	H.R. No. 91



	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, In April of each year, National Crime Victims'
	Rights Week is sponsored by criminal justice and victim service
	practitioners as an occasion to publicize and affirm the rights of
	those who suffer as victims of violent crime; and
	WHEREAS, During this week, many public education and
	community awareness activities are held to help the citizens of
	Texas understand the experience of crime victims and to learn about
	the many critical services available to those who fall prey to
	criminal offenders; and
	WHEREAS, Violent crime affects the lives of countless Texans
	each year, and it is crucial that all citizens be aware of their
	legal rights and the full range of services available to victims,
	for only in this way can the criminal justice system truly function
	in behalf of the innocent as well as the guilty; and
	WHEREAS, It is entirely fitting that the Texas House of
	Representatives lend its full support to this worthy observance and
	make every effort to promote greater awareness of crime victims'
	rights in every jurisdiction of this state; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize National Crime Victims' Rights Week in
	2018 and commend the many dedicated professionals and volunteers
	who are working to secure rights and services for the victims of
	crime.

	Alonzo
