                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
 Recognizing the important relationship between the United States and 
                                Mexico.

Whereas the United States and Mexico share a special bilateral friendship 
        matched by few other countries in the world;
Whereas the United States and Mexico are partners joined by geography as well as 
        by a series of government-to-government and private relationships which 
        are of critical importance to both countries;
Whereas the United States and Mexico share concern on a wide range of issues, 
        including trade and immigration, environmental quality, economic 
        development, and regional security and stability; and
Whereas the special relationship between the United States and Mexico is 
        critically important in its own right as well as serving as a linchpin 
        in the relationship between the United States and every nation in 
        Central and South America: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of Congress that it is in keeping with the just 
interests of the United States that the special nature of the 
relationship between the United States and Mexico be recognized and 
further cultivated to the mutual benefit of both countries.
                                 &lt;all&gt;
