Everything Texas Policy Research publishes on the 90th Texas Legislature in one place: commentary, Legislative Spotlights, bill digests, and a vote recommendation on every bill that reaches the House or Senate floor.
Latest from the 90th
Bill Digests
A plain-language digest of every bill and joint or concurrent resolution filed from the start of prefiling through the filing deadline. Our searchable 90th Session digests launch shortly. Subscribe and we’ll let you know when they’re live.
Floor Reports
When a bill is placed on a House or Senate calendar, we publish a Floor Report and a vote recommendation before it comes up for a vote, and we update it if the bill changes on its way through the opposite chamber. Every bill on a calendar is covered except those on the House Local & Consent Calendar and the Senate Local & Uncontested Calendar. Each recommendation reflects the most recent version of the bill.
