SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 212
	WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to
	recognize the people of Israel and supporters of Israel from
	throughout Texas, Israel, and the United States on the occasion
	of the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast, which is taking place in
	Houston on February 24, 2023, and to join in celebrating 2023 as
	the 75th anniversary of Israel's independence; and
	WHEREAS, The Lone Star State has always been a steadfast
	supporter of the historic alliance between Israel and the United
	States, and Texas has long enjoyed a cordial and mutually
	beneficial relationship with Israel and her people; and
	WHEREAS, The Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast in Houston is an
	opportunity for the broad expanse of Texas-based organizations
	dedicated to the support of Israel to gather and to join with
	citizens and public leaders in uplifting Israel in prayer and in
	celebrating the 75th anniversary of Israel's independence; and
	WHEREAS, Taking part in this special occasion are a number
	of exemplary Texas-based groups unified in their recognition and
	committed support of Israel, including such organizations as
	America for Israel and the Texas-Israel Alliance; the efforts of
	these groups and of such entities as the Israeli Consulate
	General of the Southwest in Houston have continued to strengthen
	the close ties between Israel and Texas, and it is indeed fitting
	that this important connection be celebrated and honored; now,
	therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
	Legislature, hereby commend the organizers, supporters, and
	attendees of the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast on their invaluable
	contributions to the shared bond between Texas and Israel and
	extend to all associated with the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast best
	wishes for a fruitful and rewarding gathering; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared in
	honor of this special event as an expression of esteem from the
	Texas Senate.
