Relating to the creation of a task force to evaluate the housing needs of senior citizens who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning.

SB 1765 creates a 10-member task force to evaluate housing needs for senior citizens who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or questioning (LGBTQ+ seniors) in Texas. The task force will assess housing challenges, including transitions to long-term care facilities, and develop solutions to provide safe, affordable housing options. It requires specific appointments: a House LGBTQ+ caucus chair as presiding officer, plus members appointed by the governor, lieutenant governor, and House speaker with expertise in LGBTQ+ aging, senior housing, and public safety. The task force must submit a final report with recommendations to state leaders by September 1, 2026. This bill does not enact direct policy changes but establishes a process to inform future housing solutions for this community.
