In memory of former state representative James Parker McCollough of Austin.
HR 310 is a commemorative resolution honoring former Texas State Representative James Parker McCollough of Austin, who died on October 31, 2024. The resolution recognizes his service in the Texas House from 1988-1992, his roles as chair of the Criminal Jurisprudence Committee, and his community work as a public defender, judge, and volunteer. It extends sympathy to his family - including his wife, children, grandchildren, and sisters - and commemorates his commitment to sobriety, family, and public service. As a procedural memorial resolution (not a policy bill), it has no legislative effect beyond paying tribute.
