During each interim the council, as part of its duties relating to continuing statutory revision, prepares a general code update bill for introduction during the next regular legislative session. The purposes of the bill are to nonsubstantively codify laws that should be included in previously enacted codes, appropriately renumber duplicate official citations, correct enacted codes to conform the codes to the source law from which they were derived, and revise codes or parts of codes enacted during the preceding legislative session to incorporate enactments of that session.
Questions, comments, or suggestions relating to the project may be directed to Jessica Connaughton at PO Box 12128, Austin, Texas 78711, at telephone number (512) 463-1151, or by email at jessica.connaughton@tlc.texas.gov.
Information related to this project will be posted when it is available.
The general code update bill, House Bill 1620, passed in 2025 and took effect on September 1, 2025.
