Leach
REPRESENTATIVE LEACH: Members, these bills have been prepared by the Texas Legislative Council pursuant to its legislative mandate to continually revise the statutory law of this state. Each bill is a non-substantive revision of Texas law, and the substance of the law has not been altered.
The sole purpose of these revisions is to compile the relevant law, arrange it in a logical fashion, and rewrite it without altering its meaning or legal effect.
By ordering these bills not printed, this means that you will not have the text of the bill in front of you when you vote. This indicates the house's judgment that our legislative council completed this revision in compliance with the mandate that we have given them, that the bill's changes to the law are in fact non-substantive, and there is no need to consult text that is not changing the law during floor consideration of these bills.
The motion in writing was read and prevailed by (Record 712): 114 Yeas, 28 Nays, 2 Present, not voting.

HR 431 - PREVIOUSLY ADOPTED
(by Walle)
The chair laid out the following previously adopted resolution:
HR 431, In memory of Deputy Fernando Esqueda of the Harris County Sheriff's Office.
INTRODUCTION OF GUESTS
The chair recognized Representative Walle who introduced family members of Deputy Fernando Esqueda, speaking as follows:
Members, I want you to please help me in remembering and honoring a very proud young man, Deputy Fernando Esqueda. I'm going to repeat: Deputy Fernando Esqueda. Deputy Fernando Esqueda of the Harris County Sheriff's Office was murdered in the line of duty on July the 11th, 2024, at the very young age of 28. Deputy Esqueda dedicated his life to public service from a young age, joining the Texas Department of Criminal Justice—members, a body that we represent—the Texas Department of Criminal Justice at only 18 years old. He was also a graduate, in the East End, of Austin High School. He later rose through the ranks of Harris County law enforcement. His commitment to protecting and serving the community exemplified the highest standards of duty and honor.
Members, beyond his professional achievements, Deputy Esqueda was a devoted family member and a beloved fiancé. He enriched the lives of his eight nieces and nephews and enjoyed hunting, fishing, singing, and dancing. Remembering and honoring Deputy Esqueda ensures that his commitment—members, Mr. Speaker, those in the audience, and those watching—his commitment, his courage, and his sacrifice are not forgotten. It also reinforces the values that he stood for—service, honor, family, and community—inspiring generations of future public servants. Because he paid the ultimate sacrifice when he was gunned down, savagely gunned down, by the perpetrator in this act of violence—heinous violence. By passing this previously adopted resolution, we send a strong message of solidarity and compassion to the families of fallen officers throughout this state, affirming that their loved ones' sacrifices will always be remembered and valued by the people of Texas.
Members, I want you to go by on the dais and welcome the family of Deputy Fernando Esqueda, a proud young man. I had the opportunity to meet him. He was a sheriff's deputy that patrolled my part of Houston in the East Aldine Management District area. But I want to recognize several people on the dais: his father, Jose Leonardo Esqueda; his brother Pedro Esqueda; his sister—also in law enforcement, newly minted, not detective—Sergeant Vanessa Esqueda; and finally, another young man—proud young man—Eric Delacruz, a Harris County detention officer and his brother. I also want to recognize, in the gallery, the VIPER unit—in the gallery if they would like to stand also—with the proud Harris County Sheriff's Office. I want to give them a round of applause.
Members, may God, Jesus Christ, keep them—our fallen officers but particularly Deputy Fernando Esqueda—in your grace and comfort. We ask God to wrap his arms around this family and all families of fallen officers. We just want to tell them that we love them; we're never going to forget them. And God bless them. Thank you.

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS CALENDAR
HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTIONS
THIRD READING
The following resolutions were laid before the house and read third time:
HJR 5 ON THIRD READING
(by Lambert, Wilson, Curry, Harris Davila, Spiller, et al.)
HJR 5, A joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment providing for the creation of funds to support the capital needs of educational programs offered by the Texas State Technical College System and removing that system and its campuses from the annual appropriation of certain constitutionally dedicated funding for public institutions of higher education.
HJR 5 - REMARKS
REPRESENTATIVE LAMBERT: Members, this is the bill I laid out yesterday. It creates a permanent endowment fund for the Texas State Technical College System. This endowment, a one-time investment, will be a major step in TSTC securing the capital funds needed to claim their long-term growth, allow them to expand capacity, and strengthen the talent pipeline across the state. Members, TSTC is one of the great success stories in our state. Their efficiency and responsiveness to market demands make them worthy of our investment.
REPRESENTATIVE Y. DAVIS: Thank you, Chairman Lambert. I appreciate you laying out this bill. I just want to ask you a few questions about the process. So HJR 5—when was this bill put on the calendar? When did it go through the committee?
LAMBERT: I'm not advised on the specific date, Ms. Davis, but I think it was fairly early in the session.
Y. DAVIS: And so would you say that you put this on the calendar—got it on the calendar fairly early—because of what?
LAMBERT: Because of the importance of the bill.
Y. DAVIS: Okay. And so the chairman—which committee did this come through?
LAMBERT: This came through the Higher Education Committee.
Y. DAVIS: And so the chairman set your bill based on your wanting to represent TSTC and the constituents. Is that correct?
LAMBERT: Yes, ma'am. That's correct.
Y. DAVIS: Do you think other members in this body ought to enjoy that same liberty—to have their legislation brought forward in a timely manner?
LAMBERT: Yes, ma'am. If those bills are good policy, I do recommend that.
Y. DAVIS: And so, Mr. Chairman, we had a bill for District 111. It seems that you had a problem with it. Is it because it didn't do something yours is doing—other than representing this district?
LAMBERT: Ms. Davis, I'm focused on the bill that talks about workforce education.
Y. DAVIS: And that's what this bill was talking about too—is educating community interest. And so I just want to understand. And I'm not going to hurt this bill because I know the value of TSTC. But you need to understand the value of all of us having the ability to get our legislation set in a timely manner. That's the question that I'm raising. Do you think that we deserve that same respect?
LAMBERT: Yes, ma'am, I do.
Y. DAVIS: And in the future, would you try to endeavor to respect us the way you're asking us to respect your legislation?
LAMBERT: Yes, ma'am. On bills that make good policy, I certainly respect that.
Y. DAVIS: And are you the only one to determine what good policy is?
LAMBERT: It's my understanding that's what a chairman's responsibility is.
Y. DAVIS: Okay. No, no, no, no. Are you individually—is it the committee or is it the chairman? Aren't you obligated to allow us to set ours forward? Otherwise, we wouldn't need a committee; is that correct?
LAMBERT: Representative Davis, if those bills do make good policy, then yes.
Y. DAVIS: And so the question is: Do you think you're the only one who is intelligent enough to determine what good policy is?
LAMBERT: No, I think it deserves discussion among other members of the committee as well as other stakeholders.
Y. DAVIS: And in doing so, do we get to do that without the chairman setting the bill for a hearing in a timely manner?
LAMBERT: I think the chairman has that responsibility—to look at the bills that are being referred to his committee or her committee and make priority decisions about which bills should move forward.
Y. DAVIS: Do you think you ought to tell a member that if you don't know if it can get through the senate, that you don't set it in the house? So this bill that's set here, do we know if it's going to pass the senate?
LAMBERT: I do not know at this time if it's going to pass the senate.
Y. DAVIS: So that would not be a precursor to determine whether or not bills should be heard—whether or not we know if it's going to be heard—if it's going to get through the senate?
LAMBERT: I think there are a lot of things to consider when looking at bills referred to your committee.

