Texans for Public Integrity
89th Legislature · evidence review
How far they got. Where they stopped. What the public record establishes.
Published alignment scores and legislative progress, shown separately.
Protect Texas Kids
Both chambers passed it. The governor objected to the fee-dispute and regional-review mechanism.
2026 plank context: 18, 194; spending restraint 66. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Protect Texas Kids
Both chambers passed it. The veto raised repeated substitutions, delay and representation concerns. The bill concerns counsel for the parent.
2026 plank context: 18, 194. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Secure Texas Elections
Laid out and postponed; no final House passage. The record reviewed does not establish the substantive reason. The House substitute expands Chapter 31 oversight beyond the scored engrossed version.
2026 plank context: 251(f). TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Secure Texas Elections
A point of order was sustained after midnight May 28 under Rule 8 §13(c). The second-reading deadline had passed. This was not a finding of defective bill language.
2026 plank context: 251(f)(vii). TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Protect Texas Kids
Passed the Senate and reached the House calendar; no final House passage. A causal drafting defect is not established.
2026 plank context: 18, 91. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Protect Texas Kids
Passed the Senate and reached the House calendar; no final House passage. Current §37.015 does not contain this proposed penalty mechanism; other enacted reporting laws cover related subjects.
2026 plank context: 92. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Protect Texas Kids
No final Senate passage. The scored House text used a seven-day waiting period; the later Senate substitute used 48 hours. The score does not transfer automatically to the later text.
2026 plank context: 18, 213(b)–(d). TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Border Enforcement
CONDITIONAL: a June 2025 tuition injunction may affect the remaining gap. Its application to this waiver is unresolved here. The bill also expands some waiver caps to 20%; the narrow lawful-presence score does not grade that expansion. Not a verified current loophole.
2026 plank context: 124, 266 — broader policy review unresolved. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Protect Life
Passed the House. The text limits treatment to consented, clinically indicated ovulation-delay emergency contraception and prohibits terminating pregnancy. The score is not a clinical assessment or an official RPT endorsement. Further medical and legal review is needed.
2026 plank context: 23, 219 — scope-limited mapping. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Protect Texas Kids
Passed the Senate but stopped earlier than the other candidates. No causal explanation for committee inaction is established. The scoped score is not a medical claim about vaccine safety.
2026 plank context: 127, 130. TPI analytical mapping, not an RPT endorsement.
Evidence before inference
Eligibility begins with an identified HB/SB measure, an existing completed scoped score of at least 80, and no enactment of that bill. Known enacted equivalents and duplicate packages were screened out. This is a provisional review of the published 93-score set; the full 2,217-measure inventory is not fully validated. Substantive current-law gaps and broader-platform tensions require separate review.
Order follows factual advancement: veto; second-chamber second reading; floor or intent calendar; favorable report to Calendars; hearing left pending; committee referral. Alignment breaks ties, then ascending bill number. Calendar mechanisms differ and placement does not establish sufficient votes. Equal-stage order is a display convention, not a prediction.
All ten existing scores are 100/100 for the named engrossed scope. Later substitutes, enrolled changes and whole-platform context have not been regraded here. Historical benchmarks remain intact. Reasons for inaction are unknown unless a veto or journal establishes a specific barrier.
Screened-out examples: HB 748’s core protection became law through SB 835; HB 4580’s core exemption through 89(2) HB 23. Abortion-drug packages overlap substantially with 89(2) HB 7. This does not imply every provision is identical.
Source standard: separate recorded proceedings, alignment and independent review, following Point of Order. Stage/outcome evidence is strong; future passage and causes of unexplained inaction are not established.
