Subject:	Eat for Peace Week

In the near future, I will re-introduce a resolution recognizing April 11-17, 2016 as “Eat for Peace Week” in Pennsylvania. As many of you may remember from my initial introduction of this resolution in 2011 and re-introduction the past four years, the “Eat for Peace” concept evolved from the unique experiences of Mr. Anthony Lucidonio, Jr., a resident of the Philadelphia area and an owner of the famous Tony Luke’s restaurants. It was during Mr. Lucidonio’s time at his restaurant in the country of Bahrain that he observed firsthand the phenomenon of healthy and positive relationships being forged between the multinational patrons who dined at his restaurant. Once again, following the lead of Mr. Lucidonio’s exportation of this much needed concept to our Commonwealth, it is paramount that we as legislators continue in the fashion of promoting cooperation, understanding, and tolerance between those of differing ethnicities, cultures, and religions. As such, it is with great honor that I recognize the week of April 11 to April 17, 2016, as “Eat for Peace Week” in Pennsylvania. By continuing to recognize and embrace such a concept, we as human beings can say with the deepest of convictions that we have done our due diligence in making Pennsylvania, if not the world, a much better place to live. Please join me in sponsoring this legislation.
