The 89th Texas Legislative Session concludes Monday. Explore some of the legislation ABC13 has covered this session:
School vouchers
Governor Greg Abbott signed Senate Bill 2 into law early last month. It allows some Texas families to use public dollars for private school tuition.
THC
Senate Bill 3 landed on Abbott's desk early last week. If Abbott does not veto the legislation, it will ban THC in Texas. THC is an $8 billion industry in the state.
Abortion
Senate Bill 31, also known as the "Life of the Mother Act," is on Abbott's desk. The legislation aims to clarify when doctors can perform a medically necessary abortion.
Local toll road funding
Senate Bill 2722, proposed by Houston-based State Senator Paul Bettencourt, sought to divert 30% of surplus Harris County Toll Road Authority from Harris County to the City of Houston. The bill effectively died after missing a key deadline.
Waller County amusement park
Bellville-based Representative Stan Kitzman withdrew House Bill 5685, citing the concerns of Waller County residents. If passed, the bill would have enabled an improvement district - paving the way for "TexasLand USA," a Texas-themed amusement park in the county.
