 RESOLUTION

 Memorializing the unborn by lowering the United States flag to half-
 staff on the 22d day of January each year.

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 62,000,000 unborn children have 
 perished: Now, therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

    (1) supports the recognition of the Day of Tears in the 
 United States;

    (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 affirm the 
 sanctity of life and ensure robust reporting data on abortions 
 is conducted.
