H. Res. 1016

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                    September 26, 2006.
Whereas the men and women of our armed forces play a central role in preserving 
        our Nation's freedom;
Whereas disabled veterans have sacrificed greatly for their country;
Whereas one way for our Nation to repay its debt to those disabled veterans is 
        to help disabled veterans return to their previous lifestyle;
Whereas Congress relies on knowledgeable staff to help formulate policy;
Whereas disabled veterans provide unique perspectives on a range of issues, 
        especially regarding national security;
Whereas Members who are veterans or reservists have played a leading role 
        throughout the history of Congress; and
Whereas Congress wishes to give disabled veterans the opportunity to work in 
        their government as a benefit to those disabled veterans as well the 
        members of Congress on whose staffs they will serve: Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives encourages the Members, 
committees, and all other offices of the House to hire disabled veterans, and to 
use the resources that the Committee on House Administration will direct the 
Chief Administrative Officer to provide to find qualified disabled veterans to 
fill positions in these offices.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
