H.R. No. 22 is a resolution recognizing and honoring the extraordinary efforts of first responders and volunteers who provided aid during the devastating flash floods that struck the Texas Hill Country in July 2025. The floods, which resulted from heavy rains on July 4, caused significant destruction, leading to the loss of over 135 lives and marking it as the sixth-deadliest freshwater flood in U.S. history. Local and regional first responders, including law enforcement and firefighters, bravely engaged in rescue operations, with notable contributions from the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service and various state and federal agencies, including the U.S. Coast Guard and FEMA.

The resolution also acknowledges the extensive support received from other states and international teams, which sent resources such as search and rescue personnel and K-9 units. Over 2,000 volunteers participated in relief efforts, assisting with rescues, debris removal, and the distribution of supplies. The Texas House of Representatives expresses profound gratitude for the selfless actions of all those involved in the relief efforts, emphasizing the importance of recognizing their courage and dedication in the face of such a tragic disaster.
