Recognizing Port Freeport on the occasion of its 100th anniversary.
This resolution (SR 126) is a ceremonial recognition by the Texas Senate of Port Freeport's 100th anniversary in 2025. It commemorates the port's history, economic contributions (including $157.3 billion annual impact and 266,000 jobs), and role as a major U.S. trade gateway. The resolution does not create new policy or funding; it simply expresses the Senate's "high regard" by providing the port with an official copy of the resolution. As a commemorative measure, it has no legal effect on the port's operations or funding.
