Senate reads bill to create K‑16 education savings accounts on first reading
Summary
Senate Bill 2, introduced as "by Creighton et al.," was read on first reading to establish an education savings account program for K‑16; the bill was presented on first reading and placed on reference to committee as read into the record.
The Texas Senate placed Senate Bill 2 on first reading; the secretary read the bill caption, identifying it as "Senate Bill 2 by Creighton et al., relating to the establishment of an education savings account program to education K through 16."
The reading occurred immediately after the clerk announced the set of bills on first reading and reference to committee. The transcript records the bill caption as read but contains no recorded debate, amendments or roll-call votes during the excerpt provided. The bill therefore remains at the first-reading stage and subject to referral or committee consideration under Senate procedures.
The reading was short and procedural: the chamber heard the bill caption on the record and took no further action in the excerpt. Any subsequent committee referral, hearings or amendments were not recorded in the supplied transcript excerpt.
