August 4, 1990: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the Congress of the United States hereby gives recognition to the two centuries of service by the United States Coast Guard and authorizes and requests the President to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the Nation to share in the pride and satisfaction enjoyed by the dedicated and committed members of the United States Coast Guard during the commemoration of this bicentennial.

Joint Resolution Designating Labor Day Weekend, September 2 through 4, 1989, as “National Drive for Life Weekend”

Aug. 11, 1989

[S.J. Res. 127]

 Whereas drunk driving is the most frequently committed crime in the United States, with arrests for driving while intoxicated totaling more than three times the number of arrests for all violent crimes combined; Whereas one individual in the United States was killed every twenty-two minutes in a drunk-driving-related crash in 1988, an average of sixty-five individuals each day; Whereas more than twenty-three thousand individuals were killed in the United States in drunk-driving-related crashes in 1988; Whereas two out of every five individuals in the United States will be involved in a drunk-driving-related crash at some point in their lives; Whereas the estimates of the economic costs of drunk driving in the United States are as high as $24 billion; Whereas Drive for Life is a public awareness campaign which asks all Americans to pledge to be responsible by driving sober on the Drive for Life Day and thereby demonstrate a commitment to reduce significantly the tragedies of drunk driving, and which serves to educate the public about the dangers of drunk driving; Whereas Americans are also asked to turn on their headlights while driving on Drive for Life Day as a remembrance of those killed by drunk driving; Whereas on the second annual National Drive for Life Day, the toll of individuals killed in drunk-driving-related crashes in the United States was 28.6 per centum lower than the number of deaths due to drunk-driving-related crashes on Labor Day weekend Saturday, in 1987, reflecting the success of this campaign; Whereas the second annual National Drive for Life campaign featured endorsements from all fifty Governors, more than two hundred and seventy-five mayors, and all fifty State police departments; Whereas the third annual National Drive for Life Day will occur on September 2, 1989, the Saturday of the Labor Day weekend, when drunk-driving-related crashes are traditionally at their peak: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the Labor Day week-103 STAT. 562end beginning on September 2, 1989, is designated as “National Drive for Life Weekend”. The President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling on the people of the United States to observe that weekend with a pledge to be responsible by driving sober and encouraging others to do the same.

Joint Resolution To designate the week beginning September 1, 1989, as “World War II Remembrance Week”

Aug. 14, 1989

[H.J. Res. 221]

 Whereas on September 1, 1939, troops of the German Third Reich launched a surprise attack upon Poland and began the military actions that led to World War II; Whereas the Governments of Japan, Italy, and other states subsequently joined Nazi Germany in attacking their neighboring states to bolster their national pride and achieve imperialistic economic advantages; Whereas the United Kingdom, France, the United States, and many other nations declared war upon the aggressors; Whereas as a result of the six-year conflict that ensued over fifteen million combatants were killed and over twenty-four million noncombatants died; Whereas the warring nations suffered nearly $1,090,000,000,000 in costs directly related to the conduct of the war, and the severe disruption and dislocation of the conflict resulted in losses totaling many times that amount to their economies; Whereas as a result of the vicious racist policies of the Government of Nazi Germany and some of its allies, millions of innocent men, women, and children were murdered, including some six million Jews; Whereas as a result of wartime fears and prejudices, millions of innocent individuals were needlessly displaced, interned, harassed, placed under suspicion, and deprived of their property by nations on both sides of the conflict; and Whereas as a consequence of technological innovations which came about as a result of this war, devastating conventional weapons and the threat of nuclear annihilation directly affect growing segments of civilian populations: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That in commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the outbreak of World War II, the week beginning September 1, 1989, is designated “World War II Remembrance Week” and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the period with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.

