[Congressional Bills 103th Congress] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office] [H. Con. Res. 176 Referred in Senate (RFS)] 103d CONGRESS 2d Session H. CON. RES. 176 _______________________________________________________________________ IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES May 25 (legislative day, May 16), 1994 Received and referred to the Committee on Labor and Human Resources _______________________________________________________________________ CONCURRENT RESOLUTION To recognize and encourage the convening of a National Silver Haired Congress. Whereas many States have encouraged and facilitated the creation of senior citizen legislative and advocacy bodies; Whereas in creating such bodies these States have provided many older Americans the opportunity to express concerns, promote appropriate interests, and advance the common good by influencing legislation and actions of State government; and Whereas a National Silver Haired Congress, with representatives from each State, would provide a national forum for a nonpartisan evaluation of grassroots solutions to concerns shared by an increasing number of older Americans: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That the Congress hereby recognizes and encourages the convening of an annual National Silver Haired Congress in the City of Washington, District of Columbia. Passed the House of Representatives May 23, 1994. Attest: DONNALD K. ANDERSON, Clerk.
