H.R. No. 558

	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Members of Leadership Mission are visiting the State
	Capitol on February 23, 2015, to gain greater insight into the
	workings of state government; and
	WHEREAS, This exceptional program provides opportunities for
	participants to increase their knowledge of vital public issues and
	to visit with the leaders who are making decisions that affect their
	community; and
	WHEREAS, Meeting regularly over the course of a nine-month
	period, participants further develop their skills and enhance their
	knowledge of important public issues as they study topics ranging
	from the history of Mission to city and county government, the
	police and fire departments, health care, education, the media,
	federal agencies, and economic development; in addition,
	participants take a maquila tour; and
	WHEREAS, Classes inspire a spirit of activism and provide a
	diverse membership with personal leadership training, networking
	opportunities, and instruction from influential figures from both
	the public and private sectors; each annual Leadership group also
	completes a project of benefit to the community; in recent years,
	these projects have included donations to the Mission Historical
	Museum, the Mission Speer Memorial Library, the Mission Boys and
	Girls Club, and The University of Texas--Pan American; and
	WHEREAS, Leadership Mission awards scholarships each session
	to members who are in college and who successfully complete the LM
	program; to raise funds for these scholarships, class projects, and
	the annual legislative trip, members participate in such worthwhile
	events as the Texas Citrus Fiesta, the City Tree Lighting Ceremony,
	and a benefit raffle; they also sponsor the popular Leadership
	Mission Skeet Shoot and Golf Classic; and
	WHEREAS, Through fostering a more informed and involved
	citizenry and developing new leaders, Leadership Mission is helping
	create a brighter and more promising future for the Lone Star State;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
	Legislature hereby honor these members of Leadership Mission,
	welcome them to the State Capitol, and extend to all program
	participants sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it
	further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for the group as an expression of high regard by the Texas
	House of Representatives.
