 opportunity to honor this noteworthy program as it celebrates its 

  

 79th anniversary; and

  

        WHEREAS, Each year, the YMCA and its extensive programs 

  

 benefit more than one million Texans of all ages and abilities; in

 the YMCA's after-school enrichment programs, summer camps, 

  

 developmental sports programming, teen centers, and overnight 

  

 camps; and

 and judges in appellate court cases, as members of the news media, 

  

 and as lobbyists; and

  

        WHEREAS, YMCA Texas Youth and Government has helped shape 

  

 generations of leaders in the Lone Star State, and the 

  

 organization's invaluable contributions are indeed worthy of 

  

 recognition on this special occasion; now, therefore, be it

  

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

  

 Legislature hereby recognize February 27, 2025, as YMCA Texas Youth
