[Congressional Bills 119th Congress] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office] [H. Res. 1134 Introduced in House (IH)] <DOC> 119th CONGRESS 2d Session H. RES. 1134 Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the American Shore and Beach Preservation Association. _______________________________________________________________________ IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES March 24, 2026 Mr. Rouzer (for himself, Mr. Rutherford, Mr. Pallone, and Mr. Min) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Natural Resources _______________________________________________________________________ RESOLUTION Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the American Shore and Beach Preservation Association. Whereas the year 2026 marks the centennial of the American Shore and Beach Preservation Association (ASBPA), which has, for a century, advanced a science-guided commitment to coastal restoration and protection; Whereas, in 1926, in Asbury Park, New Jersey, the ASBPA's visionary leaders sought to establish a forum ``where the novice and he who has long wrestled with these problems can seek more light; where the man of science and the statesman can exchange ideas and collaborate together; where idealist and lover of nature and the economist can arrive at a mutual understanding; where landscape artist and philanthropist can find an outlet for their activities,'' thereby fostering collaboration and innovation for coastal stewardship; Whereas the critical issues of shore and beach preservation--promoting community protection, a strong economy, ecological health, and recreation--remain as vital in 2026 as they were at the ASBPA's founding; Whereas United States coastal communities and natural resources have benefitted from the ASBPA's work in translating coastal science and engineering, guiding policy, and advocating for resilient shores and beaches over the past century; and Whereas, in 2026, the ASBPA is celebrating its 100th anniversary: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives-- (1) recognizes and celebrates the 100th anniversary of the ASBPA; (2) commemorates the centennial of the ASBPA, honoring a century of shore and beach preservation and progress; and (3) congratulates the leaders and members of the ASBPA on a century of dedication to our Nation's shores and beaches and recognizes the enduring importance of its mission. <all>
