HCR 49 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

In memory of U.S. Army veteran Clarence Eugene Sasser of Sandy Point.

HCR 49 is a Texas legislative resolution honoring Clarence Eugene Sasser, a Vietnam War veteran and Medal of Honor recipient, for his service and sacrifice during military operations in 1968. The resolution, passed by both the Texas House and Senate and signed by the Governor, commemorates his heroic actions - where he treated wounded comrades under fire despite severe injuries - and recognizes his post-military contributions as a community leader and VA officer. It does not create new laws or affect any legal rights, but formally pays tribute to his legacy and extends condolences to his family.
