H.R. No. 801
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The "Take Our Daughters to Work Day" program has
been embraced by families across the nation, and the Travis County
Women Lawyers' Association has consistently supported the program's
goal of opening up girls' minds to the many possibilities life holds
for them; and
WHEREAS, Honored by the State Bar of Texas with the 2002 Star
of Achievement and Partnership Program awards, this noteworthy
local initiative annually provides 20 fifth-grade girls from Norman
Elementary School with an educational field trip to a site of
interest; and
WHEREAS, This year's destination is the Texas State Capitol,
and the students' visit to the seat of state government will not
only allow them to tour this historic and beautiful building but
also enable them to view the legislature functioning at its dynamic
best; and
WHEREAS, Providing these young Texans with an opportunity to
better understand the legislative process, and to pass on their
observations and reflections to their families and friends, will no
doubt result in a positive experience for all concerned; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 78th Texas
Legislature hereby commend the members of the Travis County Women
Lawyers' Association for their participation in the "Take Our
Daughters to Work Day" program and extend to them and to the
visiting students from Norman Elementary School sincere best wishes
for an enjoyable day at the State Capitol; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the Travis County Women Lawyers' Association as an
expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
