RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of the week of March 23, 2025,
through March 29, 2025, as ``National Cleaning Week''.
Whereas cleaning and disinfection are an investment in protecting human health
and safety;
Whereas the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stresses the importance
of routine cleaning and disinfecting to protect public health;
Whereas ISSA, the Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association, found that routine
cleaning and disinfection reduce the number of surfaces contaminated by
viruses by 62 percent and thereby significantly reduce the rate of
transmission of infectious diseases;
Whereas manufacturers and distributors produce and deliver critical cleaning and
hygiene products; and
Whereas essential frontline cleaning professionals work tirelessly to keep our
schools, hospitals, workplaces, and other spaces healthy and safe for us
all: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) recognizes the commitment and essential services
provided by the cleaning industry in maintaining clean and
sanitary conditions; and
(2) supports the designation of ``National Cleaning Week''
to continue to promote safe and clean environments at work, in
schools, and at home.
