  • August 13, 2021 the Honorable Greg Abbott the Honorable Mike Morath
    THE SECRETARY OF EDUCATION WASHINGTON, DC 20202 August 13, 2021 The Honorable Greg Abbott The Honorable Mike Morath Governor Commissioner The Capitol Texas Education Agency PO Box 12428 1701 N. Congress Avenue Austin, TX 78711 Austin, TX 78701 Dear Governor Abbott and Commissioner Morath: As the new school year begins in school districts across Texas, it is our shared priority that students return to in-person instruction safely. The safe return to in-person instruction requires that school districts be able to protect the health and safety of students and educators, and that families have confidence that their schools are doing everything possible to keep students healthy. Texas’s recent actions to block school districts from voluntarily adopting science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 that are aligned with the guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) puts these goals at risk and may infringe upon a school district’s authority to adopt policies to protect students and educators as they develop their safe return to in-person instruction plans required by Federal law. We are aware that Texas has issued an Executive Order prohibiting local educational agencies (LEAs), among other local government entities, from adopting requirements for the universal wearing of masks.1 Further, guidance released on August 5, 2021, by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) states that “school systems are not required to conduct COVID-19 contact tracing.”2 These State level actions against science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 appear to restrict the development of local health and safety policies and are at odds with the school district planning process embodied in the U.S.

  • Governor Abbott Signs Tobacco 21 Into Law
    PRESS RELEASE 06.08.19 Governor Abbott Signs Tobacco 21 Into Law Austin, TX – Senator Eddie Lucio (D-Brownsville), joint authored legislation increasing the age to purchase tobacco from 18 to 21 years. Texas gov. signs law increasing age to buy tobacco products to 21∗ Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has signed Senate Bill 21 into law, which will end the sale of tobacco products to those under 21. Supporters say increasing the minimum age by three years should reduce the risk of addiction. Abbott on Friday signed the legislation, which covers cigarettes, e-cigarettes or other tobacco products. The only exception to the law is for those in the military. The law will go into effect September 1. Anyone caught breaking this new law, the bill states, will face a Class C misdemeanor and a fine of up to $500. Texas is among a growing number of states raising the tobacco age. Illinois signed similar legislation in May. States where the legal age is already 21 include Hawaii, California, New Jersey, Oregon, Maine and Massachusetts. Laws will take effect later this year in Arkansas and Virginia. Shelby Massey with the American Heart Association told CNN affiliate KXAN-TV, "Delaying the age when young people first begin to use tobacco -- the leading cause of preventable death -- will reduce the risk they will develop a deadly addiction." The number of middle and high school tobacco users increased by 36% between 2017 and 2018, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The increase, the CDC states, is due to the "surge in e-cigarette use." "The skyrocketing growth of young people's e-cigarette use over the past year threatens to erase progress made in reducing youth tobacco use.

    March 24, 2020 Governor Greg Abbott P.O. Box 12428 Austin, Texas 78711-2428 Dear Governor Abbott: The Texas Psychological Association (TPA) represents the voices of over 4,500 psychologists in this state, but today we are writing on behalf of all under and uninsured Texans who may be in need of mental health resources during the COVID-19 pandemic. Fear and panic continue to spread across the state. It is imperative that we establish access to mental health services for all Texans in these difficult times. Texas psychologists stand ready to help. TPA has already initiated protocols to partner with its members to provide limited free mental health services to those in need. In an effort to flatten the curve and encourage social distancing, these services are to be provided exclusively via telephone or telehealth platforms. But we cannot do it alone. We are asking for your support in directing the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) to establish a database of mental health professionals to supplement mental health access on a temporary basis. This was most recently done by DSHS following Hurricane Harvey, as well as Texas Health and Human Services after the El Paso shooting. Other states are taking action. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has directed its state health department in seeking qualified mental health professionals who are interested in supporting the state’s response. We know you are committed to both the public and mental health of Texans and appreciate your attention to this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Executive Director, Jessica Magee, at [email protected].

  • 84Th Legislative Session TAMUS Cumulative Report
    The 84th Legislative Session Cumulative Report The Texas A&M University System August 2015 Table of Contents Overview of the 84th Legislative Session…………………………………………………………………………………………1 Appropriations / Riders………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….21 Bill Facts…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………53 TAMUS Institution-Specific Legislation…………………………………………………………………………………………..55 Overview of Key Higher Education Legislation……………………………………………………………………………….61 Other Bills of Interest…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….87 Bill Analysis Task Force…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..95 State Relations……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….97 Overview of the 84th Legislative Regular Session The 2014 election marked significant changes in statewide leadership positions. With a new Governor and Lieutenant Governor at the helm for the first time in more than a decade, combined with the addition of several newly elected Members, the priorities and process for the 84th Texas Legislature were somewhat unclear at the outset. Governor Greg Abbott and Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick assumed their new roles and claimed a strong conservative mandate as a result of their electoral victories. In his first State of the State address, Governor Abbott outlined an agenda built on his campaign proposals, and set forth five “emergency items” – border security, transportation, pre-kindergarten, ethics reform, and higher education research funding. As the Governor’s designated emergency items, they were eligible for consideration earlier in the session. Newly elected Lieutenant Governor Patrick took the reins of the Republican-led Senate, and with the strong backing of the State’s most conservative voters, put forth his major priorities for the 84th Legislative Session. In his inauguration speech, the Lieutenant Governor cited border security, expanded Second Amendment rights, lower property and business taxes, expanded school choice, and reduced costs for higher education among his chief agenda items.
