Here's how to monitor key bills as they move through the state Legislature. Track their progress to the governor’s desk or to oblivion.
Every piece of state legislation – from the lowliest sales-tax extension to the most sweeping expansion of civil rights – goes through the same process of committee hearings, votes by the House and Senate, and ratification by the governor. But most of them never make it through, and months of hurry up and wait usually ends with a dizzying rush. The San Antonio Express-News politics team in Austin has identified some of the most relevant bills at the forefront of the 2023 legislative session.
