As of May 7, members of the Texas State Legislature, which includes the Texas House of Representatives and the Texas State Senate, have passed one bill related to election administration since the beginning of the year. A bipartisan group of legislators sponsored the bill. The bill is:
-
TX SB1052: Relating to the compensation of an election judge or clerk, Sen. Drew Springer (R) and Reps. John Bucy (D), Jessica Gonzalez (D), Christian Hayes (D), Briscoe Cain (R), and Reggie Smith (R).
- As introduced, this bill prohibits a judge or clerk from being paid for more than two hours of work before the polls open except for making changes to the list of registered voters at another polling place.
The bill has not yet been enacted.
