           SUMMARY  :  Proclaims the week of September 17 through September  
          22, 2013, as Constitution Week and urges the California citizens  
          to reaffirm the ideals of the framers of the Constitution of  
          1787 by protecting the freedoms guaranteed to us through this  
          guardian of our liberties.  Specifically,  this resolution  makes  
          the following legislative findings:

          1)The Constitution of the United States of America, the guardian  
            of our liberties, embodies the principles of limited  
            government in a republic dedicated to the rule of law.  
           
          2)September 17, 2013, will mark the 226th anniversary of the  
            framing of the Constitution of the United States of America by  
            the Constitutional Convention; and, Public Law 915 guarantees  
            the issuing of a proclamation each year by the President of  
            the United States of America by designating September 17  
            through 22 as Constitution Week.  
                 
           3)Constitution Week urges all Californians to reaffirm the  
            ideals of the framers of the Constitution of 1787 by  
            protecting the freedoms guaranteed to us through this guardian  
            of our liberties; and, by recognizing this magnificent  
            document and its memorable anniversary through patriotic  
            celebrations which will commemorate the occasion.
