The Senate passed a resolution to honor George Foreman, the legendary boxer and businessman who died in March 2025. The measure was led by Cornyn and Cruz to celebrate Foreman's roots in Houston and his impact on the world.
The resolution lists Foreman's many sports achievements, such as winning an Olympic gold medal in 1968 and becoming the oldest heavyweight champion in history at age 45. It also recognizes his famous "Rumble in the Jungle" match against Muhammad Ali.
The document also highlights Foreman's life outside the ring, including his work as a minister and his dedication to helping kids at his youth center in Houston. It also mentions his business success with the George Foreman Grill, which sold more than 100 million units worldwide.
