Bill Summary · SR 31

Legislative bill overview

SR 31 is a commemorative resolution honoring Charles Glen Patton of New Boston, Texas, who has apparently passed away or is being recognized for significant contributions. Senate resolutions of this type are ceremonial measures that express the legislature's recognition and respect for an individual or group.

Why is this important

While ceremonial in nature, such resolutions serve as official public recognition by the state legislature and become part of the legislative record. For the Patton family and community, this represents formal acknowledgment of the individual's life and impact on New Boston and Texas.

Potential points of contention

  • No substantive policy impact - This is purely ceremonial and does not establish law or allocate resources
  • Limited public information - The resolution text is not provided, so specific details about why Patton was honored remain unclear
  • Routine legislative time - Some argue commemorative resolutions consume legislative session time that could address policy matters
