A house RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE 
SOUTH CAROLINA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES UPON THE PASSING OF CONGRESSMAN RAÚL M. 
GRIJALVA OF ARIZONA AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY 
FRIENDS.

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina House of Representatives were saddened to learn of the death 
of Congressman Raúl M. Grijalva of Arizona at the age of 77 on March 13, 2025; 
and

Whereas, the people of 
Arizona and the United States mourn the passing of Congressman Raúl M. 
Grijalva, a dedicated public servant who devoted his life to advocating for 
justice, environmental protection, and the well-being of marginalized 
communities; and

Whereas, Congressman 
Grijalva began his lifelong career of service on the Pima County Board of 
Supervisors, where he championed the landmark Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan, 
protecting the fragile Sonoran Desert ecosystem from overdevelopment and 
establishing a model for sustainable land use and endangered species protection 
across the nation; and

Whereas, upon his 
election to the United States Congress in 2002, Congressman Grijalva joined the 
House Natural Resources Committee and quickly emerged as one of the most 
passionate and effective advocates for endangered species, public lands, and 
environmental justice; and

Whereas, as chair of 
the House Natural Resources Committee, Congressman Grijalva led groundbreaking 
initiatives that advanced environmental protections and climate action, 
including securing permanent authorization of the Land and Water Conservation 
Fund through the Great American Outdoors Act and passing historic ocean and 
climate legislation such as the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure 
Investment and Jobs Act; and

Whereas, Congressman 
Grijalva was a fierce and unwavering champion of environmental justice, co-authoring 
and passing the Environmental Justice for All Act through the House Natural 
Resources Committee, ensuring that vulnerable communities disproportionately 
affected by pollution and environmental degradation had a voice in shaping 
policies that impacted their lives; and

Whereas, his leadership 
extended to defending tribal sovereignty, advocating for the protection of 
sacred Native American lands such as Oak Flat and holding the first 
congressional hearings on critical issues in Indian Country, including missing 
and murdered indigenous women, Indian boarding schools, and tribal co-management 
of public lands; and

Whereas, Congressman 
Grijalva's unwavering commitment to justice was evident in his advocacy for 
immigrant families, affordable healthcare, protections for workers exposed to 
extreme heat, and fairness for Dreamers, ensuring that vulnerable communities 
received the dignity and support they deserve; and

Whereas, throughout his 
twenty-two years in Congress, Congressman Grijalva fought for transformational 
improvements in this country, securing funding for public parks, childcare 
centers, healthcare clinics, and infrastructure improvements that have strengthened 
communities from his home district in Tucson to locales far beyond; and

Whereas, Congressman 
Grijalva's vision extended beyond his tenure, and his humility, kindness, and 
deep love for the people he served endeared him to colleagues, constituents, 
and communities across the nation. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House 
of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, express 
their profound sorrow upon the passing of Congressman Raúl M. Grijalva of 
Arizona and extend the deepest sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution 
be presented to the family of Congressman Raúl M. Grijalva.