Joint Resolution To designate the week of October 1, 1989, through October 7, 1989, as “Mental Illness Awareness Week”

Aug. 14, 1989

[S.J. Res. 55]

 Whereas mental illness is a problem of grave concern and consequence in American society, widely but unnecessarily feared and misunderstood; Whereas thirty-one to forty-one million Americans annually suffer from clearly diagnosable mental disorders involving significant disability with respect to employment, attendance at school, or independent living; Whereas more than ten million Americans are disabled for long periods of time by schizophrenia, manic depressive disorder, and major depression; Whereas between 30 and 50 percent of the homeless suffer serious, chronic forms of mental illness; Whereas alcohol, drug, and mental disorders affect almost 19 percent of American adults in any six-month period; Whereas mental illness in at least twelve million children interferes with vital developmental and maturational processes; Whereas mental disorder-related deaths are estimated to be thirty-three thousand, with suicide accounting for at least twenty-nine thousand, although the real number is thought to be at least three times higher; Whereas our growing population of the elderly is particularly vulnerable to mental illness; Whereas estimates indicate that one in ten AIDS patients will develop dementia or other psychiatric problems as the first sign of the disease and as many as two-thirds of AIDS patients will show neuropsychiatric symptoms before they die; Whereas mental disorders result in staggering costs to society, estimated to be in excess of $249,000,000,000 in direct treatment and support and indirect costs to society, including lost productivity; Whereas mental illness is increasingly a treatable disability with excellent prospects for amelioration and recovery when properly recognized; Whereas families of mentally ill persons and those persons themselves have begun to join self-help groups seeking to combat the unfair stigma of the diseases, to support greater national investment in research, and to advocate an adequate continuum of care from hospital to community; Whereas in recent years there have been unprecedented major research developments bringing new methods and technology to the sophisticated and objective study of the functioning of the brain and its linkages to both normal and abnormal behavior; Whereas research in recent decades has led to a wide array of new and more effective modalities of treatment (both somatic and psychosocial) for some of the most incapacitating forms of mental 103 STAT. 591illness (including schizophrenia, major affective disorders, phobias, and phobic disorders); Whereas appropriate treatment of mental illness has been demonstrated to be cost effective in terms of restored productivity, reduced utilization of other health services, and lessened social dependence; and Whereas recent and unparalleled growth in scientific knowledge about mental illness has generated the current emergence of a new threshold of opportunity for future research advances and fruitful application to specific clinical problems: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the seven-day period beginning October 1, 1989, and ending October 7, 1989, is designated as “Mental Illness Awareness Week”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Aug. 14, 1989

[S.J. Res. 67]

 Whereas 1989 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the establishment of the National Wilderness Preservation System; Whereas wilderness areas were created to secure for the American people the benefits of an enduring resource of wilderness; Whereas Congressionally designated wilderness is an area of undeveloped Federal land where earth and nature are untrammeled by man, and where man is a visitor who does not remain; Whereas wilderness areas allow us to preserve ecological, geological, scientific, educational, scenic, and historical values; Whereas wilderness areas provide outstanding opportunities for solitude and primitive recreation; Whereas in 1924 the Gila Wilderness in New Mexico was the first administratively designated wilderness in the nation, and became statutory wilderness in 1964; Whereas there are four hundred and seventy-four units totaling nearly ninety-one million acres in forty-four States that comprise the National Wilderness Preservation System today; Whereas a wide range of individuals, organizations, and agencies with differing perspectives have worked with Congress to promote preservation of wilderness areas; Whereas the Forest Service, the National Park Service, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Bureau of Land Management are entrusted to protect and manage our wilderness heritage; Whereas the Wilderness Act passed in both houses of Congress with a strong sense of bipartisan support; and Whereas the Wilderness Act was signed into law on September 3, 1964 by President Lyndon Baines Johnson: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the week of September 3 through September 9, 1989, is designated as “National Wilderness Week”. The President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the week with appropriate activities and programs.

