RESOLUTION
Expressing support for the designation of April 11, 2019, as Remanufacturing Day.
Whereas remanufacturing is a comprehensive and rigorous industrial process by which a previously sold, leased, used, worn, or nonfunctional product or part is returned to a same-as-when-new or better condition, from both a quality and performance perspective, through a controlled, reproducible, and sustainable process;
Whereas remanufacturing has been recognized by leading universities, research institutions, and manufacturers around the world as the highest form of recycling, by reducing greenhouse gas production, saving energy, and reclaiming end-of-life products;
Whereas by encouraging businesses, State agencies, nonprofit organizations, schools, and individuals to celebrate Remanufacturing Day, 2019, we can further promote remanufacturing as environmentally friendly and economically efficient; and
Whereas to focus the Nation’s attention on the benefits of remanufacturing, businesses, educational institutions, and nonprofit organizations have joined together to celebrate Remanufacturing Day and are encouraging colleagues, friends, families, and communities to learn more about the benefits of remanufactured products: Now, therefore, be it
That the House of Representatives supports the designation of Remanufacturing Day.
