   Congratulating the Seattle Storm for their remarkable season and 
 winning the 2010 Women's National Basketball Association Championship.

Whereas, on September 16, 2010, the Seattle Storm defeated the Atlanta Dream by 
        a score of 87 to 84 to win the Women's National Basketball Association 
        Championship;
Whereas the Seattle Storm's victory is the second Women's National Basketball 
        Association Championship in the 11-year history of the franchise, as the 
        Storm also won the championship in 2004;
Whereas the Seattle Storm had a regular season record of 28-6, went undefeated 
        at home, and won all 7 postseason games;
Whereas Seattle Storm owners Dawn Tudeau, Lisa Brummel, Anne Levinson, and Ginny 
        Gilder are the first all-female ownership group to win a professional 
        sports title; and
Whereas the entire State of Washington is proud of the accomplishments of the 
        Seattle Storm organization and the dedication of the Seattle Storm fans: 
        Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
            (1) congratulates the Seattle Storm for their remarkable 
        season and winning the 2010 Women's National Basketball 
        Association Championship; and
            (2) requests the Clerk of the House to transmit an enrolled 
        copy of this resolution to the Seattle Storm for appropriate 
        display.