 Whereas United Airlines Flight 232 tragically crashed while making an emergency landing attempt at the Sioux Gateway Airport in Sioux City, Iowa, on July 19, 1989; Whereas the skills and courage of the pilot, flight crew, and air traffic controllers, and the immediate mobilization of State and local rescue units from Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota, significantly contributed to the survival of 185 of the 296 passengers aboard the flight; Whereas the disaster plan which had been designed by the Woodbury County Disaster Committee was largely responsible for the remarkable success of the rescue effort; Whereas the people of the Sioux City, Iowa, tri-State area mobilized without hesitation to provide aid and comfort to the injured; Whereas by the time that United Airlines Flight 232 touched down, the Sioux Gateway Crash, Fire, and Rescue Squad, the 185th Tactical Fighter Group of the Iowa Air National Guard, members of city police forces and county sheriffs’ departments, municipal firefighters, Red Cross workers, and other local rescue teams were on the scene to immediately begin to help the wounded and transport them for treatment; Whereas the physicians, nurses, and other personnel of St. Luke's Regional Medical Center and the Marian Health Center worked exhaustively to treat the injured; Whereas hundreds of people in the Sioux City, Iowa, tri-State area donated blood at a local bloodbank without solicitation to assist in the treatment efforts; Whereas Briar Cliff College and Morningside College opened their dormitories to the survivors, the families of the survivors, rescue teams, and investigators while residents contributed blankets, clothing, and food; and Whereas had it not been for the remarkable speed, skill, and preparedness of the emergency crews, and the assistance and generosity of the people of the Sioux City, Iowa, tri-State area, the number of survivors would likely have been much lower: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 600 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Sept. 13, 1989

[S.J. Res. 109]

 Whereas there are 107 Historically Black Colleges and Universities in the United States; Whereas such colleges and universities provide the quality education so essential to full participation in a complex, highly technological society; Whereas black colleges and universities have a rich heritage and have played a prominent role in American history; Whereas such institutions have allowed many underprivileged students to attain their full potential through higher education; and Whereas the achievements and goals of the Historically Black Colleges are deserving of national recognition: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the period commencing September 11, 1989, and ending on September 15, 1989, is designated as “National Historically Black Colleges Week” and the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States and interested groups to observe such week with appropriate ceremonies, activities, and programs, thereby demonstrating support for Historically Black Colleges and Universities in the United States.

Sept. 15, 1989

[S.J. Res. 132]

 Whereas alcohol and other drug abuse and dependence are major public health problems that are preventable and treatable; Whereas the economic costs to society of alcohol and drug abuse in 1983 alone were over $176,000,000,000; Whereas alcohol and drug abuse treatment provides an effective means toward independence from substance dependence and is a necessary element in solving the problems associated with alcohol and other drug abuse; Whereas more than one-third of the families of the Nation are affected by alcoholism and an estimated 10,000,000 Americans are problem drinkers or alcoholics; Whereas alcohol abuse during pregnancy is one of the leading causes in the Nation of mental retardation in infants and is the only preventable cause; Whereas over 70 percent of the pediatric acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome cases are related to intravenous drug use by one or both parents of the infant; Whereas drug abuse treatment is an effective way of preventing the spread of AIDS among intravenous drug abusers; Whereas alcoholism and drug dependence are illnesses requiring prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation through the assistance and cooperation of a broad range of Federal, State, and local health, law enforcement, and social service agencies, families, employers, employees, and organizations concerned about alcohol and other drug abuse; and Whereas despite our national policy goal of making treatment available to all who request it, the existence of waiting lists highlights the need to increase the availability and quality of alcohol and other drug treatment services: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 632 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That September 1 through 30, 1989 is designated “National Alcohol and Drug Treatment Month”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe that month with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Joint Resolution To designate October 1989, as “National Quality Month”

Sept. 29, 1989

[H.J. Res. 204]

