Enrolled Bill Summary

Senate Bill 335	Senate Author:  Schwertner
Effective:  Vetoed	House Sponsor:  Hull

            Senate Bill 335 amends the Human Resources Code to require that an open meeting of the Family and Protective Services Council be broadcast live over the Internet on the Department of Family and Protective Services website or that archived video and audio of the meeting be made available on that website for a period of two years beginning not later than the end of the second business day after the day the meeting is held.

Governor's Reason for Veto: "While Senate Bill No. 335 is important, it is simply not as important as cutting property taxes. At this time, the legislature must concentrate on delivering property tax cuts to Texans. This bill can be reconsidered at a future special session only after property tax relief is passed."
