Bill filing begins today for a divided Texas Legislature’s 2027 session

With Democrats taking charge of the House and Republicans maintaining control of the Senate, the 90th legislative session in Texas is set to kick off in January, marking a significant shift in political dynamics. The bill filing period has commenced, signaling the start of legislative activity for the upcoming session. This shift in power could lead to new policy discussions and debates, especially around issues like education, healthcare, and environmental regulations, which have been contentious in recent years. The differing priorities of the two parties will likely shape the legislative agenda and impact state governance in the coming months.
