HRES 782 United States House · 119th Congress

Expressing condolences and support for the victims of the July 4 flooding in Texas, honoring acts of heroism, and committing to stand with those impacted by these floods.

HRES 782 is a non-binding House resolution expressing condolences to victims of the July 4, 2025, catastrophic floods in Texas, which caused at least 135 deaths (including 37 children) and widespread destruction. It honors first responders who rescued over 850 people and community heroes like camp staff who saved children, while committing the House to stand with affected Texans. The resolution does not create new laws or allocate funds - it formally mourns the loss of life, recognizes acts of courage, and urges prioritization of rebuilding infrastructure and support for vulnerable residents. This symbolic gesture was introduced by multiple Texas representatives and referred to the Transportation Committee.
