    1-1        WHEREAS, One of the functions of the Texas Parks and Wildlife
    1-2  Department is to provide outdoor recreational opportunities for all
    1-3  Texans through conscientious management and protection of wildlife
    1-4  and wildlife habitat, and those dedicated individuals who serve as

    1-6  to fulfill that function; and
    1-7        WHEREAS, Since its inception in 1895 as the Fish and Oyster
    1-8  Commission, the agency's scope has broadened to encompass the

   1-10  wonders for which Texas is renowned; and
   1-11        WHEREAS, The unceasing efforts of the Texas Parks and
   1-12  Wildlife Department to address these vital issues, and in
   1-13  particular the efforts of the frontline personnel whose dedication
   1-14  to the agency's goals is essential to the fulfillment of its
   1-15  purpose, indeed merit the recognition and support of the Texas
   1-16  House of Representatives; now, therefore, be it
