HR 444 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Recognizing March 5, 2025, as Texas State Aquarium Day at the State Capitol.

This is a ceremonial resolution, not a substantive bill. It designates March 5, 2025, as "Texas State Aquarium Day" at the Texas State Capitol to honor the Texas State Aquarium in Corpus Christi. The resolution recognizes the aquarium's economic impact ($195 million in 2023), its wildlife rescue center (rehabilitating over 5,000 animals), and its educational programs (serving 5,100+ students). It does not create new laws or alter policies; it simply formally acknowledges the aquarium's contributions through a day of recognition.
