HR 126 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Commending Gabriela Garza for designing the House District 35 ornament for the Lone Star Celebration Christmas Tree.

HR 126 is a ceremonial resolution commending Gabriela Garza, a junior at Edinburg North High School, for designing the ornament representing House District 35 for the Lone Star Celebration Christmas Tree at the Texas State Capitol. The resolution highlights her achievements in art, including winning national awards and being selected for the Congressional Art Competition twice. It does not create new laws or affect policies; instead, it formally honors her work and includes a commitment to provide her with an official copy of the resolution. This is a symbolic gesture by the Texas House of Representatives to recognize a student artist's contributions to a state Capitol holiday tradition.
