CA ACR228California Assembly Concurrent Resolution 228 (ACR 228) proposes naming a section of State Route 80 in Solano County as the "Parole Agent Joshua L. Byrd Memorial Highway." This designation honors Parole Agent Joshua Byrd, who was tragically killed in the line of duty on July 17, 2025. The resolution requests the Department of Transportation to determine the cost of appropriate signage for this memorial and, upon receiving sufficient donations from nonstate sources, to erect those signs.
