HCR 60 requests that the Lieutenant Governor and the Speaker of the House establish a joint interim study on domestic violence. The resolution highlights statistics from 2023, noting that nearly 248,000 domestic violence incidents were reported in Texas, and 179 women were killed by an intimate partner, along with 16 others, including 4 children. The study would explore the psychological, economic, and societal effects of domestic violence and provide policy recommendations. A full report, including findings and legislative recommendations, is to be submitted before the 90th Texas Legislature convenes in January 2027.
