WHEREAS, The Texas House of Representatives is pleased to |
|
|
join Texas REALTORS and Texans across the state in celebrating |
|
|
March 22, 2023, as REALTOR Day at the Texas Capitol; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The Texas Association of REALTORS, known as Texas |
|
|
REALTORS, has more than 150,000 members; it is the largest |
|
|
professional association in Texas, and its members are engaged in |
|
|
every aspect of the state's diverse real estate interests, |
|
|
including farm and ranch, property management, and international, |
|
|
residential, and commercial real estate; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Real estate and housing are essential to state and |
|
|
local economies; property purchases produce jobs in the |
|
|
construction industry, and each transaction contributes greatly to |
|
|
the growth and prosperity of our local communities; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, REALTORS adhere to a strict code of ethics that |
|
|
demands competence, fairness, and integrity in carrying out the |
|
|
work in their profession; as the Texas housing market experiences |
|
|
unprecedented demand, REALTORS demonstrate an impressive ability |
|
|
to adapt to changing conditions so that Texans can continue to |
|
|
pursue the American dream of home ownership; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, During sessions of the Texas Legislature, Texas |
|
|
REALTORS traditionally converge at the Capitol to meet with elected |
|
|
officials to discuss issues critical to the Texas real estate |
|
|
industry; it is indeed fitting that a day be set aside to honor |
|
|
Texas REALTORS; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby recognize March 22, 2023, as REALTOR Day at the |
|
|
State Capitol and commend Texas REALTORS on their many |
|
|
contributions to our state. |
