Amend CSHB 2292 on page 123 by inserting the following between
lines 8 and 9:
(e) The rules adopted by the department under this section
must provide that it is an affirmative defense to the imposition of
sanctions or penalties that a person's failure to cooperate with
the requirements of the responsibility agreement resulted from the
failure of the department, the Texas Workforce Commission, or a
local workforce development board to perform a duty. Sanctions or
penalties may not be imposed on a person until the department
determines that the department, the Texas Workforce Commission, and
the local workforce development board, as applicable, have complied
with their respective performance measures.
