SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 1000
	WHEREAS, Members of the Los Carnales/La Familia Motorcycle
	Club are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their organization
	on December 12, 2015; and
	WHEREAS, The club was established in 1995 by a group of
	Houston police officers who shared a love for the open road and
	American-manufactured V-Twin motorcycles, as well as a
	commitment to community service; founding members included
	Mondel Martin, Russell Fisher, Max Williams, Rock Rheinhart, and
	John Gonzalez; the civic-minded organization, which continues to
	draw its membership largely from the ranks of law enforcement but
	has grown to include like-minded family members and friends, has
	since expanded outside Texas and even beyond the borders of the
	United States, and it now encompasses 28 chapters; and
	WHEREAS, Over the years, Texas chapters have benefited a
	host of worthy organizations across the Lone Star State, among
	them the Arc of Fort Bend County, World for Children, the Spring
	Branch Elementary Bike Give-Away, Court Appointed Special
	Advocates, Navidad en el Barrio, the Peace Officers Memorial
	Foundation, and The Crisis Center in Matagorda and Wharton
	Counties; and
	WHEREAS, For two decades, the Los Carnales/La Familia
	Motorcycle Club has promoted camaraderie and charitable giving,
	and this significant milestone provides an ideal opportunity to
	recognize the group for its contributions; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 84th
	Legislature, hereby commemorate the 20th anniversary of the
	founding of the Los Carnales/La Familia Motorcycle Club and
	extend to its members sincere best wishes for a memorable and
	meaningful celebration; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
	prepared for the club as an expression of high regard from the
	Texas Senate.
	Menéndez
