SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 60
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.
