The resolution addresses the devastating flooding that occurred in the Hill Country of Texas on July 4, 2025, which resulted in the tragic loss of over 100 lives. This catastrophic event was one of the deadliest natural disasters in Texas history, caused by a combination of summer humidity and tropical moisture from distant storms, leading to an unprecedented 12 inches of rain in a short period. The steep terrain and dry conditions exacerbated the situation, causing the Guadalupe River to rise rapidly and catch many individuals, including children at a nearby camp, off guard. The resolution expresses the collective grief felt by Texans and the nation as a whole in the aftermath of this tragedy.

In response to the immense loss, the resolution calls for the construction of a monument in the Texas State Cemetery to honor the victims of the Hill Country flood. It emphasizes the importance of remembering those who perished and acknowledges the sorrow of the survivors and the broader community. The resolution also directs the Texas Secretary of State to send official copies to relevant committees to facilitate the establishment of the memorial.
