S. RES. 577
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
September 20, 2006
Mr. Baucus (for himself, Mr. Burns, and Mr. Byrd) submitted the following resolution; which was considered and agreed to
RESOLUTION
Designating September 24, 2006, as
National Good Neighbor Day
.
Whereas our society has developed highly effective means of speedy communication around the world, but has failed to ensure meaningful communication among people living across the globe, or even across the street, from one another;
Whereas the endurance of human values and consideration for others are critical to the survival of civilization; and
Whereas being good neighbors to those around us is the first step toward human understanding: Now, therefore, be it
That the Senate—
designates
September 24, 2006, as National Good Neighbor Day
; and
calls on the people of the United States and interested groups and organizations to observe National Good Neighbor Day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
