Recognizing Children's Emergency Relief International on the occasion of its ribbon-cutting ceremony and dedication of the George M. Cowden Building.

It formally recognizes Children's Emergency Relief International (CERI) for dedicating its new Austin headquarters as the "George M. Cowden Building" on August 15, 2025.

MINOR

The document changed from a draft Senate Resolution (S.R.A No. A54) to an enrolled version (SR 54) with significant formatting cleanup and session corrections. The substantive content remains the same: a Senate resolution commending Children's Emergency Relief International and dedicating the George M. Cowden Building. The main changes are technical: removing draft markers, fixing spacing issues, and correcting the legislative session from '1st Called Session' to '2nd Called Session' in the final version.
