SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 525
       WHEREAS, Throughout its history the State of Texas has
maintained a commitment to the principle of protecting private
property, and since 1920, members of the Texas Association of
REALTORS have supported this vital principle; and
       WHEREAS, Each day, REALTORS provide valuable professional
services that enable their fellow Texans to buy, sell, lease,
develop, and manage real estate in a knowledgeable and confident
manner; and
       WHEREAS, Over the years, Texas REALTORS have worked
diligently within the regulatory process to promote and raise
their business practices, and the term "REALTOR" has come to
stand for competence, fairness, and integrity; and
       WHEREAS, The 90,000 members of the Texas Association of
REALTORS have consistently supported responsible government
as well as the entrepreneurial spirit that is the backbone
of our state's economy, and they are indeed worthy of special
recognition at this time; now, therefore, be it
       RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas,
80th Legislature, hereby recognize March 27, 2007, as REALTOR
Appreciation Day at the State Capitol and extend a warm welcome
to members of the Texas Association of REALTORS on the occasion
of their visit to the State Capitol; and, be it further
       RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
prepared for the Texas Association of REALTORS as an expression
of high regard from the Texas Senate.
