Senate Resolution No. 129 recognizes the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) for its significant contributions to rural health care, education, and research in Texas. The resolution commemorates an event on February 26, 2025, where students, faculty, and staff will gather at the State Capitol to celebrate the university's legacy since its establishment in 1969. TTUHSC, which has evolved into a comprehensive health research institution, is dedicated to addressing the health care needs of the underserved West Texas region, which includes 121 counties and a substantial portion of the state's population and land mass.

The resolution highlights TTUHSC's commitment to providing high-quality academic and clinical education, having graduated over 42,000 health care professionals across various disciplines. The institution is composed of six schools and is recognized nationally for its innovative programs and research, particularly in rural health care. TTUHSC has also pioneered telehealth initiatives to improve access to care in underserved areas. The Texas Senate expresses its high regard for TTUHSC and extends best wishes for its continued success, with an official copy of the resolution to be prepared for the university.
