Relating to efficiency audits of Operation Lone Star and other border security programs.

Texas Senate Bill 930 requires biennial efficiency audits of Operation Lone Star and other Texas border security programs, beginning in 2024. The bill mandates an external auditor (selected by the comptroller by March 1 each audit year) to examine how state funds are spent, whether resources achieve border security goals, and identify potential cost savings. The auditor must complete the audit within 90 days and submit a public report by November 1 to the governor, legislature, and state agencies. The audits will be conducted using existing state resources, with no new funding required.
