Digest
HB 348 amends the Texas Government Code to require the comptroller of public accounts to establish and maintain a publicly accessible database of state expenditures, named the "Texas Checkbook." This website will be distinct from the main comptroller website and will include detailed information on state spending, such as the amount, date, payor, and payee of expenditures. Additionally, the database will categorize expenses by object, class, and item levels when such information is reportable. The bill mandates that state agencies link to the Texas Checkbook on their homepage.
