                                  R E S O L U T I O N
    1-1        WHEREAS, It is a long-standing tradition that portraits of
    1-2  house members of each legislature be displayed in composite panels
    1-3  in the house chamber and that portraits of members elected at
    1-4  special elections be displayed in a separate panel alongside those
    1-5  of their colleagues for that legislature; and
    1-6        WHEREAS, In recent years, portraits of members elected at
    1-7  special elections have been inadvertently omitted from the
    1-8  composite panels on display in the house gallery; and
    1-9        WHEREAS, Those omitted include Representatives Erwin Barton,
   1-10  Dan Downey, Al Luna, and Larry Don Shaw of the 66th Legislature;
   1-11  Kenneth Armbrister and Hector Uribe of the 67th Legislature; Bill
   1-12  G. Carter, Robert Earley, Orlando Garcia, Neely Lewis, Nancy
   1-13  McDonald, Mike McKinney, and Russ Tidwell of the 68th Legislature;
   1-14  Bob Hunter, Eugene R. Haney, Keith Oakley, and Hugh Shine of the
   1-15  69th Legislature; Monte Stewart, Dick Swift, and Jeff Wentworth of
   1-16  the 70th Legislature; Layton Black, Charles Hartland, Allen Place,
   1-17  and Ken VanderVoort of the 71st Legislature; and Garnet Coleman,
   1-18  Bernard Erickson, Patricia Gray, Peggy Hamric, Brian McCall, Tom
   1-19  Ramsay, and Bob Turner of the 72nd Legislature; and
   1-20        WHEREAS, The cost of labor and materials to produce the above
   1-21  composites is estimated at $1,359.82, a modest sum to preserve this
   1-22  long-standing house tradition; now, therefore, be it
   1-23        RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 73rd Texas
   1-24  Legislature hereby authorize the Committee on House Administration,
    2-1  subject to the approval of the speaker, to select a suitable
    2-2  individual to produce portraits of the above-named representatives,
    2-3  to arrange the portraits of these members on composite panels, to
    2-4  print the name and the county of residence of the member under his
    2-5  or her portrait, and to frame and hang the panels in the hall of
    2-6  the house; and, be it further
    2-7        RESOLVED, That the expense of the composite panels be paid
    2-8  from the expense fund of the house.
