 Recognizing the REALTORS Land Institute on the occasion of its 75th 
                              anniversary.

Whereas, in 1944, the REALTORS Land Institute was founded by 20 land 
        specialists who met at the Drake Hotel in Chicago, Illinois, to 
        establish a national organization that would provide education, 
        information, marketing opportunities, and broker networking to enhance 
        the ability of their members to conduct business as recognized 
        professional land use specialists and, through collective action, 
        preserve private property rights;
Whereas, as of 2019, the REALTORS Land Institute has been an affiliate of the 
        National Association of REALTORS for 75 years;
Whereas, in 2019, the REALTORS Land Institute celebrates 75 years of serving 
        land owners, users, and Realtors throughout the United States and 
        Canada;
Whereas the members of the REALTORS Land Institute have developed international 
        marketing capabilities and networks throughout the world;
Whereas the REALTORS Land Institute is comprised of members who subscribe to a 
        strict code of ethics and to just and equitable principles in real 
        estate transactions;
Whereas the REALTORS Land Institute encourages continuing education and rewards 
        members who complete an extensive education program and service to the 
        land industry with a national designation of Accredited Land Consultant 
        (commonly known as ``ALC''); and
Whereas the REALTORS Land Institute is a national professional trade 
        association, dedicated to advancing the effective use of the most 
        precious commodity in the United States, land: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) recognizes the REALTORS Land Institute on the occasion 
        of its 75th anniversary; and
            (2) respectfully requests that the Secretary of the Senate 
        transmit a copy of this resolution to the REALTORS Land 
        Institute.
