The resolution honors the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo (YDSP) tribe for their significant contributions to their community, culture, and the El Paso region. As one of three federally recognized Native American tribes in Texas, the YDSP has a rich history dating back to the 17th century when they relocated from New Mexico. They have established themselves as industrious farmers and have played a pivotal role in the development of the El Paso area, including the establishment of the Ysleta Mission and a government that is considered the oldest in Texas. Today, the tribe consists of over 4,000 members and actively engages in various business ventures that provide employment and essential services such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure.

The resolution also highlights the tribe's commitment to self-governance and community development, emphasizing their focus on workforce training and job creation. The YDSP maintains strong relationships with neighboring communities while preserving their cultural heritage. Current tribal officials are recognized for their leadership, and the resolution expresses the Texas House of Representatives' high regard for the tribe's ongoing efforts to foster a thriving environment for all residents in the region. An official copy of the resolution will be prepared for the tribe as a token of appreciation.
