Bill > HB4181

This bill proposes to completely repeal Chapter 2060 of the Texas Government Code, which would effectively abolish the Interagency Data Transparency Commission. By removing the entire chapter from the legal code, the bill eliminates the commission and any associated statutory provisions, responsibilities, or organizational structure. The bill includes a standard legislative provision specifying that it will take effect immediately if it receives a two-thirds vote in both legislative chambers, as permitted by the Texas Constitution. If it does not receive the required supermajority vote, the bill will automatically go into effect on September 1, 2025. While the provided text does not detail the specific reasons for abolishing the commission, the bill suggests that the Interagency Data Transparency Commission is no longer considered necessary or effective in its current form.
