Relating to limiting the number of sessions in which a member may serve as Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives.

HB 1758 limits how long a member can serve as Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives by prohibiting candidates who have already served two complete regular sessions as Speaker from filing a declaration of candidacy with the Texas Ethics Commission. This bill directly affects potential Speaker candidates who have held the position for two full legislative terms. The key provision amends Texas Government Code Section 302.0121 to add subsection (f), which blocks such candidates from running. The law takes effect September 1, 2025. This is a procedural change affecting leadership eligibility, not a substantive policy.
