Calling for construction of a monument in the Texas State Cemetery in remembrance of those who perished in the July 4, 2025, Hill Country flood.
HCR 9 is a commemorative resolution calling for a monument in the Texas State Cemetery to honor the over 100 people who died in the July 4, 2025, Hill Country flood. It specifically recognizes the tragedy at Camp Mystic (including children as young as eight) and the flood's causes, such as extreme rainfall overwhelming drought-parched terrain. The resolution directs the Texas secretary of state to forward copies to the Texas State Cemetery Committee and State Preservation Board but does not allocate funds or create binding requirements. This is a non-binding memorial gesture, not a policy change affecting legislation or government operations.
