CRIMINAL JUSTICE IMPACT STATEMENT

87TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 20, 2021

TO:
Honorable James White, Chair, House Committee on Homeland Security & Public Safety
 
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB3407 by Raymond (Relating to a requirement that the Texas Division of Emergency Management maintain climate-controlled warehouses to store personal protective equipment for rapid delivery in a disaster.), As Introduced

The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would amend the Government Code as it relates to a requirement that the Texas Division of Emergency Management maintain climate-controlled warehouses to store personal protective equipment for rapid delivery in a disaster.  Under the provisions of the bill, the Texas Division of Emergency Management would be required to maintain climate-controlled warehouses for storage of personal protective equipment.

This analysis assumes implementing 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.
