| Legislative Update |
| The Texas legislative session is in high gear as it winds down to its last 45 days, with marathon hearings and sessions of the House and Senate making for long days and nights at the Texas Capitol. Texas Community Association Advocates Board members, lobbyists, volunteers, and team members are spending many hours advocating for positive legislation and opposing negative legislation. More than 6,000 bills have been filed in the Texas Legislature for the 2015 legislative session. The TCAA Board, lobby team, and volunteers have analyzed all the bills that were filed and we are currently monitoring proposed legislation, crafting alternative legislation for certain bills, crafting amendments where clarification is necessary, and monitoring and attending committee hearings for nearly 200 bills that may affect community associations. On April 14, fifteen (15) community-association bills were heard in one day, in four different committees. TCAA was well represented, with testimony on numerous bills. Many volunteers came to testify and explain why particular bills help or hurt community associations. Thanks to everyone who took the time to travel to Austin to testify.