 Whereas the design and manufacture of quality commercial products and goods and the provision of services of the highest quality are fundamental to the success of the United States in the world marketplace, to the improvement of the standard of living of the people of the United States, and to the security of the United States; Whereas the United States has been a world leader in producing quality goods and services and the leadership has resulted in a world-wide market for the products of the United States; Whereas in recent years, the leadership of the United States in producing quality goods has been challenged by foreign competition and the rate of growth of the productivity of the United States is currently less than the rate of growth of the productivity of some of the competitors of the United States; Whereas a commitment to continuous quality improvement, using recognized quality principles and practices, has been demonstrated to be the most effective way to regain and solidify economic leadership in the world marketplace; Whereas over the past 5 years, virtually every segment of business and industry in the United States and many units of government have adopted quality management principles and experienced resulting dramatic improvements in productivity: Whereas the Federal Government promotes quality through such programs as the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award of the Department of Commerce, the Federal Quality Institute, the President's Council on Management Improvement, the Productivity Improvement Plan of the Department of Defense, and the Excellence Award for Quality and Productivity of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration; Whereas regional quality movements have promoted quality management philosophy and quality management principles and have begun to develop a sense of quality consciousness within particular regions of the Nation; Whereas cognizance of quality, like cognizance of safety, is an attitude that once instilled in individuals becomes ingrained; Whereas implementation of quality principles in manufacturing and service operations increases productivity through emphasis on waste reduction, defect prevention, and improved reliability of products and services; Whereas the American Society for Quality Control has been a leader in the development, promotion, and application of quality and quality-related technology since 1946; 103 STAT. 669 Whereas the American Society for Quality Control, together with other national professional organizations, business, industry, government, and academia, is sponsoring activities to observe National Quality Month to promote awareness of the need for quality in production and services throughout the United States; and Whereas the theme of National Quality Month will be “Quality First”, to emphasize that quality is an integral part of the processes that create goods and services: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That October 1989 is designated as “National Quality Month”, and the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the month with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
Approved September 29, 1989.

Oct. 2, 1989

[S.J. Res. 146]

 Whereas the principle of religious liberty was an essential part of the founding of our Nation, and must be safeguarded with eternal vigilance by all men and women of good will; Whereas religious liberty has been endangered throughout history by bigotry and indifference; Whereas the first amendment to the Constitution of the United States guarantees the inalienable rights of individuals to worship freely or not be religious, as they choose, without interference from governmental or other agencies; Whereas the Constitution of the United States ensures religious freedom to all of the people of the United States; Whereas at Touro Synagogue in 1790, President George Washington issued his famous letter declaring “to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance”; Whereas the Touro Synagogue letter advocating the doctrine of mutual respect and understanding was issued more than 1 year before the adoption of the Bill of Rights; Whereas the letter of President Washington and the Touro Synagogue have become national symbols of the commitment of the United States to religious freedom; Whereas throughout our Nation's history, religion has contributed to the welfare of believers and of society generally, and has been a force for maintaining high standards for morality, ethics, and justice; Whereas religion is most free when it is observed voluntarily at private initiative, uncontaminated by Government interference and unconstrained by majority preference; and Whereas religious liberty can be protected only through the efforts of all persons of good will in a united commitment: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 103 STAT. 674
That the week of September 24, 1989, is hereby declared to be “Religious Freedom Week”, wherein members of ail faiths or none, may join together in support of religious tolerance and religious liberty for all.

Oct. 6, 1989

[S.J. Res. 138]

 Whereas hunger and malnutrition remain daily facts of life for hundreds of millions of people throughout the world; Whereas the children of the world suffer the most serious effects of hunger and malnutrition, with millions of children dying each year from hunger-related illness and disease, and many others suffering permanent physical or mental impairment because of vitamin or protein deficiencies; Whereas the United States and the people of the United States have a long tradition of demonstrating humanitarian concern for the hungry and malnourished people of the world; Whereas there is growing concern in the United States and around the world for environmental protection and the dangers posed to future food security from misuse and overuse of precious natural resources of land, air, and water and the subsequent degradation of the biosphere; Whereas efforts to resolve the world hunger problem are critical to the maintenance of world peace and, therefore, to the security of the United States; Whereas the Congress is particularly concerned with the continuing food problems of Africa and is supportive of the efforts being made there to reform and rationalize agricultural policies to better meet the food needs of Africans; Whereas the United States, as the largest producer and trader of food in the world, has a key role to play in assisting countries and people to improve their ability to feed themselves; Whereas although progress has been made in reducing the incidence of hunger and malnutrition in the United States, certain groups, notably Native Americans, migrant workers, the elderly, and children, remain vulnerable to malnutrition and related diseases; Whereas the Congress is acutely aware of the paradox of enormous surplus production capacity in the United States despite the desperate need for food by people throughout the world; Whereas the United States and other countries should develop and continually evaluate national policies concerning food, farmland, and nutrition to achieve the well-being and protection of all people and particularly those most vulnerable to malnutrition and related diseases; 103 STAT. 688 Whereas improved agricultural policies, including farmer incentives, are necessary in many developing countries to increase food production and economic growth; Whereas private enterprise and the primacy of the independent family farmer have been basic to the development of an agricultural economy in the United States and have made the United States capable of meeting the food needs of most of the people of the United States; Whereas increasing farm foreclosures threaten to destroy the independent family farmer and weaken the agricultural economy in the United States; Whereas conservation of natural resources is necessary for the United States to remain the largest producer of food in the world and to continue to aid hungry and malnourished people of the world; Whereas participation by private voluntary organizations and businesses, working with national governments and the international community, is essential in the search for ways to increase food production in developing countries and improve food distribution to hungry and malnourished people; Whereas the member nations of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations unanimously designated October 16 of each year as World Food Day because of the need to increase public awareness of world hunger problems; Whereas past observances of World Food Day have been supported by proclamations by the Congress, the President, the 50 States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the territories and possessions of the United States, and by programs of the Department of Agriculture, other Federal departments and agencies, and the governments and peoples of more than 140 other nations; Whereas more than 400 private voluntary organizations and thousands of community leaders are participating in the planning of World Food Day observances in 1989, and a growing number of these organizations and leaders are using such day as a focal point for year-round programs; and Whereas the people of the United States can express their concern for the plight of hungry and malnourished people throughout the world by fasting and donating food and money for such people: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That October 16, 1989, and October 16, 1990, are designated as “World Food Day”, and the 103 STAT. 689President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe World Food Day with appropriate ceremonies and activities, including worship services, fasting, educational endeavors, and the establishment of year-round food and health programs and policies.

