Bill > HR1249

This resolution recognizes Jaime Macias, the owner of Jaime's Place, a bar and restaurant located in San Antonio's historic West Side, for his entrepreneurial spirit and community contributions. Opened in October 2020, the establishment is a family-run business where Macias's wife and four children have played key roles in its operations and success. Despite challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Jaime's Place gained widespread attention for its community-affirming message "Unbow your heads, 78207," which celebrates the neighborhood's Mexican American heritage, and has been featured in national media like Time magazine and a Food Network web series. The resolution, passed by the 89th Texas Legislature, formally recognizes Macias's creativity, resilience, and hard work in creating a treasured community institution, and officially extends best wishes for his continued success, with an official copy of the resolution to be prepared as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
