H.R. No. 25
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, On this day, members of Leadership Southwest are
visiting the Capitol in an effort to gain further insight into the
workings of state government, and this occasion provides a fitting
opportunity to recognize these esteemed citizens; and
WHEREAS, Sponsored by the DeSoto, Cedar Hill, Duncanville,
Lancaster, and Oak Cliff chambers of commerce, Leadership Southwest
prepares its participants for community service by providing them
with personal leadership skills training and by increasing their
knowledge of such vital community issues as economic development,
the justice system and law enforcement, health and human services,
and transportation; and
WHEREAS, Approximately 40 men and women from both the private
and the public sector were chosen to participate in the program this
year; they represent a cross section of their communities and were
selected for their shared interest in community service and issues
affecting communities, their willingness to commit themselves to
the program's challenging schedule, and their desire for personal
growth; and
WHEREAS, To that end, participants attend day-long sessions,
held monthly from September through May, where they receive
instruction from prominent community and business leaders on issues
affecting communities today; and
WHEREAS, These lessons not only enable participants to become
more well informed but also to contribute to a bright and promising
future for the greater Southwest Dallas County area through their
participation on local boards and commissions following their
graduation; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby honor the members of Leadership Southwest and
extend sincere best wishes to them for a memorable and informative
visit to Austin; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Leadership Southwest as an expression of high regard
by the Texas House of Representatives.