 Whereas the ability to maintain an internationally competitive and productive economy and a high standard of living depends on the development and utilization of new technologies; Whereas new technologies require skills that are currently lacking in the national workforce; Whereas experts in both the public and private sectors predict that a shortage of skilled entry-level workers will exist through the remainder of this century; Whereas young people in the United States are experiencing higher than normal unemployment rates because many of them lack the skills necessary to perform the entry-level jobs that are currently available; Whereas these young people will continue to experience higher than normal unemployment rates unless they develop the skills necessary to perform the entry-level jobs that become available; Whereas American workers who face dislocation due to plant closures and industrial relocation need special training and education to prepare for new jobs and new opportunities; and Whereas a National Job Skills Week can serve to focus attention on present and future workforce needs, to encourage public and private cooperation in job training and educational efforts, and to highlight the technological changes underway in the workplace: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the week of October 8, 1989, through October 14, 1989, is designated as “National Job Skills Week”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Oct. 13, 1989

[S.J. Res. 122]

 Whereas the past two decades have brought a greater and more enlightened attitude in the care and training of the developmentally disabled; Whereas one such condition which has undergone considerable reevaluation is that of Down syndrome—a condition which, just a short time ago, was often stigmatized as a mentally retarded condition which relegated its victims to lives of passivity in institutions and back rooms; Whereas through the efforts of concerned physicians, teachers and parent groups such as the National Down Syndrome Congress, programs are being put in place to educate new parents of babies with Down syndrome, to develop special education classes within mainstream programs in schools, to provide for vocational training in preparation for entering the work force, and to prepare young adults with Down syndrome for independent living in the community; Whereas the cost of such services designed to help individuals with Down syndrome move into their rightful place in our society is but a tiny fraction of the cost of institutionalization; Whereas not only the improvement in educational opportunities for those with Down syndrome, but also the advancement in medical science is adding to a brighter outlook for individuals born with this chromosomal configuration; and Whereas public awareness and acceptance of the capabilities of children with Down syndrome can greatly facilitate their being mainstreamed in our society: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That October 1989 and 1990 are designated as “National Down Syndrome Month” and that the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the designated month with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.

Joint Resolution To designate October 22 through October 29. 1989. as “National Red Ribbon Week for a Drug-Free America”.

