House Memorial 48 proposes to officially declare February 4, 2026, as "Valencia County Day" in the New Mexico House of Representatives. The memorial highlights the rich historical and cultural significance of Valencia County, detailing its foundational communities, agricultural heritage, and economic contributions. It recognizes key locations such as the city of Belen, known for its strategic position along the Camino Real and its role as a logistics hub, as well as the town of Peralta, which has historical ties to the American Civil War. The memorial also acknowledges the contributions of the Pueblo of Isleta and the Hispano chamber of Valencia County in preserving local traditions and promoting economic growth.

The resolution calls for copies of the memorial to be sent to the mayors of Belen, Los Lunas, Bosque Farms, Peralta, and Rio Communities, as well as the chair of the board of county commissioners of Valencia County. This declaration aims to celebrate the county's heritage, community achievements, and its status as a growing economic center in New Mexico, bolstered by technological advancements and a strong manufacturing presence.
