By Flores                                             H.R. No. 1108
         76R16792(14) WMS-D                           
                                 R E S O L U T I O N
 1-1           WHEREAS, Johnny Cuellar has recently won election as mayor of
 1-2     the City of Weslaco, and his desire to serve his fellow citizens as
 1-3     a public official makes him worthy of special legislative
 1-4     recognition; and
 1-5           WHEREAS, A democratic form of government depends on the
 1-6     informed participation of its people, and foremost among the
 1-7     system's participants are those dedicated men and women who are
 1-8     willing to make the sacrifices necessary to take on the role of
 1-9     public servant; and
1-10           WHEREAS, The demands of public office are great, and the
1-11     rewards are not always immediately apparent; public servants must
1-12     continually balance the needs of their constituents with the best
1-13     use of available resources, and few issues are easily resolved; and
1-14           WHEREAS, In taking on this difficult challenge, Johnny
1-15     Cuellar has joined the proud tradition of citizen leadership that
1-16     has been our nation's trademark for more than two centuries, and he
1-17     can take justifiable pride in the role he has played in this noble
1-18     legacy; now, therefore, be it
1-19           RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 76th Texas
1-20     Legislature hereby congratulate Johnny Cuellar on his recent
1-21     election as mayor of the City of Weslaco and extend to him warmest
1-22     best wishes for future success; and, be it further
1-23           RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
1-24     prepared for Johnny Cuellar as an expression of high regard by the
 2-1     Texas House of Representatives.
