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.
