Designating December 13, 2004, as National Day of
the Horse and encouraging the people of the United

IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


RESOLUTION
Designating December 13, 2004, as National Day of
the Horse and encouraging the people of the United
States to be mindful of the contribution of horses
to the economy, history, and character of the United
States. 

Whereas the horse is a living link to the history of
the United States; 

Whereas without horses, the economy, history, and
character of the United States would be profoundly
different; 

Whereas horses continue to permeate the society of
the United States, as witnessed on movie screens, on
open land, and in our own backyards; 

Whereas horses are a vital part of the collective
experience of the United States and deserve
protection and compassion; 

Whereas because of increasing pressure from modern
society, wild and domestic horses rely on humans for
adequate food, water, and shelter; and 

Whereas the Congressional Horse Caucus estimates
that the horse industry contributes much more than
$100,000,000,000 each year to the economy of the
United States: Now, therefore, be it 


  Resolved, That the Senate--

    (1) designates December 13, 2004, as `National
Day of the Horse', in recognition of the importance
of horses to the security, economy, recreation, and
heritage of the United States;

    (2) encourages all people of the United States
to be mindful of the contribution of horses to the
economy, history, and character of the United
States; and

    (3) requests that the President issue a
proclamation calling on the people of the United
States and interested organizations to observe the
day with appropriate programs and activities.
