The 2025 Texas Legislative Regular Session is now closed (as of June 2nd), and Governor Abbott vetoed an unusually low 26 bills this session (veto period ended June 22nd). It was a typically active session, but with the slow start in the House, it concluded with a lower percentage of bills passing than is typical (11,503 filed, with 3,562 bills or resolutions passing both chambers—barely 30% in 2025 vs. more than 40% in most sessions). The firm is working with a collaborative group of other special district leaders to provide a recap of the most significant bills and those with more direct relevance to special districts throughout the state. However, stay tuned for more as the Governor has called a special session to commence July 21st, with items to include at least one bill impacting water districts.
