John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB453 by Villarreal (Relating to a pilot program for early childhood teacher education and retention.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend Section 302.0055 of the Labor Code to require the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) to change the name of the T.E.A.C.H. Pilot Program which shall continue to assist teachers in retaining employment in the field of child care. Although documents would need to be changed to reflect a new name for the existing program, TWC indicates this could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
