        Designating September 17, 2003, as ``Constitution Day''.

Whereas the Constitution of the United States of America was signed on September 
        17, 1787, by 39 delegates from 12 States;
Whereas the Constitution was subsequently ratified by each of the original 13 
        States;
Whereas the Constitution was drafted in order to form a more perfect Union, 
        establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common 
        defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of 
        liberty for the citizens of the United States;
Whereas the Constitution has provided the means and structure for this Nation 
        and its citizens to achieve a level of prosperity, liberty, security, 
        and justice that is unparalleled among nations;
Whereas the Constitution's contributions to the welfare of the human race reach 
        far beyond the borders of the United States;
Whereas the Senate continues to strive to preserve and strengthen the values and 
        rights bestowed by the Constitution upon the United States of America 
        and its citizens; and
Whereas the preservation of such values and rights in the hearts and minds of 
        American citizens would be advanced by official recognition of the 
        signing of the Constitution: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate:
            (1) designates September 17, 2003, as ``Constitution Day''; 
        and
            (2) calls upon the people of the United States to observe 
        the day with appropriate ceremonies and respect.