Oct. 24, 1989

[S.J. Res. 213]

 Whereas alcohol and other drug abuse has reached epidemic proportions and is of major concern to all Americans; Whereas alcohol and other drug abuse is a major public health threat and is one of the largest causes of preventable disease, disability, and death in the United States today; Whereas alcohol and other drug abuse costs American society nearly $100,000,000,000 a year; Whereas illegal drug use does not discriminate on the basis of age, gender, or socioeconomic status, as evidenced by the facts that— (1) 23,000,000 Americans age 12 and over currently use illicit drugs; (2) a nationwide Weekly Reader survey revealed that of the 68,000 fourth graders polled, 34 percent reported peer pressure to try wine coolers, 41 percent to smoke, and 24 percent to use crack or cocaine; and (3) the 15- to 24-year-old group is dying at a faster rate than any other age group because of accidents, homicides, and suicides, many of which are related to drug and alcohol abuse; Whereas the drug problem appears to be insurmountable, but Americans have begun to lay the foundation to combat it; Whereas we must continue the important strides we have made in our efforts to prevent alcohol and other drug abuse; Whereas the most recent national polls reveal that progress has been made in that— (1) since 1979, there has been a steady decline in the use of marijuana on a daily basis among high school seniors, and in 1987, marijuana use among this group was at its lowest level in 11 years; (2) in 1987 there was a significant drop in the use of cocaine, and the number of high school seniors associating great risk with trying cocaine once or twice rose from 34 percent in 1986 to 48 percent in 1987; and (3) illicit drug use of stimulants and sedatives continues to decline among high school seniors, college students, and young adults in general; Whereas according to public opinion polls the American people consider that drug abuse is one of the most serious domestic problems facing this Nation and have begun to take steps to fight it; Whereas the National Federation of Parents for Drug-Free Youth has declared October 22 through October 29, 1989, as “National Red Ribbon Week for a Drug-Free America”, and has called for a comprehensive public awareness, prevention, and education program involving thousands of parent and community groups across the country; 103 STAT. 762 Whereas other outstanding groups, including the National Parents Resource Institute for Drug Education, the Council for Drug Education, Just Say No International, the National Crime Prevention Council, the Chiefs of Police National Drug Task Force, the National Hispanic Family Against Drug Abuse, national youth organizations, national service organizations, and others, have demonstrated leadership, creativity, and determination in achieving a drug-free America; Whereas any use of an illegal drug is unacceptable, and the illegal use of a legal drug cannot be tolerated; and Whereas alcohol and other drug abuse destroys lives, spawns rampant crime, undermines our economy, and threatens our national security: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the week of October 22 through October 29, 1989, is designated as “National Red Ribbon Week for a Drug-Free America”. The United States recognizes and commends the hard work and dedication of concerned parents, youth, law enforcement, educators, business leaders, religious leaders, private sector organizations, and Government leaders, and urges that meetings, conferences, and fundraising activities that support community and alcohol education take place during National Red Ribbon Week for a Drug-Free America with other appropriate activities, events, and educational campaigns. Every American is encouraged to wear and display red ribbons during National Red Ribbon Week for a Drug-Free America to present and symbolize their commitment to a healthy, drug-free lifestyle, and to develop an attitude of intolerance concerning the use of drugs.

Joint Resolution To designate October 29, 1989, as “Fire Safety at Home—Change Your Clock, Change Your Battery Day”.

Oct. 30, 1989

[S.J. Res. 177]

 Whereas every year, 500,000 fires ravage the homes of Americans, resulting in over 6,000 deaths and 300,000 injuries; Whereas home fires are the leading cause of accidental death and serious injury among children in the United States; Whereas senior citizens, families in substandard housing, and the physically and mentally disabled are at high risk of becoming victims of fire; Whereas 3 out of 4 homes have at least 1 smoke detector, but an estimated one-half are inoperable because of worn or missing batteries; Whereas the International Association of Fire Chiefs estimates that the annual practice of changing batteries in smoke detectors would save thousands of lives and billions of dollars in property damage; Whereas the Congressional Fire Services Caucus, with its broad-based bipartisan membership, reflects the concern of Congress for fire safety and its dedication to making it an important national priority; Whereas the designation of a special day to remind Americans to properly maintain their smoke detectors, timed to coincide with the autumnal return to Standard Time, would greatly diminish this human tragedy; and Whereas October 29, 1989, is the day Americans in jurisdictions on Daylight Saving Time return their clocks to Standard Time: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That October 29, 1989, is designated as “Fire Safety at Home—Change Your Clock, Change Your Battery Day”, and the President is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe that day by maintaining their homes' first line of defense against fire by changing the batteries in their smoke detectors when they reset their clocks to Standard Time.

