IN RE:
SB667 by West (Relating to establishing a state historical marker program to honor African Americans who served in the Texas Legislature during Reconstruction.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend the Government Code to require the Texas Historical Commission (THC) to establish and administer a state historical marker program to honor African Americans who served in the Texas Legislature between 1870 and 1875, during the 12th, 13th, or 14th Legislative Session.
This analysis assumes costs associated with implementation of the bill's provisions could be absorbed within existing resources.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
