Texas HB926 modifies rule adoption and voidability criteria for state agencies.

Texas HB926 amends Section 2001.0045(c) of the Government Code to exclude certain rules from the voidability criteria. Specifically, it exempts rules related to state agency procurement, those amended to reduce burden or compliance costs, rules adopted in response to natural disasters, and those necessary for federal funding or compliance, water resource protection, public health, and safety. Additionally, it excludes rules adopted by specific state agencies and self-directed semi-independent agencies, unless the legislature explicitly states otherwise.
