Commemorating the 160th anniversary of the first Juneteenth celebration and extending best wishes to the people of Galveston as they observe the holiday.
This resolution commemorates the 160th anniversary of Juneteenth's first celebration in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, when General Order No. 3 declared enslaved people in Texas free. It extends best wishes to Galveston residents as they observe the holiday, acknowledging the city's historical role as the birthplace of Juneteenth. The resolution is purely ceremonial, with no new laws or policy changes, and follows Texas making Juneteenth a state holiday in 1979 and a federal holiday in 2021.
