AI Summary

This resolution honors the life and legacy of Jimmy Carter, recognizing his remarkable journey from a naval officer and peanut farmer to the 39th President of the United States and global humanitarian. The resolution highlights Carter's significant achievements, including brokering the historic Camp David Accords between Israel and Egypt, establishing diplomatic relations with China, creating the Departments of Education and Energy, and negotiating the SALT II treaty with the Soviet Union during his presidential term. After leaving office, Carter continued his public service through The Carter Center, which has worked globally to promote human rights, resolve conflicts, fight tropical diseases, and strengthen democracies.
