0015|          WHEREAS, former legislators served their constituents and
    |
0016|     all citizens of the state during their terms of office, working

    |
0019|          WHEREAS, they served virtually without recompense; and
    |

    |
0021|     and historical perspective for current legislators; and
    |
0022|          WHEREAS, when former legislators come to visit the
    |
0023|     legislature when it is in session, they should have a place to
    |
0024|     relax, meet with people and make local telephone calls;
    |
0025|          NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE
    |
0001|     STATE OF NEW MEXICO that the chief clerks work together to
    |

    |
0004|     session and who are not paid lobbyists; and
    |
0005|          BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this memorial be
