Ensuring Texas remains the best place to live, work, and do business.

1/5 Our Coalition came together ahead of the 89th Texas Legislative Session to advocate for sensible state regulatory reform. Our policy goal was simple: Modernize Texas' regulatory system to support continued economic growth for our great state.

4/5 And we are so proud that the legislation passed this session will allow Texas—already the best state in the nation to live, work, and do business—to continue leading the way.

HB 12, signed today by @GregAbbott_TX, strengthens Texas' Sunset review process with a mid-term review and new measures—like efficiency audits, performance metrics, and more public input—to assess how well agencies and programs are achieving their goals. #txlege @TanParkerTX

HB 11, signed by @GregAbbott_TX on May 29, expands licensing reciprocity so professionals who move to Texas can get right to work when they arrive here. The bill also helps businesses looking to grow and creates more choices for consumers. #txlege @DadePhelan @mayes_middleton

SB 14, signed by @GregAbbott_TX on April 23, includes new mechanisms to review and reduce overly burdensome state regulations and ensure all rules are effective, efficient, and easy for Texans to find and understand. #txlege @PhilKingTX @VoteGiovanni

"This long overdue step moves Texas toward dismantling the state’s bloated licensing bureaucracy and lays the groundwork for the state to adopt even more licensing reciprocity."

Today the Senate joined the House in unanimously approving HB 12! 👏We’re grateful to bill sponsors Keith Bell and @TanParkerTX, and we applaud #txlege for passing sound legislation to strengthen Sunset and ensure regulations are effective, efficient, transparent, and up to date!

[Coalition for Regulatory Efficiency and Reform @TxRegReform]

HB 12 would improve government efficiency and accountability by strengthening Texas' Sunset review process with more frequent reviews, new measures to assess agency/program effectiveness, and additional public input. We urge the Senate to pass the bill. https://t.co/hneLhOGfb0

[Coalition for Regulatory Efficiency and Reform @TxRegReform]

We thank bill sponsors @DadePhelan and @mayes_middleton and applaud #txlege for the unanimous passage—in the House AND Senate—of HB 11. This bill will boost our economy, give consumers more choices, and make it easier for new Texans to get right to work when they arrive here! 🎉

[Coalition for Regulatory Efficiency and Reform @TxRegReform]

HB 12 would beef up the Sunset Review process with a mid-term review and common-sense measures to more accurately assess how well agencies and programs are achieving their goals. We applaud @TanParkerTX for sponsoring HB 12 in the Senate and urge his colleagues to pass the bill.

[Coalition for Regulatory Efficiency and Reform @TxRegReform]

Today the Senate B&C Committee will hear HB 11, which would expand occupational licensing reciprocity agreements with other states. This bill is good for workers, employers, consumers, and our Texas economy. We urge #txlege to pass HB 11. Learn more here: https://t.co/AyXktrsQd5

It's #SmallBusinessWeek! Texas has been named the best state for business for 21 consecutive years. CRER salutes the hardworking business owners and employees who power our economy and is proud to champion sound regulatory policies that will help Texas thrive for the long term.

[Coalition for Regulatory Efficiency and Reform @TxRegReform]

2/2 HB 11, passed unanimously out of the House and pending in the Senate, would ease Texas' occupational licensing burden by expanding reciprocity agreements with other states. This would support a more dynamic economy. We urge #txlege to pass this bill. https://t.co/AyXktrsQd5

[Coalition for Regulatory Efficiency and Reform @TxRegReform]

1/2 Did you know Texas has the highest occupational licensing burden in the nation? Onerous licensing laws limit consumer choice and create barriers for people wishing to enter the workforce or start or grow their business. More at @ArchbridgeInst: #txlege https://t.co/wPbOLOYUu1

Sunset reviews help assess the cost and impact of regs and agency operations. But reviews happen just once every 12 years. Tomorrow Senate B&C will hear HB 12, which would strengthen Sunset with a mid-cycle review, efficiency audits, and more public input. https://t.co/hneLhOGN0y

At a hearing for HB 11, occupational licensing expert @EconTrudeau said licensing reciprocity agreements with other states would reduce barriers for workers, create more choices for consumers, and help keep Texas competitive for the long term. Learn more: https://t.co/AyXktrsQd5