REASON FOR VOTE
Representative Vasut submitted the following reason for vote to be printed in the journal:
There were two competing interests at play with CSHB 23. On the one hand is the private property right of the landowner seeking to develop his or her property. When a local government delays permit review or inspections, a landowner's private property rights are impaired and subjected to increased cost.
CSHB 23 seeks to protect private property rights by giving landowners the option to pay for a third-party reviewer to evaluate their development documents or conduct inspections in a more expedited manner to reduce costs that may flow from delays. It is directly in line with Plank 30 of the Republican Party of Texas platform, which calls on the "Texas Legislature to continue to streamline the building permitting process to ease burdens and costs on developers and consumers." It removes government interference with private property rights, limits government power, and better affirms the inalienable property rights of individuals, as called for by priorities 4, 8, and 9 of the Republican Party of Texas platform.
On the other hand, local governments have an interest in adopting reasonable restrictions on reviewing development documents and conducting inspections necessary to protect the private property rights of nearby landowners.
CSHB 23—and the perfecting amendment by Representative Harris—preserves this right by, among other things, requiring the third-party reviewer or inspector to apply the same local standards to the review that would be applied by the local government and giving the local government power to revoke approval if the reviewer/inspector does not follow those standards.
The amendment by Representative Leach also addressed concerns that a nefarious property owner may seek to abuse this provision to skirt local government review by explicitly allowing the local government to review a development document or conduct an inspection if the fundamental constitutional rights of an individual in the area are being violated or the applicant is under investigation by the attorney general, county attorney, or district attorney.
I believe CSHB 23 appropriately balances the private property interests of the landowner and neighbors. For that reason, I voted yes.
POSTPONED BUSINESS
The following bills were laid before the house as postponed business:
SB 326 ON SECOND READING

REASON FOR VOTE
Representative Little submitted the following reason for vote to be printed in the journal:
I remain extremely concerned about the effect of this bill on our freedoms of speech. I am also concerned about creating a regime where schoolchildren can be charged with antisemitism, enforced at the hands of trusted teachers and administrators. While the scourge of antisemitism is very real, I am not sure this bill is the solution. On the sheer hope that our Jewish students in this state will feel safer, I voted yes.

CSHB 2043 ON SECOND READING
(by Lambert and Capriglione)
CSHB 2043, A bill to be entitled An Act relating to the regulation of earned wage access services; requiring an occupational registration; imposing fees.
CSHB 2043 - POINT OF ORDER
Representative Cain raised a point of order against further consideration of CSHB 2043 under Rule 4, Section 40, and Rule 11, Section 2, of the House Rules.
(Speaker in the chair)
The speaker sustained the point of order, announcing his decision to the house as follows:
Mr. Cain raises a point of order against further consideration of CSHB 2043 under Rule 4, Section 40, and Rule 11, Section 2, on the grounds that the committee substitute is not germane.
The introduced bill was relatively narrow, establishing new consumer protections for consumers in dealings with existing earned wage access services. The committee substitute vastly expands the bill, creating a comprehensive regulatory scheme that, among other things, prohibits existing earned wage access services from doing business unless they are registered with the consumer credit commissioner. Nothing in the original bill required a license or registration before doing business. In addition, in the committee substitute, registration is not contingent upon following the same or similar consumer protection requirements in the original bill, but instead imposes requirements not tied to the consumer-business relationship. For example, a service may not operate in the state if the consumer credit commissioner finds that a service cannot "command the confidence of the public." The substitute is vastly broader that the original bill, and thus is not germane. See 88 H. Jour. 2177-2178 (2023); 87 H. Jour. 3882 (2021).
Accordingly, the point of order is well-taken and sustained. Pursuant to Rule 4, Section 41, the bill is returned to the Committee on Calendars.
CSHB 2043 was returned to the Committee on Calendars.
