Understanding the Outcomes of the 89th Legislative Session

The final day of the 89th Regular Legislative Session in Texas was Monday, June 2. Texas CASA tracked over 366 bills, testified before committees 20 times and registered in support of 122 bills. Texas CASA is very thankful for our local Legislative Advocacy Teams (LATs) for their hard work and advocacy with their local legislative offices. This session, the LATs responded to 240 Action Alerts from Texas CASA. These efforts reflect our continued commitment to both responding to urgent needs and proactively building a more just and responsive child welfare system.
