|
which is also known as The University of Texas at San Antonio |
|
Legislative Scholars Program, is a collaborative effort between |
|

|
the State Capitol during legislative sessions; and |

|
campaign of U.S. Representative Lloyd Doggett; he currently serves |
|
on the board of directors for M.O.V.E. San Antonio, a nonprofit |
|
organization he helped to found in 2013 that focuses on increasing |
|

|
WHEREAS, While gaining important experience in the field of |
|
public service as a member of Representative McClendon's staff, |
|

|
firsthand and learned more about the legislative process and the |
|
