The resolution commemorates the victims of the catastrophic floods that struck the Texas Hill Country on July 4, 2025, resulting in the loss of over 135 lives, with a significant number of casualties occurring in Kerr County. The floods were triggered by multiple weather systems that caused the Guadalupe River to overflow rapidly, leaving residents with little time to evacuate. The aftermath saw extensive rescue efforts and a community response that highlighted both the tragedy and the resilience of those affected.

In recognition of the profound impact of this disaster, the resolution expresses the condolences of the Texas Legislature to the families and friends of the victims. It emphasizes the importance of honoring each life lost, particularly noting the heartbreaking loss of children and loved ones who were present during the floods. The resolution serves as a tribute to the memories of those who perished and acknowledges the collective mourning experienced by the community and the state.
