A resolution to honor the life and death of Duncan McLauchlin ("Lauch") Faircloth, former Senator for the State of North Carolina.
SRES 393 is a ceremonial resolution passed by the U.S. Senate to honor the late Duncan McLauchlin "Lauch" Faircloth, a former North Carolina U.S. Senator (1993-1999) and longtime public servant. The resolution expresses the Senate's "profound sorrow" over his death, requests the Secretary of the Senate notify the House of Representatives and deliver a copy to his family, and directs the Senate to adjourn in his memory. It commemorates Faircloth's career, including his service as North Carolina's Secretary of Commerce, his advocacy for free enterprise, and his role in preventing Washington D.C. bankruptcy. As a purely commemorative measure with no policy changes, it does not affect any laws or constituents.
