Committee approves resolution naming Mother's Day–Father's Day "Traditional Family Values Month"
Summary
The committee voted to send HCR 18 to the floor with a do-pass recommendation; the resolution recognizes the period from Mother's Day through Father's Day as Traditional Family Values Month to raise awareness of challenges facing traditional families.
Senator Toews presented HCR 18 to recognize findings of the Legislature and to designate Mother's Day through Father's Day as Traditional Family Values Month. Senator Den Hartog moved to send the resolution to the floor with a do-pass recommendation; Senator Adams seconded and the motion carried by voice vote.
