Commemorating the opening of the Mexican American Cultural Center in El Paso.
This is a ceremonial resolution (not a law) passed by the Texas House to honor the March 2025 opening of the Mexican American Cultural Center (MACC) in El Paso. It recognizes the center's role in celebrating border cultures, Indigenous heritage (including Lipan Apache, Piro, and other regional tribes), and community traditions. The resolution has no binding effect - it simply expresses legislative support and will be presented to the MACC as a symbolic gesture. It directly affects the MACC and the El Paso community it serves.
