Bill Summary · SR 397

Legislative bill overview

SR 397 is a memorial resolution honoring Peggy Ann Koski of Leander, Texas, who has passed away. The bill was introduced by state senators Bryan Hughes and Charles Schwertner and was adopted by the Texas Senate on April 14, 2025.

Why is this important

Memorial resolutions serve as official legislative recognition of deceased individuals who made contributions to their communities or held significance to their state representatives. While non-binding and largely ceremonial, they create a formal public record honoring the person's memory and may be presented to their family.

Potential points of contention

  • Memorial resolutions consume legislative time and floor resources, though typically minimal compared to substantive bills
  • No public information provided about Koski's background, accomplishments, or community involvement that would justify legislative commemoration
  • The bill provides no details about her life or achievements, making it impossible to assess whether the honor was warranted or politically motivated
