Here's a breakdown of the other major issues we've been tracking.
💰 School finance
House and Senate lawmakers finally agreed on House Bill 2, which authorizes $8.5 billion in funding for public school teacher salaries, special education, school safety and full-day pre-K.
Public school advocates say the funding isn't enough to keep pace with inflation.
What's next: Gov. Greg Abbott has said he intends to sign the bill.
✏️ Vouchers
Abbott signed Senate Bill 2 into law last month, which gives participating families roughly $10,000 per child in state money for private school tuition.
Between the lines: It's a long-fought win for Abbott, who spent millions of dollars reshaping the Legislature to gain the votes he needed for its passage.
🏥 Abortion
A measure that would further limit abortion medications fell short after it missed a key legislative deadline.
Yes, but: Lawmakers passed other abortion laws — one aimed at clarifying an exception that allows doctors to terminate a pregnancy to save the pregnant person's life, and another that bans cities from using taxpayer money for abortion-related travel expenses.
The measure, which reverses a 2019 law that legalized THC, would drastically impact Texas' multibillion-dollar hemp industry and now awaits the governor's approval.
🏠 Property taxes
Lawmakers approved sending a package of property tax reforms to voters this November that would increase the homestead exemption to $200,000 for seniors and $140,000 for everyone else.
