AUSTIN, Texas — A resolution is currently circulating around the Texas state legislature urging Texans to stop using a certain flag emoji.

House Concurrent Resolution 75, "urging Texans not to use the flag emoji of the Republic of Chile when referring to the Texas flag," was introduced by Republican State Rep. Tom Oliverson from Cypress on Thursday.

"Most major electronic messaging applications provide a number of flag emojis, including that of the Republic of Chile, but the official flag of Texas, also known as the Lone Star Flag, is not included in the selection," Oliverson wrote in the resolution text.

"All too often," Oliverson wrote "the Chilean flag emoji is used as a substitute for the Lone Star Flag in text messaging and on social media platforms; the Chilean flag proudly represents its country but, despite its similarity to the Texas flag, it does not represent the State of Texas."
