        offices with objective research which is critical to their missions;
Whereas the agricultural research conducted by the Agricultural Research Service 
        has an enormous impact on the economic viability of agriculture in the 
        United States and around the world;
Whereas people around the world, especially rural Americans, enjoy a higher 
        quality of life due in part to the work of the Agricultural Research 
        Service to expand scientific knowledge;
Whereas the Agricultural Research Service has achieved major scientific 
        breakthroughs that have benefited farmers, ranchers, agribusiness, and 
        consumers;
Whereas the Agricultural Research Service has made scientific discoveries and 
        technological developments addressing agricultural problems of broad 
        scope and high national priority, ensuring safe and high quality food 
        and other agricultural products that meet nutritional needs, and 
        maintaining a quality environment and natural resource base; and
Whereas the Agricultural Research Service continues to play a vital role in 
        maintaining the global competitiveness and leadership of the United 
        States in the next millennium: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United 
States of America in Congress assembled, That Congress--

        Department of Agriculture for its 50 years of outstanding
