HCR 38 proposes to eliminate the current observance of Confederate Heroes Day on January 19 and replace it with Confederate Freedom Day. The new holiday would commemorate the values of liberty and equality and symbolize the state's commitment to opposing institutional racism and discrimination. The resolution seeks to shift the focus from honoring individuals associated with the Confederacy to uniting Texans in a broader effort to address historical and systemic injustices.
