The Legislative Study Group is dedicated to advancing mainstream public policy ideals and ensuring that all LSG caucus members have the necessary information to make informed decisions, leading to the best public policy for all Texans. Since the 73rd Legislative Session, LSG staff has provided accurate and detailed bill evaluations for all of its members. In addition, LSG floor reports have proved to be an invaluable tool for dissecting legislation and preparing for floor debates.
By arming members with accurate information LSG has proved to be a vital part of many legislative battles including protecting key teacher's rights to benefits, protecting and strengthening our public schools by helping to defeat the sending of tax dollars to private schools, and leading the effort to stop the crippling cuts to the CHIP program.
LSG serves as a primary conduit for the flow of information to legislators on the House floor, during the legislative session. Full time, expert staff focused on key policy areas provide detailed analysis of bills which fall into one of five areas of interest: education, environment, budget, health and human services, and worker and consumer issues. Each area of interest has a specific LSG staff member assigned to track and analyze legislation.
