R E S O L U T I O N

WHEREAS, Trooper Day at the Texas Capitol is taking place on

May 19, 2025, providing a fitting opportunity to recognize the

who are divided into details that cover the complex; and

security patrol of the Capitol grounds, supervising and enforcing

traffic, administering parking, protecting visiting dignitaries,

monitoring surveillance cameras, and staffing the x-ray machines

and metal detectors at the Capitol's entrances; in addition, the

region's skilled and dedicated personnel investigate crimes,

conduct vulnerability assessments to mitigate risk, and deal with

crowd control during rallies and demonstrations on the Capitol

grounds; and

WHEREAS, For more than three decades, the officers of Region

VII of DPS have worked tirelessly to maintain law, order, and

civility in the Capitol Complex, allowing the state's legislators

and employees to safely and securely conduct the people's business;

now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas
