1-1 WHEREAS, Sharon Carter has distinguished herself as a
1-2 dedicated public servant and valued employee of the Texas House of
1-3 Representatives, and it is indeed fitting at this time to recognize
1-4 her for her many contributions to the success of this body; and
1-5 WHEREAS, This legislative session marks Ms. Carter's first as
1-6 chief clerk of the house, and her astute and diligent stewardship

1-9 chamber during the course of the session; and
1-10 WHEREAS, In addition to her responsibilities as chief clerk,
1-11 Ms. Carter has also served as assistant house parliamentarian since

1-16 integral role in organizing this session's successful Speaker's Day
1-17 celebration; and
1-18 WHEREAS, A graduate of The University of Texas at Austin,
1-19 Ms. Carter was first employed by the legislature as a
1-20 sergeant-at-arms, but her keen intelligence and ability were
1-21 quickly noted, and since that time she has enjoyed similar success
1-22 in a number of positions with the legislature; and
1-23 WHEREAS, The members of the house of representatives are well
1-24 aware of both the challenging work environment of the legislative
2-1 session and the crucial importance of accuracy and efficiency in
2-2 the preparation of our legislation, and Ms. Carter's exemplary
2-3 efforts in our behalf have earned her our heartfelt admiration and
2-4 gratitude; now, therefore, be it
2-5 RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 75th Texas
2-6 Legislature hereby honor Sharon Carter for her outstanding service
2-7 as chief clerk of the house of representatives and assistant house
2-8 parliamentarian and extend to her sincere best wishes for continued
