CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
         WHEREAS, United Nations Agenda 21 is a comprehensive plan
  that promotes environmental extremism and social engineering; and
         WHEREAS, Initiated at the United Nations Conference on
  Environment and Development held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in
  1992, Agenda 21 pushes so-called "sustainable development" that
  would be implemented at the expense of private property ownership,
  single-family homes, and individual transportation choices; and
         WHEREAS, This pernicious agenda is being advanced in
  communities across the United States by ICLEI—Local Governments for
  Sustainability, which supports such programs as "Smart Growth
  America," "Resilient Cities," and other "green" projects; and
         WHEREAS, Through Agenda 21, the United Nations is attempting
  to exert an anticapitalist influence on American communities;
  currently, the agenda has no binding force on the federal
  government or on any state or local government, but it is vital that
  all agencies, entities, and governments remain vigilant about its
  radical policies and reject its implementation outright; now,
  therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the 83rd Legislature of the State of Texas
  hereby express its opposition to United Nations Agenda 21; and, be
  it further
         RESOLVED, That the Texas secretary of state forward official
  copies of this resolution to the president of the United States, to
  the president of the Senate and speaker of the House of
  Representatives of the United States Congress, and to all the
  members of the Texas delegation to Congress with the request that
  this resolution be officially entered in the Congressional Record.
