                               RESOLUTION


 
Relative to the disappearance of John F. Kennedy, Jr., Carolyn Bessette 
                     Kennedy, and Lauren Bessette.

Whereas it is with profound sorrow and regret that the Senate has learned that 
        John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr., his wife Carolyn Bessette Kennedy and her 
        sister Lauren Bessette have been missing since the early morning hours 
        of Saturday, July 17, 1999;
Whereas John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Jr., is the son of the late John Fitzgerald 
        Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States of America and Senator 
        from Massachusetts, and nephew of the late Robert Francis Kennedy of New 
        York, and of Senator Edward Moore Kennedy of Massachusetts, and a 
        beloved member of the Kennedy family, which has given countless years of 
        service to this country; and
Whereas the heart of the Nation goes out to the Kennedy and Bessette families as 
        search efforts continue in the waters off Martha's Vineyard: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate, when it adjourns on Monday, July 19, 
1999, do so as a further mark of respect for the grieving families, and 
directs the Secretary to transmit a copy of this resolution to the 
Kennedy and Bessette families.
                                 <all>
