WHEREAS, Phil Huddleston began his career with the staff of the Legislative Research Commission in 1980 as a Legislative Analyst, then as an Assistant to long-time LRC Director, the late Vic Hellard, as well as serving in other positions over the course of more than twenty years; and
WHEREAS, through decades of change as the General Assembly began its journey toward legislative independence, Phil Huddleston was instrumental in the establishment of what is now known as the Office of Constituent Services, providing citizens of Kentucky a direct link to their Senators and Representatives, and enhancing the ability of legislators to react to problems of their constituents; and

WHEREAS, throughout his career with the Legislative Research Commission, Phil Huddleston served the General Assembly and the people of the Commonwealth with unwavering devotion, selflessness and good humor, earning the trust of his colleagues and members of both chambers;
NOW, THEREFORE,
