HB 347 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the prosecution of the offense of invasive visual recording in a lactation room.

HB 347 would make it a criminal offense to secretly record individuals in lactation rooms without their consent. The bill defines "invasive visual recording" in these designated private spaces as a prosecutable act, specifically targeting unauthorized video or photo recording. It directly affects individuals who engage in such recordings and provides legal protection for people using lactation rooms, which are typically provided for nursing mothers. This law would establish clear penalties for violations and streamline prosecution under criminal law.
