| WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||

| WHEREAS, Pancho Ochoa is the patriarch of a family that | ||
| operates three successful restaurant chains with multiple | ||
| locations on both sides of the Texas-Mexico border; he got his | ||
| start more than 40 years ago by opening a small restaurant known | ||

| this highly competitive industry by maintaining high standards | ||
| of food quality and consistency and by ensuring that each | ||
