Expressing support for the designation of the second Saturday of January as "National Desert Day".

This joint resolution (HJRES 138) is a symbolic congressional expression of support for designating the second Saturday of January as "National Desert Day." It requests the President issue a proclamation encouraging public observance through programs and activities focused on desert conservation. The resolution highlights the ecological importance of U.S. deserts (Mojave, Sonoran, Chihuahuan, and Great Basin), their biodiversity, and the need for sustainable practices. It does not create new laws or affect specific groups; it solely promotes awareness of desert ecosystems.
