WHEREAS, Jena Segura of Weslaco, whose cousins are deploying
to Iraq, is helping to lift the spirits of our nation's servicemen
and servicewomen in Iraq and Afghanistan through her involvement in
"Project for the Troops"; and
WHEREAS, Organized by Ms. Segura and Weslaco High School
classmate Jannice Vela, "Project for the Troops" is a Valley-wide
effort that began as a pen-pal program, but has evolved into a more
extensive endeavor to send care packages to soldiers overseas; and
WHEREAS, Ms. Segura is bringing joy and a valuable reminder
of home to those serving our nation by providing them with everyday
comforts that we take for granted, and she truly deserves
recognition for her initiative and selflessness in behalf of
others; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas
Legislature hereby commend Jena Segura for establishing "Project
for the Troops" to provide comfort and support for our country's
armed forces and extend to her best wishes for success in this
noteworthy enterprise; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Ms. Segura as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
