Bill Summary

Relative to Constitution Week.

AI Summary

This Concurrent Resolution, titled "Constitution Week," is a formal statement by the California State Legislature recognizing the importance of the United States Constitution. It acknowledges that September 17, 2013, marked the 226th anniversary of the Constitution's framing by the Constitutional Convention, the body that drafted the foundational document of the U.S. government. The resolution also references Public Law 915, which mandates the President to annually designate September 17 through 22 as Constitution Week. In light of these facts, the California Legislature officially proclaims the week of September 17 through 22, 2013, as Constitution Week, encouraging all Californians to honor the Constitution's principles of limited government and the rule of law, and to actively protect the freedoms it guarantees, emphasizing that once lost, rights are difficult to regain. The resolution also directs the Chief Clerk of the Assembly to distribute copies to the author for further dissemination.
