HB 324 amends the Texas Penal Code to expand the conditions under which sexual assault is considered non-consensual. Key changes include broadening the definition to cover instances where the actor should reasonably know the other person has not provided verbal or affirmative consent or has withdrawn consent. It also adds specific conditions such as intoxication rendering a person incapable of consent and instances where a mental health or healthcare provider exploits their position by creating a false impression of law or fact.
