The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Government Code as it relates to certain contract and notice requirements applicable to certain facilities used to house incarcerated individuals or releases from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ).  Under the provisions of the bill, TDCJ would be prohibited from entering into certain types of housing contracts with facilities lacking proof of specific compliances, and would further be required to maintain and submit records related to alternative housing. 

This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on the demand for state correctional resources. The bill does not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision.
