	WHEREAS, A 15-year-old sophomore in the Miami Independent
	School District, Mr. Hale has demonstrated outstanding
	commitment and ability in raising his champion animal; he has
	been showing steers for the past eight years; and
	WHEREAS, This outstanding young Texan has brought great
	pride to his family and community, and he is indeed deserving of
	special recognition; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
	Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby congratulate Jett Hale
	on showing the grand champion youth market steer at the 75th
	annual Big Tex Youth Livestock Auction and extend to him sincere
	best wishes for continued success; and, be it further
