0014|          WHEREAS, former legislators served their constituents and
    |
0015|     all citizens of the state during their terms of office, working
    |
0016|     tirelessly year round, often to the detriment of their own

    |
0018|          WHEREAS, they served virtually without recompense; and
    |
0019|          WHEREAS, former legislators can serve as a great resource
    |
0020|     and historical perspective for current legislators; and
    |
0021|          WHEREAS, when former legislators come to visit the
    |
0022|     legislature when it is in session, they should have a place to
    |
0023|     relax, meet with people and make local telephone calls;
    |
0024|          NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE
    |
0025|     STATE OF NEW MEXICO that the chief clerks work together to find
    |

    |
0002|     furnish it as a hospitality room for former legislators who are
    |
0003|     visiting during the legislative session and are not paid
    |
0004|     lobbyists; and
    |
0005|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this memorial be
    |
