Senate Resolution No. 15 commemorates January 27, 2025, as International Holocaust Remembrance Day, marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. This day serves as a solemn occasion to honor the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and the countless others who suffered under the Nazi regime. The United Nations General Assembly established this observance in 2005, emphasizing the importance of remembrance and education, with the 2025 theme focusing on "Holocaust Remembrance and Education for Dignity and Human Rights."

The resolution also highlights the ongoing threats of antisemitism and violence against Jewish communities, citing a significant number of antisemitic incidents reported in the U.S. and a global survey indicating widespread antisemitic attitudes. By promoting a deeper understanding of the Holocaust, the resolution aims to foster vigilance against prejudice and hatred, reinforcing a collective commitment to uphold human dignity. The Texas Senate officially adopted this resolution on January 28, 2025.
