H. Res. 912

                In the House of Representatives, U. S.,

                                                     September 6, 2006.
Whereas life insurance is an essential part of a sound financial plan;
Whereas life insurance provides financial security for families by helping 
        surviving members meet immediate and long-term financial obligations and 
        objectives in the event of a premature death in their family;
Whereas approximately 68,000,000 United States citizens lack the adequate level 
        of life insurance coverage needed to ensure a secure financial future 
        for their loved ones;
Whereas life insurance products protect against the uncertainties of life by 
        enabling individuals and families to manage the financial risks of 
        premature death, disability, and long-term care;
Whereas individuals, families, and businesses can benefit from professional 
        insurance and financial planning advice, including an assessment of 
        their life insurance needs; and
Whereas numerous groups supporting life insurance have designated September of 
        2006 as National Life Insurance Awareness Month as a means to encourage 
        consumers to (1) become more aware of their life insurance needs; (2) 
        seek professional advice regarding life insurance; and (3) take the 
        actions necessary to achieve financial security for their loved ones: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives--
            (1) supports the goals and ideals of National Life Insurance 
        Awareness Month; and
            (2) requests that the President issue a proclamation calling on the 
        Federal Government, States, localities, schools, nonprofit 
        organizations, businesses, and the citizens of the United States to 
        observe the month with appropriate programs and activities.
            Attest:

                                                                          Clerk.
