diversification; and |

furthering their understanding of civics, government, and history, |

|
|
Legislature will serve them well in the years ahead; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
|
|

|
|
success in all their future endeavors; and, be it further |
