H.R. No. 88 |
|
||
WHEREAS, During the 82nd Legislative Session, Alda Santana | ||
has ably served her fellow Texans as senior legislative assistant | ||
in the office of State Representative Eddie Rodriguez; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ms. Santana joined the staff as a legislative aide | ||
and was quickly promoted to district director; two weeks later, she | ||
earned promotion again to senior legislative assistant; and | ||
WHEREAS, A native of Puerto Rico, Ms. Santana holds a | ||
master's degree in social work from The University of Texas at | ||
Austin; she has brought considerable energy, intelligence, and | ||
expertise to her many responsibilities, helping Representative | ||
Rodriguez with legislation on such vital issues as public health, | ||
food safety, and animal welfare; she has been particularly | ||
passionate about protecting children from hazardous chemicals and | ||
working for passage of the "Cottage Food Bill"; and | ||
WHEREAS, Ms. Santana also brightened the office every day | ||
with her contagious laugh and her love for Bertrum Thumbcat, and she | ||
helped initiate an important new tradition in the office known as | ||
"Waffle Wednesday"; this dynamic young woman further distinguished | ||
herself with her affinity for red-haired Irishmen, though she will | ||
be hard pressed to find any of those in South America, where she | ||
hopes to journey in the fall; and | ||
WHEREAS, Alda Santana has provided indispensible support | ||
throughout her tenure with the Texas House of Representatives, and | ||
she is indeed deserving of special recognition for her fine work in | ||
behalf of House District 51; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby commend Alda Santana for | ||
her service as senior legislative assistant in the office of State | ||
Representative Eddie Rodriguez and extend to her sincere best | ||
wishes for continued success in all her endeavors; and, be it | ||
further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Ms. Santana as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas House of Representatives. | ||
Rodriguez | ||
