Expressing full support for United States troops participating in
the War on Terror.
Whereas, The United States is at war against terrorists who
would take our lives and property in the name of their extremist
beliefs; and
Whereas, American troops are currently in harm's way defending
American freedom in locations across the globe, including Iraq and
Afghanistan; and
Whereas, Many of those servicemen and women are West Virginian
citizens or friends or relatives of West Virginian citizens; and
Whereas, Leaders in Washington, D. C., should do all that is
in their power to fund and support American soldiers, sailors,
airmen and Marines, with special emphasis placed on providing
adequate body armor for all military personnel in harm's way;
therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate:
That the Senate hereby expresses its full support for United States troops participating in the War on Terror; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk is hereby directed to forward
a copy of this resolution to the President of the United States,
