House Concurrent Resolution No. 126 recognizes the city of Corrigan in Polk County as the official Timber Products Capital of Texas due to its significant contributions to the state's timber industry. The resolution highlights Corrigan's historical role in timber production, which began with the establishment of railways in the late 19th century, leading to the operation of numerous sawmills and the development of various timber-related businesses. Today, Corrigan is home to four major timber production plants and several smaller enterprises, producing essential products like plywood and lumber that support various industries across Texas.

Additionally, the resolution acknowledges the commitment of Corrigan's timber businesses to responsible forestry practices, which promote environmental sustainability and biodiversity. The Corrigan-Camden Independent School District plays a vital role in connecting students to the timber industry through career and technical education programs, such as the Woodworks Program, and partnerships with local manufacturers. The designation of Corrigan as the Timber Products Capital of Texas will remain in effect for ten years, celebrating the city's heritage and ongoing impact on the timber sector.
