Relating to requiring an election judge to provide a watcher removed from a polling place a signed statement containing the reason for the removal.

HB 2803 requires election judges in Texas to provide a signed written statement explaining the reason when removing an election watcher from a polling place after the watcher has been officially accepted. The bill directly affects election judges, who must issue this statement, and election watchers, who receive the written justification for their removal. Key provisions mandate that the statement be provided at the time of removal, ensuring transparency in the process. The law takes effect on September 1, 2025, and applies to all polling places statewide.
