Enrolled Bill Summary

Legislative Session: 86(R)

House Bill 1404

House Author:  Dean

Effective:  Vetoed

Senate Sponsor:  Hughes


            House Bill 1404 amends the Local Government Code to authorize the commissioners court of Upshur County to regulate game rooms.

Governor's Reason for Veto: "I have signed House Bill 892, which gives all counties statewide the authority to regulate game rooms by removing all local bracket provisions from the relevant statute. House Bill 1404 attempts to amend the provisions already repealed by House Bill 892. As such, House Bill 1404 is unnecessary and I am vetoing it at the request of the author."
