HOUSE RESOLUTION

3 media and government is driven by inflexible deadlines and
4 space constraints and the complexity of translating the
5 nomenclature to everyday English; and
 
6     WHEREAS, The people of Illinois have had a unique
7 opportunity to learn more about the legislative process and
8 State government in the words of those who make those decisions
9 through the combined efforts of the State's public broadcasting
10 stations; and
 
11     WHEREAS, The talents of broadcasters, producers, and
12 journalists from across the State were brought together in this
13 pursuit to focus on issues and allow for true discussions; and
 
14     WHEREAS, These efforts have come to be known as the
15 Illinois Lawmakers series; and
 
16     WHEREAS, As the 2006 Spring Session heads toward
17 adjournment, the Illinois Lawmakers celebrates the 20th
18 anniversary of its inaugural presentation; therefore, be it
 
19     RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
20 NINETY-FOURTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that
21 the public broadcasters of Illinois be saluted for their
22 efforts to go beyond the sound bites and news briefs to offer

24 the past two decades; and be it further
 
25     RESOLVED, That the special efforts of the hundreds of
26 technicians, the on-air work of many broadcasters, including

28 commitment of executive producer Marty McLaughlin of WTTW-TV be
29 recognized in this anniversary season; and be it further
