| H.R. No. 922 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, The Texas Consilium has played an instrumental role | ||
| in fostering a strong and competitive manufacturing industry in the | ||
| Lone Star State; and | ||
| WHEREAS, This nonprofit corporation was formed in July 2015 | ||
| through a partnership between the Texas Manufacturing Assistance | ||
| Center and The University of Texas at Arlington; dedicated to | ||
| economic development, the organization maintains a statewide | ||
| network of resource providers that offer technical and business | ||
| assistance to small- and medium-sized manufacturers; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Texas Consilium is providing valuable support | ||
| for an essential segment of the state's economy; the manufacturing | ||
| industry employs nearly 875,000 Texans and ranks highest in the | ||
| nation for manufacturing exports and shipment value; attracted by | ||
| the Texas Wide Open for Business campaign, many companies continue | ||
| to relocate to the Lone Star State for its business-friendly | ||
| environment and proven record of growth in a wide range of | ||
| industries, including aerospace, health care, technology, and | ||
| transportation; and | ||
| WHEREAS, By bringing together highly experienced executives | ||
| and professionals to work toward a common goal, the Texas Consilium | ||
| is helping to bolster a crucial component of our state's economy, | ||
| creating more jobs and greater prosperity for Texas residents; now, | ||
| therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby honor the Texas Consilium for its significant | ||
| contributions to the state's economy and that all those associated | ||
| with the organization be extended sincere best wishes for continued | ||
| success; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for the Texas Consilium as an expression of high regard by | ||
| the Texas House of Representatives. | ||
