Nature-based infrastructure bill headed to house floor as legislative session continues

Texas State Rep. Erin Zwiener (D-Driftwood) presented several house bills for the 87th Texas Legislative Session in committees this week, one of which is heading to the house floor.

Zwiener presented House Bill 48 to the House International Relations and Economic Development Committee and House Bills 2344 and 2350 to the House Public Education Committee and House Natural Resources Committee, respectively. 

All bills were received favorably, according to Zwiener’s Chief of Staff Victoria Godinez, and HB 2350, which would incentivize nature-based infrastructure projects through the Clean Water State Revolving Fund, was voted out of committee and on to the house floor for debate.
