  Mr. STUPAK. Mr. Speaker, I have introduced this resolution along with 
Representatives Curt Weldon and Joe Hoeffel to emphasize the importance 
of crime prevention at the local level and to recognize the efforts of 
National Night Out. I am pleased to say that this resolution has 
bipartisan support, with 64 cosponsors. I would like to specifically 
thank the Chairman Jim Sensenbrenner Ranking Member of the Judiciary 
Committee, the Chairman and Ranking Member of the Crime Subcommittee, 
and the leadership on both sides of the aisle for their help in 
bringing this measure to the floor.
  Our resolution calls upon the President to focus on neighborhood 
crime prevention, community policing programs and reducing school crime 
and to issue a proclamation in support of National Night Out.
