Paying tribute to the life and legacy of Selena Quintanilla Pérez on April 16, 2025, the 54th anniversary of her birth.
This is a commemorative resolution (not a bill with policy changes) adopted by the Texas House on March 6, 2025. It honors Selena Quintanilla Pérez, the Tejano music icon, by designating April 16, 2025 - the 54th anniversary of her birth - as a day to recognize her life and cultural impact. The resolution specifically acknowledges her musical achievements, entrepreneurial ventures, and community work, but contains no funding, regulations, or binding requirements. It serves solely as a symbolic tribute, consistent with standard legislative resolutions for cultural figures.
