	H.R. No. 445



	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The Bahá'í Faith, a worldwide religion that
	originated in the mid-19th century, is dedicated to promoting the
	principles of unity, peace, and justice, while emphasizing the
	oneness of humanity and the equal worth of all people; and
	WHEREAS, This religious group has been an integral part of
	Texas for many decades, and its adherents have greatly enriched our
	state through their acts of service and interfaith collaboration
	and through their support for initiatives that promote education,
	community development, and racial harmony; and
	WHEREAS, Across Texas, Bahá'ís uphold their faith's core
	teachings of love, service, and the independent investigation of
	truth, and they strive to foster understanding and cooperation
	among people from all walks of life; and
	WHEREAS, The observance of Bahá'í Day provides an opportunity
	for all Texans to recognize and appreciate the positive difference
	that the Bahá'í community has made in our state, as well as to
	reflect on the universal values of peace, justice, and social
	progress that are the foundation of the religion; and
	WHEREAS, The Bahá'í Faith has inspired countless followers to
	become agents of change for the good of all humankind, and through
	the celebration of Bahá'í Day at the State Capitol, we are affirming
	our state's commitment to diversity, inclusivity, and the shared
	pursuit of a more just and unified society; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize April 29, 2025, as Bahá'í Day at the
	State Capitol and encourage all Texans to join in honoring the
	contributions of the Bahá'í community to our great state.
