Legislative Information

The Texas Education Agency is required to provide reports on a variety of topics to the Texas Legislature. Currently reports to the 85th and 84th Legislature are available online. Reports presented to early sessions of the legislature may be obtained by contacting TEA's Governmental Relations Division.

After each legislative session, the Texas Education Agency produces a briefing book that describes new laws that impact public education.
