                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
    Congratulating the people of Iraq on their resolve to vote in a 
   national parliamentary election on March 7, 2010, in the face of 
                               adversity.

Whereas the people of Iraq held a national parliamentary election on March 7, 
        2010;
Whereas insurgent terrorists vowed to disrupt the election with a concerted wave 
        of attacks;
Whereas there were a number of explosions in Iraq just before the polls opened;
Whereas Iraqis went to the polls defying the violence to demonstrate their 
        commitment to democracy; and
Whereas the people of the United States respect and admire the people of Iraq 
        for their courage and bravery: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That Congress congratulates the people of Iraq on their resolve to vote 
in a national parliamentary election on March 7, 2010, in the face of 
adversity.
