Following each legislative session in Texas, organizations, state agencies, and other entities publish "wrap-ups" summarizing new laws and key legislative developments in areas such as education or the environment. Wrap-ups can range from a simple list of bills to a detailed report that includes background information and expert analysis.
At the library, we track legislative wrap-ups since they can be excellent research tools. Listed below is a short selection. More are available, and some are still being written. To find one on a topic that interests you, check the websites of organizations or state agencies that focus on the issue, or contact the library for assistance.
