WHEREAS, For 22 years, El Día de los Niños/El Día de los | ||
Libros has made a positive difference in the lives of countless | ||
young Texans by fostering a greater love for learning, and the | ||
Nueces County Public Libraries are indeed worthy of recognition for | ||
their participation in this event; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
