Hearings this week will address
- The K-12 public education budget; and
- First meetings for the House Public Education and Senate Education committees.
This week, the education committees in both chambers will hold their first meetings to get organized, set rules, and hear from state agency officials. They will begin to set hearings on bills as soon as the following week.
You can watch the hearings live online. Each hearing typically covers multiple bills (click the links below to see the agendas). For hearings in the Texas House, you can submit comments about any of the bills being discussed during the hearing using an online portal (even if they've moved on to a different bill).
