IV 116th CONGRESS 1st Session H. RES. 50 IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES January 16, 2019 Mr. Hice of Georgia (for himself and Mr. Mooney of West Virginia ) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Oversight and Reform 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 ruled that abortion was a right secured by the Constitution; and Whereas since that fateful day, over 60 million unborn children have perished: Now, therefore, be it

That the House of Representatives supports the recognition of the Day of Tears in the United States of America and that the citizens therein be encouraged to lower their flags to half-staff to mourn and honor the innocents who have lost their lives to abortion.
