Relating to the efficient operations of agencies in the legislative branch of state government and the repeal of certain obsolete provisions involving those agencies.
This bill (SB 2212) streamlines operations for Texas legislative agencies by updating definitions and processes. It requires the Texas Legislative Council to prioritize drafting proposed legislation during legislative sessions and conduct a study on improving how statutory codes are updated after sessions, with a report due to the 90th Legislature. The bill also clarifies that "state agency" includes most government entities but excludes legislative offices, and mandates that state agencies submit three paper and one electronic copy of publications to the Legislative Reference Library. These changes aim to modernize legislative support functions without creating new programs.
