H.R. No. 148 is a resolution recognizing February 2025 as American Heart Month in Texas, coinciding with the American Heart Association's Texas Advocacy Day rally at the State Capitol in Austin. The resolution highlights the critical issue of cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death and disability globally. It emphasizes the importance of awareness regarding heart disease risk factors, such as obesity, high blood pressure, and smoking, and encourages Texans to adopt healthier lifestyles through regular exercise, a balanced diet, and routine medical checkups.

The resolution also addresses the significance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the availability of automated external defibrillators in improving survival rates during cardiac emergencies. With over 350,000 cardiac arrests occurring outside hospitals each year, the resolution underscores the need for CPR education and community involvement in emergency response. By promoting heart health and emergency preparedness, the resolution aims to empower individuals to take proactive steps for their well-being and contribute to the overall health of the community.
