Summary

HR2067 is a resolution that congratulates Roberto Gonzales, a businessman from San Antonio, Texas, on the reopening of his auto repair business, Advanced First Auto and Collision Center. This resolution recognizes Gonzales' commitment to his employees and the community during challenging economic times. On April 2, 2009, he relocated his business to save jobs and ensure his employees could maintain their livelihoods.
