Whereas the National Family Partnership, Governors, Attorneys General, Parent

        United States annually cosponsor October 23 through October 31 as Red 
        Ribbon Week;
Whereas the objective of Red Ribbon Week is to promote drug-free communities 
        through drug prevention efforts, education, parental involvement, and 
        community-wide support;
Whereas drug abuse is one of the major challenges our Nation faces in securing a 
        safe and healthy future for our children; and
Whereas parents, youth, schools, businesses, law enforcement and religious 
        institutions, service organizations, senior citizens, medical and 
        military personnel, sports teams, and individuals throughout the Nation 
        demonstrate their commitment to drug-free, healthy lifestyles by wearing 
        and displaying red ribbons during this weeklong celebration: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That the Congress--
            (1) supports the goals of Red Ribbon Week; and
            (2) encourages all Americans to promote drug-free 
        communities and to participate in drug prevention activities to 
        show support for healthy, productive, drug-free lifestyles.
