MAILY  MIRAMONTES,  Intern,  Representative Cathy  Munoz,  Alaska                                                               
State Legislature,  presented HB 180 on  behalf of Representative                                                               
Munoz, prime  sponsor.   She said  the proposed  joint resolution                                                               
would  make the  second Sunday  of  June "Children's  Day."   The                                                               
reason is to  let Alaskan children know that  Alaskans think they                                                               
are important,  care for  them, and value  them.   She emphasized                                                               
the  importance  of  society  taking  every  opportunity  to  let                                                               
children know  that they are the  future of the country  and that                                                               
"we depend on them."                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                
MS. MIRAMONTES related that she grew  up in Mexico where a day in                                                               
April is set  aside to celebrate children.  She  said the day was                                                               
filled  with fun  activities, and  family  and friends  gathered.                                                               
She said  the day was significant  to her; as a  child she always                                                               
looked forward  to it.   She said  some of her  fondest childhood                                                               
memories were  formed on that day,  and she opined that  it would                                                               
be wonderful for children in  Alaska to have those same, positive                                                               
memories.                                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                                
MS.  MIRAMONTES stated  that the  positive impact  of recognizing                                                               
children on  a special  day would be  long-lasting.   She stated,                                                               
"Constructive  and  positive  memories  could  contribute  for  a                                                               
better outcome  to children's  lives, and  we should  support any                                                               
event that could  contribute to this goal."   She said Children's                                                               
Day  would give  an opportunity  to  parents and  members of  the                                                               
community   to  work   on  events   that   would  reinforce   the                                                               
relationship  to   children.    She  said   the  country  already                                                               
celebrates  Mother's Day  in May  and Father's  Day in  June, and                                                               
recently added  an Elder's Day,  and adding Children's  Day would                                                               
complement  those  celebrations.    She asked  the  committee  to                                                               
support HB 180.                                                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                
8:20:19 AM                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                
CHAIR LYNN, after ascertaining no  one further wished to testify,

8:20:29 AM
