H.R. No. 815 is a resolution recognizing April 10, 2025, as Erath County Day at the Texas State Capitol. The resolution highlights the history and significance of Erath County, which was established in 1856 and named after George B. Erath, an original surveyor of the area. The county has a rich agricultural heritage, with cotton farming, fruit orchards, and dairy and poultry farms playing key roles in its early economy. Additionally, coal mining and the establishment of the Thurber Brick Company in 1918 contributed to local employment. The county seat, Stephenville, is noted for its historical significance, including the 1892 Erath County Courthouse and its designation as a Main Street community by the Texas Historical Commission.

The resolution also emphasizes the educational institutions in the area, including the Stephenville Independent School District, which serves around 3,600 students, and higher education facilities such as Ranger College and Tarleton State University. Tarleton, a member of The Texas A&M University System, has a diverse student body of over 17,000 and offers a wide range of degree programs. The resolution concludes by celebrating Erath County's rich Western heritage and the pride of its citizens, extending a warm welcome to the visiting delegation at the Capitol.
