IN RE: | HB3138 by Bowers (Relating to reporting of incidents of sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking on state property.), As Introduced |
The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Government Code to require the Texas Department of Public Safety to develop an online reporting system through which a person may report incidents of sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking on state property.
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.
