|
the opportunity to honor the members of the Texas Legislative Study |

is an official caucus of the Texas House of Representatives that |

relies on facts and evidence to promote progressive solutions to |
|
|
the challenges facing the citizens of the Lone Star State; the |

study all aspects of a bill before making a recommendation; and |

outstanding work; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby commend the staff of the Texas Legislative Study |
