AMERICAN SHORE AND BEACH PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION
Mr. WHITEHOUSE (for himself and Mr. Cassidy) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary:
S. Res. 659
Whereas the year 2026 marks the centennial of the American
Shore and Beach Preservation Association (in this preamble
referred to as the “Association”), which has for a century
advanced a science-guided commitment to coastal restoration
and protection;
Whereas, in 1926, the Association's visionary leaders
sought to establish a forum “where the novice and he who has
long wrestled with these problems can seek more light; where
the man of science and the statesman can exchange ideas and
collaborate together; where idealist and lover of Nature and
the economist can arrive at a mutual understanding; where
landscape artist and philanthropist can find an outlet for
their activities,” thereby fostering collaboration and
innovation for coastal stewardship;
Whereas the critical issues of shore and beach
preservation, which promote community protection, a strong
economy, ecological health, and recreation, remain as vital
in 2026 as they were at the time of the Association's
founding;
Whereas United States coastal communities and natural
resources have benefitted from the Association's work in
translating coastal science and engineering, guiding policy,
and advocating for resilient shores and beaches over the past
century; and
Whereas, in 2026, the Association is celebrating its 100th
anniversary: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Senate—
(1) recognizes and celebrates the 100th anniversary of the
American Shore and Beach Preservation Association (in this
resolution referred to as the “Association”);
(2) commemorates the centennial of the Association,
honoring a century of shore and beach preservation and
progress; and
(3) congratulates the leaders and members of the
Association on a century of dedication to the shores and
beaches of the United States and recognizes the enduring
importance of its mission.
