  Mr. RIEGLE submitted the following resolution; which was referred to 
the Committee on the Judiciary

                              S. Res. 213

       Whereas Senior Power Day is a Michigan organization which 
     annually brings together 4,000 to 8,000 senior citizens in 
     order to educate them about issues concerning senior citizens 
     and to communicate with Federal and State lawmakers about 
     those issues;
       Whereas Senior Power Day is officially recognized by the 
     White House Conference on Aging;
       Whereas on May 18, 1994, Senior Power Day again will gather 
     at the State Capitol in Lansing, Michigan;
       Whereas this year's gathering is the 20th such gathering;
       Whereas the theme of this year's gathering is ``Senior 
     Power: Celebrating 20 Years of Effective Advocacy'';
       Whereas as part of this year's gathering, Senior Power Day 
     will host a hearing of the Special Committee on Aging of the 
     United States Senate; and
       Whereas Senior Power Day advocates issues of concern to 
     citizens of all ages and has emphasized the need to adopt a 
     national health insurance plan and has stressed the 
     intergenerational benefits of adequate health care, long-term 
     care, and school reform: Now, therefore, be it
       Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that May 18, 
     1994, should be recognized as ``Senior Power Day''.
