6 | 7 | | 2017 provides an ideal opportunity to acknowledge the historic |
---|
7 | 8 | | contributions made by women in the Lone Star State and beyond; and |
---|
8 | 9 | | WHEREAS, Since the founding of the Texas Republic, women have |
---|
9 | 10 | | played crucial roles in the social, economic, and cultural spheres; |
---|
10 | 11 | | Texas women participated in the abolitionist movement, and they not |
---|
11 | 12 | | only secured their own right to vote but have also worked in behalf |
---|
12 | 13 | | of all citizens to promote equal opportunity, civil rights, peace, |
---|
13 | 14 | | and justice; and |
---|
14 | 15 | | WHEREAS, Examples of the noteworthy accomplishments of women |
---|
15 | 16 | | abound; educator and suffragist Annie Webb Blanton became the first |
---|
16 | 17 | | woman in Texas to hold a statewide public office when she was |
---|
17 | 18 | | elected state superintendent for public instruction in 1918; |
---|
18 | 19 | | aviation pioneer Bessie Coleman, born in Atlanta, Texas, in 1892, |
---|
19 | 20 | | became the first African American woman to receive a pilot's |
---|
20 | 21 | | license and embarked on a career as a stunt flyer; the daughter of |
---|
21 | 22 | | migrant workers, Rebecca Flores Harrington was the first in her |
---|
22 | 23 | | family to attend college, and after graduating from the University |
---|
23 | 24 | | of Michigan, she dedicated herself to social justice and became |
---|
24 | 25 | | head of the Texas chapter of the United Farm Workers movement; |
---|
25 | 26 | | engineer Frances "Poppy" Northcutt was the first woman to hold an |
---|
26 | 27 | | operational support role in NASA's mission control, and she served |
---|
27 | 28 | | as president of the Houston chapter of the National Organization |
---|
28 | 29 | | for Women; after leaving hit pop group Destiny's Child, Beyoncé |
---|
29 | 30 | | Knowles built an even bigger solo career and established herself as |
---|
30 | 31 | | a business mogul and cultural icon while embracing feminism; |
---|
31 | 32 | | Barbara Bush, the daughter of former president George W. Bush, |
---|
32 | 33 | | cofounded Global Health Corps and, at 26, became chief executive of |
---|
33 | 34 | | the leadership development organization, which focuses on health |
---|
34 | 35 | | equity; and |
---|
35 | 36 | | WHEREAS, The strength of our nation depends heavily on the |
---|
36 | 37 | | continued advancement of women; by acknowledging the enormous |
---|
37 | 38 | | positive impact they have made, we encourage future generations to |
---|
38 | 39 | | ensure that gender is not an obstacle that must be overcome on the |
---|
39 | 40 | | road to achievement; now, therefore, be it |
---|
40 | 41 | | RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
---|
41 | 42 | | Legislature hereby recognize March as Women's History Month and |
---|
42 | 43 | | celebrate the contributions made by women to this state and nation. |
