HB 1004 grants the Texas Attorney General authority to prosecute certain criminal offenses, including those under the Election Code and specific chapters of the Penal Code and Health and Safety Code, if local prosecutors fail to act within six months of receiving probable cause reports from law enforcement. It requires local authorities to share reports with the Attorney General to facilitate prosecution and aims to address gaps in enforcement.
