	CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
	WHEREAS, For too long, Congress has proven itself fiscally
	irresponsible and has created a crushing national debt through
	improvident and imprudent spending; and
	WHEREAS, The deleterious effect of this fiscal mismanagement
	on our economy and the strength of our nation is ongoing and the
	consequences of inaction are severe; and
	WHEREAS, Setting a federal budget is an essential aspect of
	governing, and Congress must accept its responsibility to regularly
	pass a budget bill; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the 85th Legislature of the State of Texas
	hereby respectfully urge the Congress of the United States to pass a
	budget; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That the Texas secretary of state forward official
	copies of this resolution to the president of the United States, to
	the president of the Senate and the speaker of the House of
	Representatives of the United States Congress, and to all the
	members of the Texas delegation to Congress with the request that
	this resolution be officially entered into the Congressional Record
	as a memorial to the Congress of the United States of America.
