HCR 145 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Commemorating the dedication of the Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge.

This concurrent resolution (HCR 145) formally commemorates the renaming of the Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge to the Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge. It honors Jocelyn Nungaray, a 12-year-old girl known for her compassion toward animals who passed away in 2024. The resolution recognizes the U.S. Secretary of the Interior's March 2025 order renaming the 39,000-acre Texas Gulf Coast refuge in her honor. As a commemorative resolution, it has no policy impact but publicly acknowledges Jocelyn's legacy of caring for wildlife.
