The resolution recognizes March 4, 2025, as Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Day at the Texas State Capitol, celebrating the fraternity's significant legacy of civic engagement and activism. Founded on December 4, 1906, at Cornell University, Alpha Phi Alpha was the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity established by African Americans, created to support minority students facing racial prejudice. The fraternity has a rich history of promoting scholarship, fellowship, character, and social justice, with notable members such as W. E. B. Du Bois, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Thurgood Marshall, who have played pivotal roles in the civil rights movement.

The resolution highlights Alpha Phi Alpha's evolution into an interracial organization since 1945, with chapters across the United States, including a strong presence in Texas, where several prominent leaders have been alumni. For over a century, the fraternity has fostered a brotherhood dedicated to the greater good, and the resolution expresses the Texas House of Representatives' high regard for the organization and its members, wishing them continued success in their endeavors. An official copy of the resolution will be prepared for the fraternity as a token of appreciation.
