Purpose and Summary

Ordered to be Reported (Amended) by Unanimous Consent.
Bill 119 hr 1098, also known as the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program Act of 1994, is a piece of legislation that aims to reauthorize the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program. This program was originally established in 1994 with the goal of educating and engaging young people in wildlife conservation and habitat preservation through art.

The bill seeks to continue funding for the program, which allows students in grades K-12 to participate in an annual art contest where they can submit their original designs for a Junior Duck Stamp. The winning design is then used to create a stamp that is sold to raise funds for conservation efforts.

In addition to reauthorizing the program, the bill also includes provisions to ensure that the program continues to be administered effectively and efficiently. This includes requirements for annual reports on the program's activities and outcomes, as well as guidelines for the selection of judges for the art contest. Overall, Bill 119 hr 1098 aims to support and promote the Junior Duck Stamp Conservation and Design Program, which has proven to be a successful way to engage young people in conservation efforts and raise awareness about the importance of protecting wildlife and their habitats.
