SR 376 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Recognizing the City of Palestine for its contributions to the Lone Star State.

This Senate Resolution (SR 376) is a ceremonial honor recognizing the City of Palestine, Texas, for its historical significance and economic contributions to the state. It does not create new laws, allocate funding, or impose legal obligations. The resolution highlights Palestine's role as Anderson County's founding seat (1846), its development as a transportation hub after railroad investment in 1875, and its current status as a center for manufacturing, education, and historic preservation. The Texas Senate formally commended the city and will present a copy to Palestine officials as a symbol of recognition.
