Commending Firefly Aerospace for its contributions to Texas.
This resolution (HR 1355) is a symbolic gesture by the Texas House of Representatives commending Firefly Aerospace for its economic and technological contributions to Texas. It specifically recognizes the company’s $500+ million investment in Central Texas since 2017, creation of 700+ jobs, development of lunar landers (including a historic 2025 moon landing), and support for STEM education. The resolution does not create new laws or funding; it merely expresses formal appreciation and will deliver an official copy to Firefly Aerospace. It directly affects Firefly Aerospace as the recipient of this recognition.
