RESOLUTION

Expressing support for designation of a ‘‘Frank Sinatra Day’’ on May 13, 2008, in honor of the dedication of the Frank Sinatra commemorative stamp.

Whereas over 150 years ago, United States commemorative stamps began honoring the people, places, and events that have shaped our country’s history;

Whereas more than 22,000,000 Americans, including children, collect and learn about our country through stamps, making it one of the most popular hobbies in the Nation and the world;

Whereas it is important that we pause to reflect on our Nation’s history and culture;

Whereas stamps honor statesmen and soldiers as they fought for freedom and democracy, recognize our scientific and technological achievements, pay tribute to our artistic and cultural legacy, and celebrate the strength of our diversity;

Whereas Frank Sinatra, a monumental figure in American popular culture, has been selected as part of the 2008 commemorative stamp program;

Whereas, on May 14, 1997, the President signed into law legislation to award a Congressional Gold Medal to Frank Sinatra in recognition of his accomplishments as an entertainer and humanitarian; and

Whereas a dedicating ceremony of the Frank Sinatra commemorative stamp will be held in New York, and in Las Vegas, Nevada, on May 13, 2008: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the United States House of Representatives expresses support for designation of a ‘‘Frank Sinatra Day’’ in honor of the dedication of the Frank Sinatra commemorative stamp.
