ASSEMBLY CONCURRENT RESOLUTION--Urging the Clark County School District to name a school after former Legislator Marvin M. Sedway.

Whereas, Marvin M. Sedway, a highly respected and sagacious former member of the Nevada Legislature, believed that a decent society is obligated to provide a superior education for its children; and
Whereas, Marvin Sedway carried an unshakable belief in the power of education and fought to make the education of children a top priority of our government; and
Whereas, The poster displayed in Marvin Sedway's office, which read "It will be a great day when our schools get all the money they need and the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber," illustrated his commitment to education; and
Whereas, Marvin Sedway's unflagging efforts to help the poor, the homeless, the elderly and all those with little power in our society gained him broad respect in the Legislature and throughout the state; and
Whereas, Marvin Sedway was a man of uncommon distinction who made certain he made a difference in the lives of the people of the State of Nevada; and
Whereas, The people of the State of Nevada will long remember Marvin Sedway for his compassion, drive and valuable public service; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Assembly of the State of Nevada, the Senate Concurring, That the members of the 69th session of the Nevada Legislature do respectfully urge the Clark County School District to honor a distinguished Nevadan, Marvin M. Sedway, by naming a school after him; and be it further
Resolved, That the Chief Clerk of the Assembly prepare and transmit a copy of this resolution to each member of the Board of Trustees of the Clark County School District.
