Bill > SB386

This bill proposes to add a new chapter to the Texas Government Code that explicitly limits the jurisdiction of three international organizations: the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations (UN), and the World Economic Forum (WEF). Specifically, the bill declares that these organizations have no legal jurisdiction within the state of Texas and prohibits any rules, fees, taxes, policies, or mandates from these organizations from being enforced or implemented by the state government or any of its political subdivisions. This means that even if these international organizations create guidelines, recommendations, or regulations, Texas would not be obligated to follow or enforce them. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, giving state agencies and local governments time to prepare for the new restrictions on international organizational influence.