[S.J. Res. 86] Whereas there are more than 800,000 nonprofit philanthropic organizations in the United States; Whereas such organizations employ more than 10,000,000 individuals, including 4,500,000 volunteers; Whereas the people of the United States contributed approximately $94,000,000,000 in 1987 to support such organizations; Whereas philanthropic organizations are responsible for enhancing the quality of life of people throughout this Nation and the world; Whereas the people of this Nation owe a great debt to the schools, churches, museums, art and music centers, youth groups, hospitals, research institutions, and community service organizations, and to the institutions and organizations which aid and comfort disadvantaged, sick or elderly individuals; and Whereas the people of the United States should demonstrate gratitude and support for philanthropic organizations and for the efforts, skills and resources of individuals who carry out the missions of such organizations: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Nov. 3, 1989

[S.J. Res. 120]

 Whereas geography is the study of people, their environments, and their resources; Whereas the United States of America is a truly unique nation with diverse landscapes, bountiful resources, a distinctive multiethnic population, and a rich cultural heritage, all of which contribute to the status of the United States as a world power; Whereas, historically, geography has aided Americans in understanding the wholeness of their vast nation and the great abundance of its natural resources; Whereas geography today offers perspectives and information in understanding ourselves, our relationship to the Earth, and our interdependence with other peoples of the world; Whereas statistics illustrate that a significant number of American students could not find the United States on a world map, could not identify Alaska and Texas as the Nation’s largest States, and could not name the New England States; Whereas, according to a recent Gallup poll, Americans ranked among the bottom third on an international test of geography knowledge, and those age eighteen to twenty-four came in last; Whereas geography has been offered to fewer than one in ten United States secondary school students as part of the curriculum; Whereas departments of geography are being eliminated from American institutes of higher learning, thus endangering the discipline of geography in the United States; Whereas traditional geography has virtually disappeared from the curricula of American schools while still being taught as a basic subject in other countries, including the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, and the Soviet Union; Whereas an ignorance of geography, foreign languages, and cultures places the United States at a disadvantage with other countries in matters of business, politics, and the environment; Whereas the United States is a nation of worldwide involvements and global influence, the responsibilities of which demand an understanding of the lands, languages, and cultures of the world; Whereas one-third of adult Americans cannot name four of the sixteen NATO member nations, and another one-third cannot name any; and Whereas national attention must be focused on the integral role that knowledge of world geography plays in preparing citizens of the United States for the future of an increasingly interdependent and interconnected world: Now, therefore, be it 103 STAT. 829 Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the period commencing November 12, 1989, and ending November 18, 1989, is designated as “Geography Awareness Week”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

[H.J. Res. 131]

 Whereas the multifaceted art form of tap dancing is a manifestation of the cultural heritage of our Nation, reflecting the fusion of African and European cultures into an exemplification of the American spirit, that should be, through documentation, and archival and performance support, transmitted to succeeding generations; Whereas tap dancing has had a historic and continuing influence on other genres of American art, including music, vaudeville, Broadway musical theater, and film, as well as other dance forms; Whereas tap dancing is perceived by the world as a uniquely American art form; Whereas tap dancing is a joyful and powerful aesthetic force providing a source of enjoyment and an outlet for creativity and self-expression for Americans on both the professional and amateur level; Whereas it is in the best interest of the people of our Nation to preserve, promote, and celebrate this uniquely American art form; Whereas Bill “Bojangles” Robinson made an outstanding contribution to the art of tap dancing on both stage and film through the unification of diverse stylistic and racial elements; and Whereas May 25, as the anniversary of the birth of Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, is an appropriate day on which to refocus the attention of the Nation on American tap dancing: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

That the month of November 1989 is designated as “National Diabetes Month”. The President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe that month with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Nov. 13, 1989

[S.J. Res. 73]

