H.R. No. 757
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Members of the Texas Chapter of the National
Emergency Number Association are gathering at the State Capitol on
March 3, 2015, and this occasion provides a welcome opportunity to
recognize the history and lifesaving legacy of the 9-1-1 emergency
number system across the state and nation; and
WHEREAS, In 1967, the Federal Communications Commission and
the U.S. Congress, in association with the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company, established 9-1-1 as a universal, all-purpose
emergency telephone number, and in February 1968, the first
ceremonial 9-1-1 call was made in Haleyville, Alabama; and
WHEREAS, Public safety telecommunicators are the vital link
between citizens calling for help and the agencies that assist
them, and for nearly half a century, 9-1-1 has been the nationally
recognized number to call for immediate help from the police, the
fire department, or emergency medical services; and
WHEREAS, More than 500 public safety answering points daily
serve the citizens of the Lone Star State by promptly responding to
their emergency calls and by dispatching appropriate assistance as
quickly as possible, and these dedicated telecommunicators,
emergency directors, planning professionals, and industry service
providers are ably represented by the Texas Chapter of the National
Emergency Number Association; and
WHEREAS, When seconds count, Texans turn to 9-1-1, and the
state chapter of NENA is dedicated to promoting and encouraging the
new and emerging technologies that are necessary to make 9-1-1 an
even faster, more accurate, and more reliable system; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 3, 2015, as 9-1-1 Day at the
State Capitol and extend to the visiting delegation from the Texas
Chapter of the National Emergency Number Association sincere best
wishes for a meaningful and memorable visit to Austin.
