Be it resolved
by the House of Representatives of the State of Ohio:

WHEREAS,
Special Olympics is a global sports movement that unleashes the human
spirit every day around the world through the transformative power
and joy of sport; and

WHEREAS, The Special
Olympics U.S.A. Games celebrate athletes with intellectual
disabilities by focusing on inclusivity, empowerment, and community
through diverse sports competitions and supportive programs; and

WHEREAS, The mission of
Special Olympics is to provide year-round sports training and
athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children
and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing
opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage,
experience joy, and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills, and
friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes, and
the community; and

WHEREAS, The City of
Cleveland is a top contender to host the 2030 games; and

WHEREAS, The Special
Olympics U.S.A. Site Selection Committee has toured the city and the
venues that would be involved with hosting the games in 2030; and

WHEREAS, The final
decision to be announced this spring is down to Cleveland or
Nashville; and

WHEREAS, The Greater
Cleveland Sports Commission has already recruited over 10,000
volunteers five years out; and

WHEREAS, The money
raised already from corporate leaders, over $10 million, is
unprecedented, and shows an extreme commitment from the community;
now therefore be it

RESOLVED, That we, the
members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General Assembly
of the State of Ohio, support the City of Cleveland in its offer to
host the 2030 Special Olympics U.S.A. Games; and be it further
