Digest
HB 1743, known as the Protect Texas Land Act, restricts certain foreign individuals and entities from holding or acquiring interests in agricultural land or other real property in Texas. It requires such persons to report property holdings or transactions to the attorney general and establishes penalties for noncompliance. The bill also creates an Agricultural Intelligence Office to monitor and enforce these provisions, including the forced sale of properties held in violation. These restrictions aim to protect Texas land from foreign control, with compliance deadlines for existing holdings
