The Texas State Senate passed SB462 on April 16, 2019 by a vote of 19 to 12. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because this bill will help ensure people know what they are voting for. Too often, we see resolutions confusingly written that will increase taxes and have other deleterious effects. SB462 would ensure taxpayers know what they are signing up for when voting on resolutions.
