WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to | ||
join the members of the Montgomery County Republican Party in | ||
celebrating the reopening of the party's historic | ||
headquarters; and | ||
WHEREAS, In 1964, the members of the County Executive | ||
Committee determined there was a need for a full-time | ||
headquarters to establish the party's political presence in | ||
Montgomery County and to provide a necessary base for the party's | ||
activities; and | ||
WHEREAS, The party headquarters opened in 1965 and was | ||
originally located in a single room adjacent to the lobby of the | ||
State Hotel in Conroe; the party faced the challenge of finding a | ||
painter who would create a Republican Party sign at the time, and | ||
the sign that was eventually painted and hung above the entrance | ||
remains at the current headquarters as a reminder of the | ||
obstacles overcome by past members of the Montgomery County | ||
Republican Party; and | ||
WHEREAS, A larger facility was used for a time as the | ||
headquarters to accommodate the party's needs, and the party led | ||
multiple successful campaigns in the late 1980s and early 1990s; | ||
through the creation and continuing support of the party's | ||
Roundtable, Business Council, and Sustaining Member Program, | ||
funds were raised to enable the party to relocate its | ||
headquarters to the former lobby of the State Hotel; the historic | ||
building continues to host the members of the Montgomery County | ||
Republican Party and to serve as a much-needed headquarters; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 87th | ||
Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby congratulate the | ||
Montgomery County Republican Party on a successful reopening of | ||
its headquarters and commend the party's members for their | ||
continued commitment to civic and political engagement; and, be | ||
it further | ||
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for | ||
the Montgomery County Republican Party as an expression of esteem | ||
from the Texas Senate. | ||
