Bills: HB1347, HB2091, HB2264
Summary: The committee heard and took action on several labor, licensing, and workplace bills. House Bill 1347 on cannabis testing labs drew testimony from the sponsor, industry representatives, and LCB/WSDA-related stakeholders. Supporters said the bill would reduce duplication by having LCB rely on WSDA accreditation for initial lab certification, while some witnesses said the bill still needed amendment language to clearly assign authority and avoid overlapping oversight. No vote was taken on HB 1347 during the portion provided, but the sponsor committed to work on clarifying amendments with agencies and stakeholders. The committee then heard House Bill 2229 on the Professional Engineers Registration Act, House Bill 2091 on providing employee information to exclusive bargaining representatives under the Personnel System Reform Act, and House Bill 2264 on unemployment insurance for workers in employer-initiated layoffs or reductions in force. Testimony on HB 2229 focused on board membership changes, pro tem appointments, and updating licensing rules; the bill’s sponsor and the Engineers Board said it modernizes qualifications without changing licensure standards. HB 2091 drew support from labor groups and opposition from Washington Policy Center, with supporters saying it simply aligns state agencies with existing disclosure rules and opponents raising privacy concerns. HB 2264 was supported as a clarification that workers who opt into a layoff or separation program should still qualify for unemployment benefits; one testifier described being denied benefits despite participating in a company reduction-in-force program in good faith. In executive action, the committee voted do pass on Substitute House Bills 2492, 2107, 2151, 2355, and Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2471, and sent them onward, with HB 2105 sent to Ways and Means. Members discussed concerns about private rights of action in HB 2355 and about notice timing and enforcement in HB 2105, but the majority supported the bills. The committee also heard and advanced Substitute House Bill 2472 on fire sprinkler work, with supporters saying local fire officials need clearer enforcement tools and proof-of-licensure authority. Finally, Second Substitute House Bill 2345 on paid leave contributions was presented as a technical fix to align the state paid family and medical leave program with IRS guidance; labor and employer witnesses supported it as a way to avoid higher tax liability and more costly implementation. The longest public hearing was on Second Substitute House Bill 1128, which would create a Child Care Workforce Standards Board to make recommendations on child care worker staffing, retention, and compensation. Child care workers and parents testified in support, citing burnout, low pay, and staffing shortages, while many providers and industry groups opposed it as duplicative of existing workgroups and costly without direct funding for wage increases or higher subsidy rates.

Summary: The Senate Education Committee met with four members present and took up a long agenda of education-related bills. Early items included SCR 65, which would create a K-12 student success task force to study statewide career and academic pathway advising; the committee adopted a substantive amendment adding designees and then reported the resolution favorably. The committee also reported favorably on SCR 119, honoring Coach D.D. Breaux, after brief remarks about her LSU gymnastics legacy and the request that LSU study naming its gymnastics training facility in her honor. Several bills affecting school operations and student support were heard and reported favorably, including HB 434 on probationary school bus driver employment and superintendent authority over dismissal; HB 484 expanding scholarship benefits for children and spouses of fallen or disabled firefighters and police officers; HB 749 and HB 1059 on savings accounts and TOPS math eligibility alignment; HB 218 adding food insecurity questions to student questionnaires, which was amended and reported favorably; HB 325 expanding TOPS Tech eligibility through dual enrollment and part-time use; HB 476 requiring Safe Haven law postings in middle and high school restrooms; HB 1249 clarifying access to school-based health centers, with an amendment adopted; HB 1242 allowing more than one early learning center license at the same location under certain circumstances; HB 632 improving data protections and functionality for LA First; and HB 352 on behavioral health services for public school students, which was amended to address IEP and dispute-process concerns before being reported favorably. Two bills drew extended debate over transparency, privacy, and school autonomy. HB 608 would create confidentiality for intercollegiate athletics revenue-sharing documents; LSU representatives argued the bill was needed to protect student-athletes and competitive information, while PAR and the Louisiana Press Association opposed it as an improper secrecy carve-out for state-generated revenue. Despite the opposition, the committee reported HB 608 favorably. HB 1112, which would exempt BESE-approved non-public pre-K programs from certain licensure and safety requirements and adjust related definitions, was amended and then heard with testimony from the Pelican Institute in support, arguing it corrects overreach from prior law and protects private school autonomy and parental choice.

Summary: The Senate Economic Development Committee met without a quorum, so no votes or formal actions were taken. The chair laid out several bills and resolutions for explanation and public testimony, with each item left pending subject to the call of the chair. Early items included House Bill 1240, a cleanup measure to create a single uniform definition of the Texas-Mexico border region across state law, and House Bill 2768, which would establish an IT apprenticeship credential through junior colleges and technical institutions to help fill state government technology jobs. The committee also heard House Concurrent Resolution 90, which would encourage establishing a Texas trade and investment office in Jerusalem. Testimony on the resolution was sharply divided: one witness opposed it on foreign policy and values grounds, while a Texas Association of Business representative strongly supported it, citing Israel’s innovation and trade potential. Another major item was House Bill 4187, a committee substitute for legislation affecting the Texas Historical Commission; the sponsor described changes expanding use of trust fund money for historic sites, allowing more affiliated nonprofits, clarifying retail operations, and creating a framework for training and consistent interpretation at historic sites. A Texas Historical Commission witness explained that the bill would shift responsibility for maintaining many state-owned historical markers and monuments, including markers on private land, to the commission. Additional measures included House Bill 2788, which would shield Texas Workforce Commission fraud-prevention methods from public information requests; House Bill 5032, directing state agencies to plan for public display of the Texas Declaration of Independence, Texas Constitution, and the Victory or Death letter at the Capitol Complex; House Bill 3146, which would eliminate outdated memoranda-of-understanding requirements for certain State Office of Administrative Hearings arrangements; and House Bill 4815, a cleanup bill modernizing economic development statutes, revising the Made in Texas standard to 51% Texas-origin content, repealing the Governor’s Broadband Development Council, and making other conforming changes. The committee ended by recessing, with members indicating they would likely vote on pending business later when a quorum was available.
