R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Members of the Leadership Southwest Class of 2015
are visiting the State Capitol on March 18, 2015, to gain further
insight about state government; and
WHEREAS, An initiative of the communities of southwest Dallas
County, Leadership Southwest had 23 participants in its inaugural
class of 1985, and over the ensuing 30 years it has graduated more
than 1,000 civic-minded individuals; the organization is a
cooperative effort sponsored by the Cedar Hill, DeSoto,
Duncanville, Lancaster, and Oak Cliff Chambers of Commerce that
works to develop tomorrow's leaders and inspire the spirit of
activism for the public good; and
WHEREAS, The nine-month program involves discussions with
area leaders on critical issues facing the community and seminars
on topics such as education, law enforcement, the arts, government,
economic growth, health, and transportation; many participants go
on to serve their fellow Texans on the boards of schools, hospitals,
and other institutions or through elected offices; and
WHEREAS, One highlight of the program is a legislative day
that is held in collaboration with the Best Southwest Partnership,
an organization representing 12 cities and many area chambers of
commerce, school districts, and businesses that work together to
encourage regional prosperity; and
WHEREAS, Endeavoring to foster a more informed and involved
citizenry and to develop new leaders, Leadership Southwest is
helping build a brighter future for the Lone Star State; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 18, 2015, as Leadership
Southwest Day at the State Capitol and extend to all participants
sincere best wishes for an informative and enjoyable stay in
Austin; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Leadership Southwest as an expression of high regard
by the Texas House of Representatives.
