This bill is a waste of time and resources. Why should we care about some international day for mine awareness when there are more pressing issues at home? I don't see how this is going to benefit me or anyone in the US. Just another example of politicians focusing on feel-good initiatives instead of tackling real problems. #NotImpressed
