On Wednesday, Feb. 22, the Texas House of Representatives and State Senators honored county sheriffs from all across the state in their opening sessions at the Capitol building in Austin. The day is recognized as “Sheriffs’ Association of Texas Day” in Austin.
The group met with the Sheriff’s Association of Texas board of directors to discuss issues and bills that will be presented to the House and Senate.
Houston County Sheriff Randy Hargrove, who was among the attendees, said, “It was good to see my friends who serve as sheriffs of other Texas counties. I was proud to represent the citizens of Houston County as your sheriff on this special occasion.”
A resolution passed through the House of Representatives to honor the day noted the historic standing of county sheriffs as officers of the law and elected officials.
