This resolution highlights significant challenges, noting that nearly 59 million adults in the United States lack basic literacy, numeracy, and digital skills, while millions more lack a high school credential or adequate English-language proficiency. It emphasizes that the literacy of the population is crucial for the nation's economic well-being, national security, and individual opportunity. Furthermore, it asserts that improved literacy skills are essential for economic recovery, reducing unemployment, and enabling individuals to fully benefit from societal opportunities. To address these issues, the House of Representatives supports designating 'National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week' to raise public awareness about these critical areas. It encourages individuals and organizations across the United States to support programs that assist adults in need of education, workforce skills, and family literacy. The resolution also recognizes the profound importance of these programs and calls upon public, private, and nonprofit entities to increase access to them, aiming to foster a fully literate society.
