|
|
WHEREAS, Members of the Dallas County Council of Republican |
|
Women are gathering at the State Capitol on April 6, 2017, as part |
|
of the Texas Federation of Republican Women's Legislative Day, |
|
and this provides a fitting opportunity to recognize the group |
|
for the vital role it plays in civic affairs; and |
|
WHEREAS, Established in 1955, the DCCRW serves as the |
|
umbrella organization for Republican women's clubs in the area, |
|
providing resources and support for their mission of electing |
|
Republican candidates to office at all levels of government; and |
|
WHEREAS, The DCCRW also works to promote the principles and |
|
polices of the Republican Party and participates in community |
|
outreach efforts to encourage involvement in the political |
|
process; in addition, the council carries out a number of |
|
initiatives to assist those serving in the armed forces, |
|
including distributing knitted helmet caps to deploying troops, |
|
waving flags to welcome those returning home, and providing |
|
refreshments at military-related events; in carrying out its |
|
myriad projects, the council is guided by its current president, |
|
Annette Ratliff; and |
|
WHEREAS, The Dallas County Council of Republican Women is |
|
making a lasting difference through its grassroots activism, and |
|
its members may take justifiable pride in the group's rich |
|
history of public engagement; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 85th |
|
Legislature, hereby honor the members of the Dallas County |
|
Council of Republican Women on the occasion of their visit to the |
|
State Capitol and extend sincere best wishes to the delegation |
|
for an informative and enjoyable stay in Austin; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for the |
|
council as an expression of high regard from the Texas Senate. |
