  3        EMPLOYEES AND DESIGNATING MAY 7 THROUGH 11 AS IDAHO PUBLIC EMPLOYEE RECOG-
  4        NITION WEEK.
                                                                        
  5    Be It Resolved by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:
                                                                        
  6        WHEREAS,  in  the  name of service to the state of Idaho and its citizens,
  7    public employees have, with their commitment to excellence  and  diversity  of
  8    skills, made great contributions to this society in areas such as: keeping our
  9    highways  open in the winter and in tip-top shape throughout the year; provid-
 10    ing the highest caliber of statewide police protection; maintaining our  parks
 11    and  forests;  helping us cope with emergencies; helping us guard against con-
 12    tagious disease; protecting our air and  land  against  pollution;  furnishing
 13    guidance  to the youthful and the elderly; providing essential training to the
 14    deaf, the blind and the handicapped; advancing our education through our state
 15    schools and colleges; giving vital assistance to public libraries all over the
 16    state; keeping farmers informed on the latest  agricultural  developments  and
 17    assisting  them in marketing problems; working with us to develop new products
 18    to preserve and boost the state's economy; bringing educational programs  into
 19    our homes through television, radio and online programs; and
 20        WHEREAS,  the  effectiveness and efficiency of government depends in large
 21    measure on public employees, whose task it is to provide a broad range of ser-
 22    vices of the quality and quantity required and expected by  the  public  on  a
 23    daily basis; and
 24        WHEREAS, the importance of public service rendered by public employees and
 25    the  exemplary manner of their performance are too often forgotten, ignored or
 26    underestimated; and
 27        WHEREAS, the state of Idaho recognizes the dedication, talents and contri-
 28    butions made to the state by public employees in all levels of government  and
 29    the  Idaho  Legislature  finds it fitting to set aside a special time to honor
 30    and thank these dedicated individuals who perform such a vital role in all our
 31    lives.
 32        NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the members of the Second  Regular  Ses-
 33    sion  of the Fifty-sixth Idaho Legislature, the Senate and the House of Repre-
 34    sentatives concurring therein, that we proclaim the week of May 7 through  11,
 35    2002,  as "IDAHO PUBLIC EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION WEEK" in Idaho, asking the Gover-
 36    nor, along with governors of other states across the nation to sign a  procla-
 37    mation on Wednesday, May 9, 2002, asking department heads of state entities to
 38    give  special  recognition  of their employees during that week and urging the
 39    citizens to give the proper recognition, support, commendation and  thanks  to
 40    these dedicated public servants who go the extra mile to help us attain a good
 41    quality of life.
