United States Congress, and a variety of local, state, and national | ||
government agencies and public policy organizations; and | ||
WHEREAS, Students receive academic credit for participating | ||
in the program, which combines academic study and research with | ||

admirable young men and women have contributed significantly to the | ||
offices they have served and, in turn, to the constituents who | ||
reside in their districts; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby commend the members of the Texas Legislative | ||
