The resolution recognizes February 25, 2025, as Texas Hispanic Judges' Day at the State Capitol, celebrating the contributions of Hispanic judges to the Texas judiciary. Despite the Hispanic population in Texas being over 40%, Hispanic judges represent only 16% of the state's judiciary. The resolution highlights the significant impact of notable Hispanic judges, such as Reynaldo Garza and Eva Guzman, and acknowledges the formation of the first statewide Hispanic judges' organization aimed at promoting excellence, diversity, and integrity within the judicial profession.
The resolution commends the more than 500 Hispanic judges serving across Texas for their dedication to equal justice and their commitment to public service. It expresses best wishes for a memorable event in Austin, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the contributions of Hispanic judges to the state's legal system and the ongoing efforts to enhance diversity and inclusion within the judiciary.
