                               RESOLUTION


 
    To express the sense of the Senate that May 18, 1994, should be 
                  recognized as ``Senior Power Day''.

Whereas Senior Power Day is a Michigan organization which annually brings 
        together 4,000 to 8,000 senior citizens in order to educate them about 
        issues concerning senior citizens and to communicate with Federal and 
        State lawmakers about those issues;
Whereas Senior Power Day is officially recognized by the White House Conference 
        on Aging;
Whereas on May 18, 1994, Senior Power Day again will gather at the State Capitol 
        in Lansing, Michigan;
Whereas this year's gathering is the 20th such gathering;
Whereas the theme of this year's gathering is ``Senior Power: Celebrating 20 
        Years of Effective Advocacy'';
Whereas as part of this year's gathering, Senior Power Day will host a hearing 
        of the Special Committee on Aging of the United States Senate; and
Whereas Senior Power Day advocates issues of concern to citizens of all ages and 
        has emphasized the need to adopt a national health insurance plan and 
        has stressed the intergenerational benefits of adequate health care, 
        long-term care, and school reform: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that May 18, 1994, 
should be recognized as ``Senior Power Day''.
