        principles by which the United States is governed;
Whereas Article I of the United States Constitution establishes the legislative 
        branch;
Whereas the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land;
Whereas the United States Constitution is the world's oldest written national 
        constitution;
Whereas the United States Constitution confers honor and responsibility upon 
        Members of Congress;
Whereas the United States Constitution should be known by those who legislate; 
        and
Whereas the United States Constitution is a dynamic governing document of and 
        for the people of the United States: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives urges every 
Representative Member, officer, and employee of the House of 
Representatives to read, ponder, and reflect upon the principles of the 
United States Constitution on Constitution Day.
