I don’t have live access to the latest feeds right now. Here’s a quick, practical update based on the most recent publicly available summaries I can reference:
-
Texas House Bill HB626 (2025-2026, 89th Legislature) has been discussed in committee cycles with actions including public hearings, committee reports, and calendar positioning in the Texas House as of spring 2025. It appears to be active in the legislative process and has undergone several standard steps like readings, referrals, and committee considerations [HB626 tracking and summaries from multiple sources show these steps occurring in March–April 2025 and notes on the sponsor and bill status] [sources: legislative tracking pages and committee analyses].
-
The bill is listed with a primary sponsor and a history of actions (readings, referrals to committees such as Homeland Security, Public Safety & Veterans' Affairs, and calendar placement) through early to mid-2025, indicating ongoing consideration rather than final passage during that period [HB626 entries and Texas Capitol summaries].
-
If you’re tracking the latest status, you’ll want to verify:
- Whether HB626 advanced to a floor vote or was referred to a conference committee, and any amendments that were added.
- The latest fiscal or policy impact analyses, including any fiscal notes or author amendments.
- Any companion Senate bill movements (e.g., SB626) and their progress, since parallel tracks can influence outcomes.
Would you like me to:
- Look up the most current status and provide a concise update with the latest committee actions, floor votes, and any recent amendments, or
- Pull a quick side-by-side of HB626 vs. SB626 (if both exist) to show differences in scope and status?
