|
WHEREAS, The Texas House of Representatives is pleased to |
|
|
recognize the third class of Governor William P. Clements, Jr., |
|
|
Scholars for their commitment to public service and public policy; |
|
|
and |
|
|
WHEREAS, These young students are participating in the |
|
|
Clements Legislative Study Program, which is hosted by the Texas |
|
|
Conservative Coalition Research Institute; this exemplary program |
|
|
seeks to train, support, and sustain the next generation of leaders |
|
|
and public servants, instilling in them the values and work ethic of |
|
|
former governor William P. Clements, Jr.; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Governor Clements overcame the misfortunes that |
|
|
befell his family during the Great Depression to create the world's |
|
|
largest offshore drilling company; he won an upset victory to |
|
|
become the state's first Republican governor since Reconstruction, |
|
|
bringing his business acumen to state government and focusing on |
|
|
such issues as sound budgeting, crime prevention, and economic |
|
|
diversification; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The Clements Legislative Study Program is the only |
|
|
program of its kind to bring conservative students to Austin so that |
|
|
they may gain valuable experience in leadership and public service |
|
|
by working directly with members of the Texas Legislature; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The members of the third class of this special |
|
|
program are Philip Collins, Matthew Hester, Chelsey McGee, Patrick |
|
|
Price, Taylor Turner, and Jacqueline Walker; their time at the |
|
|
Texas Legislature will augment their college coursework in civics, |
|
|
government, and history and will provide a unique learning |
|
|
experience as they pursue their interest in public service; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend the Governor William P. Clements, Jr., |
|
|
Scholars on their dedication to public policy and on their service |
|
|
to their state and nation and extend to them best wishes for success |
|
|
in all their future endeavors; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for the students as an expression of high regard by the |
|
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
