A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF H. R. 2441
WHEREAS, legislation has been introduced in the Congress
of the United States under H.R. 2441 by Congressman
John E. Porter; and
WHEREAS, H. R. 2441 proposes that any state having a
drinking age less than 21 shall not be entitled to receive
federal highway funds; and
WHEREAS, all indications are that having a drinking age
of 21 would indeed reduce the number of deaths and injuries
caused as a result of people who drink and drive; and
WHEREAS, the Village of Mount Prospect wholeheartedly endorses
this legislation and all proposals that would attempt to
reduce the risk of death and injuries caused by people who
drink and drive.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND BOARD OF
TRUSTEES OF THE VILLAGE OF MOUNT PROSPECT, COOK COUNTY,
