                               RESOLUTION


 
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with respect to a 
nationwide Town Hall meeting on the new foreign policy doctrines of the 
                               President.

    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives that 
the President should issue a proclamation--
            (1) calling upon all people of the United States to 
        participate in a Town Hall meeting to discuss the following 
        propositions:
                    (A) That the moral standing of the United States in 
                the world is the most important element of domestic 
                security.
                    (B) That unprovoked attacks by the United States on 
                other countries offend American values and anger the 
                rest of the world.
                    (C) That the financial cost to the United States of 
                acting alone in international affairs generally and in 
                the war and reconstruction of Iraq specifically will 
                compel the Congress to sacrifice funding for schools, 
                child care, health care, retirement security, and other 
                domestic priorities;
            (2) pledging that the President will preside over the Town 
        Hall meeting, answer the people's questions, and hear the 
        opinions of the people of the United States on these matters of 
        national significance; and
            (3) calling upon the local and national television and 
        radio media to make available their broadcast capabilities to 
        allow Americans from all parts of the country to participate in 
        the Town Hall meeting.
                                 <all>
