    1-3        BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
    1-4        SECTION 1.  Article VI, Public Utility Regulatory Act

    1-6  adding Section 45A to read as follows:
    1-7        SECTION 45A.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
    1-8  Act, where the commission, for electric service, has approved the
    1-9  establishment of a separate rate class for a university and where
   1-10  the commission has grouped public schools in a separate rate class,
   1-11  then, the commission shall include any community college in the
   1-12  rate class containing public school customers.
   1-13        SECTION 2.  This Act takes effect September 1, 1995.
   1-14        SECTION 3.  The importance of this legislation and the
   1-15  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   1-16  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   1-17  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   1-18  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended.
