Summary:
Honoring Jocelyn Nungaray: A National Wildlife Refuge Renamed in Her Memory
A new executive order has officially renamed the Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge in Texas to the Jocelyn Nungaray National Wildlife Refuge, in memory of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, who was tragically killed in Houston, Texas, in June 2024. Jocelyn, known for her kindness and love for animals, was murdered, and two Venezuelan nationals—allegedly linked to the Tren de Aragua gang—have been charged in connection with her death. The suspects had been apprehended at the U.S. border earlier in 2024 and later released. The executive order directs the Department of the Interior to complete the renaming process within 30 days, ensuring that all federal references, maps, and documents reflect the new name. The wildlife refuge, a well-known coastal conservation area, will now serve as a lasting memorial to Jocelyn.
The Takeaway
This move permanently ties Jocelyn’s memory to a place of natural beauty, ensuring she is remembered. It also comes amid broader debates about border policies and public safety, highlighting the ongoing discussion about immigration enforcement and its impact on communities.
