Texas HB4376 modifies visitation plans for children under the conservatorship of the Department of Family and Protective Services based on parental.

Texas HB4376 amends the Family Code to add Section 263.110, which addresses the effect of positive drug test results on parental visitation. If a drug test ordered by the court shows the presence of marijuana or a controlled substance not prescribed by a health care practitioner, the court must modify the visitation plan to terminate the parent's visitation with the child. A parent whose visitation is terminated can request reinstatement only after a subsequent drug test shows no presence of the prohibited substances. This Act takes effect September 1, 2025.
