Commemorating January 27, 2025, as International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
This resolution (HR 116) formally designates January 27, 2025, as "International Holocaust Remembrance Day" for the Texas House of Representatives. It commemorates the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau and aligns with the United Nations' designation of January 27 as the global observance date. The resolution does not create new laws or obligations but serves as a symbolic statement to honor Holocaust victims and survivors, and to address ongoing antisemitism. It directly affects Texas state government by directing the House to recognize this day through official observance.
