Senate Resolution No. 123 recognizes the significant contributions of the Consulate General of France in Houston to the longstanding relationship between France and Texas, which dates back to the 17th century. The resolution highlights key historical events, such as the arrival of French explorer René-Robert Cavelier and the establishment of early French settlements in Texas, as well as France's early recognition of the Republic of Texas. It notes the ongoing economic ties, with trade between Texas and France amounting to $15.6 billion in 2022, and the presence of numerous French companies investing in the state.

The resolution also commends the current efforts of Consul General Valérie Baraban and the consulate's initiatives to support French citizens in Texas, promote business and cultural exchanges, and enhance language learning through programs like Villa Albertine. The Texas Senate expresses its appreciation for the consulate's role in fostering a vibrant and mutually beneficial relationship between France and Texas, and it resolves to honor the consulate with an official copy of the resolution as a token of high regard.
