 Expressing the unconditional support of the House of Representatives 
                 for the members of the National Guard.

Whereas the National Guard has made tremendous contributions in support of 
        United States military operations around the world;
Whereas, between September 11, 2001, and March 31, 2007, 235,703 members of the 
        National Guard have deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan;
Whereas members of the National Guard typically leave other employment to serve 
        on active duty in the Armed Forces;
Whereas the National Guard has responded admirably in times of domestic 
        emergencies to lead rescue and recovery efforts; and
Whereas many members of the National Guard have made the ultimate sacrifice, 
        giving their lives in service to the United States: Now, therefore, be 
        it
    Resolved,  That the House of Representatives--
            (1) unconditionally supports the members of the National 
        Guard;
            (2) recognizes the tremendous sacrifices made by members of 
        the National Guard on behalf of the United States;
            (3) will do everything in its power to ensure that the 
        National Guard receives the resources it needs; and
            (4) will support the families of members of the National 
        Guard who have died while serving on active duty.
