Have You Heard About The Texas Silver-Haired Legislature?
The Texas Silver-Haired Legislature strives to promote good government for all Texans by directly involving Senior citizens in the legislative process. TSHL provides a nonpartisan forum for discussion and debate of Senior issues, advocacy training, and an avenue through which older citizens may serve as a resource to both public and private sectors.
Statement of Beliefs
Older citizens should have the opportunity to achieve dignity and independence.
Older citizens experience unique problems; they have special abilities and talents which result from years of experience.
Good government is the result of the active participation of informed citizens.
Being an informed and active voter is the highest responsibility of citizenship.
Effective and lasting solutions to problems result from involvement of those most closely related to the problems.
Volunteer representatives elected by their peers and having close contact with their constituents are qualified to discuss issues on aging and recommend solutions to problems of older Texans.
