R E S O L U T I O N
 
         WHEREAS, Evelyn Barnett has served with distinction as
  Democratic Party precinct chair of Precinct 2050 in Fort Bend
  County for the past 42 years; and
         WHEREAS, Precinct chairs are integral to the success of their
  party's mission to elect public servants who will build a better
  state and nation for today's citizenry and for generations to come;
  they represent their precinct on the County Executive Committee,
  bridge the gap between voters and elected officials, and serve as a
  point of contact for the Democratic Party on the local level; and
         WHEREAS, Because public policy affects our daily lives,
  individuals must exercise their right to vote, and precinct chairs
  play an important role in the election process; their efforts to
  inspire voters to support their party's candidates are part of a
  proud and vital political tradition; and
         WHEREAS, It is most appropriate that we take this opportunity
  to recognize an outstanding Texan who has distinguished herself as
  the longest continuously serving Democratic Party precinct chair in
  the history of the county, having devoted more than four decades of
  her life to such party goals as achieving economic equality,
  ensuring an affordable college education, and advancing a more just
  and inclusive society; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
  Legislature hereby commend Evelyn Barnett for her 42 years of
  service as Democratic Party precinct chair of Precinct 2050 in Fort
  Bend County and extend to this dedicated community leader sincere
  best wishes for the future; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for Ms. Barnett as an expression of high regard by the
  Texas House of Representatives.
