HB 178 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 1st Called Session (2025)

Relating to the repeal of the Texas Jobs, Energy, Technology, and Innovation Act.

HB 178 repeals the Texas Jobs, Energy, Technology, and Innovation Act, which was enacted in 2023. This law allowed school districts to apply specific limitations on taxable property values for school funding calculations. The bill removes these limitations by repealing the relevant section of the Government Code (Subchapter T, Chapter 403) that was added by the repealed act. As a result, school districts in Texas will no longer have access to these property value restrictions when determining their taxable valuation for state funding purposes.
