AI Summary

This bill amends the Civil Practice and Remedies Code and the Property Code to prohibit certain foreign individuals and entities, particularly those from countries identified as posing a national security risk to the United States, from purchasing or acquiring title to real property in Texas if such acquisition would create a risk to the health, safety, and welfare of the public.
