Instructing the enrolling clerk of the house of representatives to make corrections in H.B. No. 3287.
The resolution instructs the enrolling clerk of the House of Representatives to make specific corrections in the enrolled version of HB 3287. These changes involve updating and clarifying references to the Alcoholic Beverage Code, thereby ensuring that the bill adheres to legal standards and maintains coherence within Texas law. The resolution does not propose new policies but rather ensures that existing legislative intentions are accurately reflected in the law.
House Concurrent Resolution No. 153 is a legislative proposal that addresses the need for technical corrections within House Bill No. 3287, which had recently passed through both the Texas House of Representatives and the Senate. The resolution specifies particular amendments to the language and citations within HB 3287 to ensure accuracy and clarity in the law. Such technical corrections are not uncommon in the legislative process as they help to avoid legal ambiguities and inconsistencies.
The sentiment surrounding HCR153 appears to be neutral, as it primarily deals with administrative corrections rather than policy changes that could spur significant public debate. The unanimous votes from both the House (136 yeas, 0 nays) and Senate (31 yeas, 0 nays) indicate a broad consensus among legislators regarding the importance of maintaining clarity and precision in legislative documents.
Being a resolution focused on corrections rather than substantive changes, HCR153 did not generate notable points of contention. However, it implicitly underscores the importance of diligence in the legislative process, as errors in previous bills can lead to complications in implementation and enforcement. The resolution reflects a collaborative effort among legislators to ensure that laws are properly enacted and that any technical errors are promptly rectified.
