A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE AMAZON'S SPARTANBURG FULFILLMENT CENTER ON YEARS OF CONTINUED SUCCESS AND TO RECOGNIZE THE EFFORTS OF THE FACILITY'S LEADERSHIP TO SUPPORT THEIR COMMUNITY BY DONATING CRITICAL EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT TO FIRST RESPONDERS.

Whereas, Amazon opened a one million square foot fulfillment center in Spartanburg in 2013, specializing in shipping larger items to fulfill a customer's online wish; and

Whereas, in addition to serving commercial needs and employing the citizens of Spartanburg, the facility has constantly supported the local community's law enforcement, fire, rescue, and emergency management services agencies through the donation of critical emergency equipment to help first responders continue to save lives; and

Whereas, along with the local donations, equipment has also been donated to state entities including the South Carolina Fire Academy, the South Carolina State Forestry Equipment, and the South Carolina Urban Search and Rescue Task Force; and

Whereas, thankful for Amazon's commitment to the safety and preservation of life in its community, it is altogether fitting for the House to pause in its deliberations and recognize the incredible efforts of Amazon's Spartanburg fulfillment center. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate Amazon's Spartanburg fulfillment center on years of continued success and recognize the efforts of the facility's leadership to support their community by donating critical emergency equipment to first responders.
