|
||
| WHEREAS, Members of the Texas Court Reporters Association are | ||
| celebrating Texas Court Reporting and Captioning Week from February | ||
| 9 to 16, 2019; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Since the 1930s, the association has worked to | ||
| advance the field of stenographic reporting through education and | ||
| advocacy; TCRA is dedicated to promoting the accuracy and | ||
| impartiality that are the hallmarks of the courtroom professional, | ||
| and the group provides its members with a valuable forum for | ||
| discussion and study; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Court reporters undergo several years of training to | ||
| achieve different levels of certification; they develop typing | ||
| speeds upwards of 280 words per minute, allowing them to capture | ||
| every word of legal proceedings; in addition, they are required to | ||
| complete continuing education courses throughout their careers to | ||
| ensure that they remain at the forefront of technological | ||
| developments and that they have full knowledge of current | ||
| procedures in their industry; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Court reporters play a vital role in our nation's | ||
| legal system, and this observance offers an ideal opportunity to | ||
| acknowledge their important contributions; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the 86th Legislature of the State of Texas | ||
| hereby recognize February 9 to 16, 2019, as Texas Court Reporting | ||
| and Captioning Week and extend to the members of the Texas Court | ||
| Reporters Association sincere best wishes for continued success in | ||
| their endeavors; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for the association as an expression of high regard by the | ||
| Texas House of Representatives and Senate. | ||
