                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

Whereas United States service personnel have fought, bled, and died in every 
        war, conflict, police action, and military intervention in which the 
        United States has engaged during this century and throughout the 
        Nation's history;
Whereas throughout history, veterans service organizations have ably represented 
        the interests of veterans in Congress and State legislatures across the 
        Nation, and established networks of trained service officers who, at no 
        charge, have helped millions of veterans and their families secure the 
        education, disability compensation, and health care benefits they are 
        rightfully entitled to receive as a result of the military service 
        performed by those veterans; and
Whereas veterans service organizations have been deeply involved in countless 
        local community service projects and have been constant reminders of the 
        American ideals of duty, honor, and national service: Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), 
That the Congress requests that--
            (1) the United States Postal Service issue a series of 
        commemorative postage stamps honoring the legacy and the 
        continuing contributions of veterans service organizations to 
        the United States; and
            (2) the Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee recommend to the 
        Postmaster General that such a series of commemorative postage 
        stamps be issued.

            Passed the Senate October 3 (legislative day, September 
      22), 2000.

            Attest:

                                                             Secretary.
