Texas SB2263 mandates annual reporting on county jail prisoners in out-of-state facilities and requires an investigation into prisoner deaths.

Texas SB2263 requires each county jail to submit an annual report to the commission detailing the confinement of prisoners in out-of-state correctional facilities. The report must include the total number of prisoners confined, those who died, and those who escaped or attempted to escape. The commission must then summarize these reports and submit them to the governor, lieutenant governor, and speaker of the house of representatives. If a prisoner dies in an out-of-state facility, the justice of the peace must conduct an inquiry and file a report with the attorney general within 30 days.
