	WHEREAS, Members of Leadership Mesquite are visiting the
	State Capitol on April 11 and 12, 2017, and the occasion provides a
	fitting opportunity to recognize this notable group; and
	WHEREAS, Leadership Mesquite strives to educate civic-minded

	perspectives; and
	WHEREAS, Working in cooperation with such entities as the
	Mesquite Economic Development Board, Dallas County Commissioners
	Court, Mesquite Independent School District, and Eastfield
	College, Leadership Mesquite sponsors different programs every
	month to help members gain a better understanding of the community;
	moreover, each class chooses a special project to support, and this
	year, the group is sponsoring ReadPlayTalk, a research-based,
	community-supported initiative to champion early childhood
	literacy among Mesquite ISD students; and
	WHEREAS, Leadership Mesquite is endeavoring to build a more
	informed and involved citizenry by promoting a spirit of
	volunteerism and community pride, and the program is helping to
	build an even brighter and more prosperous future for the Lone Star
	State; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize April 11 and 12, 2017, as Leadership
