 SENATE RESOLUTION 10--MEMORIALIZING THE UNBORN BY LOWERING THE UNITED 
     STATES FLAG TO HALF-STAFF ON THE 22ND DAY OF JANUARY EACH YEAR

  Mr. BRAUN (for himself, Mr. Lankford, Mr. Daines, Mr. Hagerty, Mr. 
Mullin, and Mrs. Blackburn) submitted the following resolution; which 
was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary:

                               S. Res. 10

       Whereas, on January 22, 1973, the majority of the members 
     of the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that abortion 
     was a right secured by the Constitution of the United States;
       Whereas, on June 24, 2022, the majority of the members of 
     the Supreme Court of the United States overturned Roe v. 
     Wade, 410 U.S. 113 (1973), to affirm that the Constitution of 
     the United States does not confer a right to abortion; and
       Whereas, since January 22, 1973, more than 60,000,000 
     unborn children have perished: Now, therefore, be it
       Resolved, That the Senate--
       (1) supports the recognition of the Day of Tears in the 
     United States on the 22nd day of January each year;
       (2) encourages the people of the United States to lower 
     their flags to half-staff to mourn and honor the innocents 
     who have lost their lives to abortion; and
       (3) encourages legislators to enact laws that respect the 
     sanctity of life.
