HR 87 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Commemorating the opening of the Rabbi Samuel Karff Memorial Bridge in Houston.

This resolution commemorates the opening of the Rabbi Samuel Karff Memorial Bridge in Houston, named after a late rabbi who promoted civil rights and community unity at Texas' oldest Jewish congregation. The bridge, a $3 million pedestrian and cyclist crossing over Brays Bayou Greenway, connects neighborhoods and parks maintained by the Houston Parks Board. The Texas House passed this non-binding resolution on April 9, 2025, to honor Rabbi Karff's legacy of fostering equality and social justice. It does not create new laws or affect policy, as it is a ceremonial tribute.