 Whereas Gaucher’s disease is caused by the failure of the body to produce an essential enzyme; Whereas the absence of such enzyme causes the body to store abnormal quantities of lipids in the liver and spleen and frequently has an adverse effect on tissues in the body, particularly bone tissue; Whereas among Jewish persons, Gaucher's disease is the most common inherited disorder affecting the metabolism of lipids, which are one of the principle structural components of living cells; Whereas there is no known cure for Gaucher’s disease and no successful treatment of the symptoms of the disease; Whereas the increased awareness and understanding of Gaucher’s disease by the people of the United States can aid in the development of a treatment and cure for the disease; Whereas the National Gaucher's Disease Foundation provides funds for research in the United States with respect to the disease; and Whereas research and clinical programs with respect to Gaucher's disease should be increased: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the week beginning October 29, 1989, is designated as “Gaucher’s Disease Awareness Week”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

[S.J. Res. 194]

 Whereas glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness among individuals in the United States; Whereas glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness among black individuals in the United States; Whereas the risk of blindness from glaucoma significantly increases in older age groups; Whereas diabetes increases the risk of developing glaucoma; Whereas at least two million individuals in the United States have glaucoma and at least 50 per centum of the individuals with glaucoma are unaware of it; Whereas eighty thousand individuals in the United States are already blind from glaucoma and five million to ten million Americans are believed to have undiagnosed and elevated intraocular pressure, often a silent symptom of glaucoma; Whereas early detection is critical to preventing blindness from glaucoma; and Whereas periodic comprehensive eye examinations are the best means of detecting glaucoma and the number of individuals that receive examinations could be increased through greater public understanding, awareness, and education: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That November 12 through 18, 1989, is designated as “National Former Prisoners of War Recognition Day”, and the President of the United States is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe the week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

 Whereas there are more than 1,200,000 women veterans in the Nation, representing 4.2 percent of the total veteran population; Whereas the number of women serving in the Armed Forces and the number of women veterans continue to increase; Whereas women veterans have contributed greatly to the Nation’s security through honorable military service which in many cases involved great hardship and danger; Whereas the contributions and sacrifices of women veterans on behalf of the Nation deserve greater public recognition and appreciation; Whereas the special needs of women veterans, especially in the area of health care, have often been overlooked or inadequately addressed by the Federal Government; Whereas this lack of attention to the special needs of women veterans has discouraged or prevented many women veterans from taking full advantage of the benefits and services to which they are entitled; and Whereas designating a week to recognize women veterans in November 1989 will help further important gains made by women veterans following National Women Veterans Recognition Week in November 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, and 1988: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Nov. 17, 1989

[S.J. Res. 215]

 Whereas Congress recognizes and supports Department of Defense policies to recruit, train, equip, retain, and field a military force that is capable of preserving peace and protecting the vital interests of the United States and its allies; Whereas military families shoulder the responsibility of providing emotional support for their service members; Whereas in times of war and military action military families have demonstrated their patriotism through their steadfast support and commitment to the Nation; Whereas the emotional and mental readiness of United States military personnel around the world is tied to the well-being and satisfaction of their families; Whereas the quality of life that the Armed Forces provide to military families is a key factor in the retention of military personnel; Whereas the people of the United States are truly indebted to military families for facing adversities, including extended separations from their service members, frequent household moves due to reassignments, and restrictions on their employment and educational opportunities; Whereas 68 percent of officers and 48 percent of enlisted personnel in the Armed Forces are married; Whereas families of active duty military personnel (including individuals other than spouses or children) account for more than two million seven hundred thousand of the more than four million eight hundred thousand in the active duty community, and spouses and children of members of the Reserves in paid status account for more than one million five hundred thousand of the more than two million seven hundred thousand in the Reserves community; Whereas spouses, children, and other dependents living abroad with members of the Armed Forces total nearly five hundred thousand and these family members at times face feelings of cultural isolation and financial hardship; and Whereas military families are devoted to the overall mission of the Department of Defense and have accepted the role of the United States as the military leader and protector of the free world: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That— (1) Congress acknowledges and appreciates the commitment and devotion of present and former military families and the sacrifices that such families have made on behalf of the Nation; and 103 STAT. 950 (2) November 20, 1989, is designated as “National Military Families Recognition Day”, and the President is authorized and requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe such day with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.
