| 110-hconres-350 | 110 | hconres | 350 | Expressing the sense of the Congress that the United States, through the International Whaling Commission, should use all appropriate measures to end commercial whaling in all of its forms, including scientific and other special permit whaling, coastal whaling, and community-based whaling, and seek to strengthen the conservation and management measures to facilitate the conservation of whale species, and for other purposes. | International Affairs | 2008-05-14 | 2008-06-20 | Received in the Senate and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. | House | Rep. Rahall, Nick J., II [D-WV-3] | WV | D | R000011 | 36 | (This measure has not been amended since it was introduced. The summary of that version is repeated here.) Declares that the United States, through the International Whaling Commission, should: (1) use all appropriate measures to end commercial whaling, including scientific, special permit, coastal, and community-based whaling; (2) oppose any initiative that would result in any new, Commission-sanctioned coastal or community-based whaling, even if it is portrayed as noncommercial, including commercial whaling by coastal communities that does not qualify as aboriginal subsistence whaling; and (3) seek to strengthen conservation and management measures. | 2022-02-03T05:12:15Z |
