                            JOINT RESOLUTION


 
To provide a Congressional Medal to the courageous citizen who exposed 
            the conspiracy to murder millions of Americans.

Whereas one or more tobacco companies have known for decades that cigarette 
        smoking is addictive and threatens the health and life of its users;
Whereas one or more tobacco companies have continued to market tobacco products 
        for financial gain in spite of their knowledge that tobacco products are 
        addictive and threaten the health and life of their users;
Whereas concealing this information is, in fact, a conspiracy to murder millions 
        of Americans;
Whereas someone has made public some of these concealed documents, thus 
        potentially helping save millions of Americans in the future;
Whereas one tobacco company and its law firm are seeking to punish the 
        whistleblower through legal action; and
Whereas anyone with any common sense recognizes that the true criminals are 
        those who concealed evidence that they were plotting the murder of 
        millions of Americans and that the person who exposes this plot is 
        displaying a true sense of civic duty which should be rewarded: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled,
That the Congress shall bestow a Congressional Medal of Appreciation 
for Public Spirit to the courageous citizen who made the concealed 
documents public.
