Bill Analysis
        SB 241 would update reporting requirements for state agencies and other governmental units by repealing obsolete reports, modifying certain reports, and removing recipients who no longer need to receive certain reports.    
    
        
        
Vote Recommendation Notes
        Texas Action supports SB 241 because it promotes our principle of limited government by shrinking the reporting requirements of agencies and eliminating obsolete requirements and redundancies. This bill would save valuable state resources while also allowing agencies to focus on priorities.
