H.R. No. 576
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Thousands of U.S. troops have been mobilized for
action against the current Iraqi regime; and
WHEREAS, This country is united in praying for the safety of
these brave men and women and for a swift end to the conflict at
hand; the nation prays, too, that the sacrifice and heroism of these
troops will make possible the emergence of a new democratic society
in Iraq, one that recognizes and protects the dignity of all its
people and that draws its strength from their untrammeled talents;
and
WHEREAS, Americans owe an immeasurable debt to the members of
our armed forces, whose efforts have secured this country's own
treasured liberties for more than 200 years, and whose devotion to
duty, honor, and the cause of freedom is deserving of their fellow
citizens' deepest pride and gratitude; and
WHEREAS, At this time of grave crisis, we recognize the
American troops deployed to Iraq and the Persian Gulf for the
tremendous burdens they have assumed in behalf of their country,
and we keep them in our thoughts and hearts as they face the arduous
days ahead; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby express its support for the American troops now
engaged in the Iraqi campaign and extend to them its profound hopes
for a successful conclusion to their mission and their safe return.
