Expressing support for the designation of October 5 through October 11, 
 2025, as ``National 4-H Week''.

Whereas 4-H is the largest youth development organization in the United States, 
 supporting nearly 6,000,000 young people across the United States;
Whereas 4-H helps young people become confident, independent, resilient, and 
 compassionate leaders;
Whereas 4-H is delivered by the Cooperative Extension System, a community of 
 more than 110 land-grant colleges and universities across the United 
 States that provides experiences for young people to learn through 
 hands-on projects in the important areas of health, science, 
 agriculture, and civic engagement;
Whereas the National Institute of Food and Agriculture of the Department of 
 Agriculture serves as the Federal partner of 4-H in collaboration with 
 land-grant colleges and universities, the Cooperative Extension System, 
 and National 4-H Council;
Whereas National 4-H Week showcases the incredible ways 4-H provides 
 opportunities for all young people and highlights the remarkable members 
 of 4-H in all 50 States and across the globe who work each day to make a 
 positive impact on other individuals;
Whereas the 4-H network of nearly 500,000 volunteers and 3,500 professionals 
 provides caring and supportive mentoring to all members of 4-H, helping 
 members to grow into true leaders, entrepreneurs, and visionaries; and
Whereas members of 4-H will celebrate ``National 4-H Week'' during the week of 
 October 5 through October 11, 2025: Now, therefore, be it
 Resolved, That the House of Representatives--

    (1) supports the designation of ``National 4-H Week'';

 development program of the Nation's Cooperative Extension
