Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Foreign Affairs, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This resolution expresses congressional support for honoring Earth Day and addresses environmental concerns. The resolution celebrates Earth Day's history since 1970 and its role in launching the modern environmental movement, which led to creation of the Environmental Protection Agency and major legislation like the Clean Air Act. It urges the President to issue an Earth Day proclamation, calls on Americans to engage in environmental stewardship and education, and advocates for rejoining the Paris Agreement on climate change. The resolution also expresses concern about recent actions that it claims undermine environmental protections and calls for immediate action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and address environmental injustices. No funding or specific timeline is required since this is a resolution expressing support and principles rather than authorizing spending or establishing new programs.
