                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
   To express the sense of Congress in support of consumer labeling 
utilizing an American and foreign flag program, labeling all goods and 
                               services.

Whereas it is important to secure American growth in a competitive global 
        economy;
Whereas many Americans would prefer to buy American goods and services;
Whereas a program labeling all goods and services with American flags and 
        foreign flags, provides accessible consumer information to enable 
        citizens to identify products that are made by Americans with parts that 
        are made in America in companies that are American owned;
Whereas providing this information by utilizing American and foreign flags, 
        enables Americans to buy American products, promotes American 
        enterprises, and helps protect American jobs;
Whereas a program of American and foreign flag labeling empowers industries in 
        the United States by emphasizing the importance of United States product 
        integrity in relation to the future of the economic survival of the 
        United States;
Whereas over two dozen major American companies have begun labeling their 
        products with American flags and foreign flags; and
Whereas the South Dakota and Iowa legislatures have endorsed the concept of 
        consumers utilizing flags: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), 
That the Congress supports consumer labeling utilizing an American and 
foreign flag program for labeling all goods and services.
