The Tinian/Talaga Legislative Delegation on a unanimous vote adopted Commemorative Resolution 24-02 recognizing Lieutenant Governor Diego Tenorio Benavente for his “long lasting dedication and contribution” to Tinian and the Northern Mariana Islands.

The chair told members the lieutenant governor had been scheduled to attend but was unable to come because of an unforeseen circumstance; delegation leaders and community members visited him and presented the resolution.

The adoption was procedural and ceremonial; there was no recorded opposition, no amendment to the resolution, and no follow-up action recorded on the floor. The delegation moved on to its bill calendar after the vote.
