        |  | SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION | 
      
        |  | WHEREAS, It is incumbent on elected officials at all levels | 
      
        |  | of government to work together in order to advance the will of the | 
      
        |  | people and help create a more prosperous future for our country; and | 
      
        |  | WHEREAS, When the President of the United States threatens | 
      
        |  | any member of the Texas Senate, it must be considered a threat to | 
      
        |  | all Texas Senators, as well as a threat to the civility and decorum | 
      
        |  | that are essential to a functioning democracy; moreover, the | 
      
        |  | president and the members of the executive branch of the federal | 
      
        |  | government should not focus on intimidating elected officials and | 
      
        |  | should instead focus on creating common sense legislation and | 
      
        |  | policies for the betterment of our country; now, therefore, be it | 
      
        |  | RESOLVED, That the 85th Legislature of the State of Texas | 
      
        |  | hereby encourage the President of the United States to refrain from | 
      
        |  | threatening elected officials. |
