SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 166
|
|
|
WHEREAS, The observance of Green Light Houston Day at the |
|
|
State Capitol on February 26, 2025, provides a welcome |
|
|
opportunity to recognize Transportation Advocacy Group-Houston |
|
|
Region for its many achievements; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Founded in 2011, TAG Houston is an affiliate of |
|
|
the Greater Houston Partnership; the organization works to |
|
|
increase mobility and enhance the quality of life for area |
|
|
citizens, and it has played an instrumental role in the passage |
|
|
of transportation legislation at the local and state levels; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, TAG has helped to build the city's reputation as a |
|
|
hub for transportation; Houston boasts an extensive network of |
|
|
roadways that encompasses major highways such as Interstate 10 |
|
|
and Interstate 45, and its rail system serves as a critical |
|
|
resource for the movement of both freight and passengers; in |
|
|
addition, the city features a robust maritime system that |
|
|
includes the Port of Houston, one of the largest ports in the |
|
|
United States; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Since 2015, TAG has spearheaded Green Light |
|
|
Houston Day to raise awareness of the region's mobility needs and |
|
|
discuss transportation projects with legislators; for this |
|
|
year's event, the organization is joined by the Highway 36A |
|
|
Coalition, BayTran, and the I-69 Alliance; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, TAG Houston has contributed greatly to the growth |
|
|
and prosperity of the region through its focused and effective |
|
|
advocacy, and the organization is indeed deserving of |
|
|
recognition for its outstanding service; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 89th |
|
|
Legislature, hereby recognize February 26, 2025, as Green Light |
|
|
Houston Day at the State Capitol and extend a warm welcome to the |
|
|
visiting delegation. |
