they seek to build wealth and plan for a strong financial future; 
and
	WHEREAS, Learning how to carefully manage and invest one's 
money is a critical step toward ensuring economic security; to 
assist Americans in developing an effective financial strategy, 
securities regulators, educators, consumer organizations, and 
financial industry associations have created the annual Facts on 
Saving and Investing Campaign; and
	WHEREAS, During the month of April 2003, public and private 
participants in this important campaign intend to distribute 
information designed to help Texans make informed financial 
decisions and to avoid becoming victims of financial fraud; and
	WHEREAS, In order to reach younger Texans, some of these 
educational efforts involve visits to schools to meet with teachers 
and students, as well as the development and distribution of a 
curriculum to supplement existing high school course work; and
	WHEREAS, The prosperity of the Lone Star State depends 
largely on individuals devoting the fruits of their hard work 
toward sound financial goals and avoiding fraudulent schemes and 
other pitfalls that threaten their financial well-being; now, 
therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas 
Legislature hereby recognize all the participants in the 2003 Facts 
on Saving and Investing Campaign for their efforts to help Texans 
plan for a prosperous future and encourage Texans of all ages and 
income levels to increase their financial savvy and save and invest 
wisely.
