SB 2753 – Streamlines voting procedures statewide

The original Senate version of SB 2753 overhauled Texas election procedures by consolidating early voting and Election Day into a single, streamlined in-person voting period. It eliminated inefficient overlaps between early and Election Day voting and ensures all ballots are processed under a consistent framework, reducing unnecessary administrative burdens and costs, and tightening and simplifying Texas voting system. However, the House version replaces that with a study program on what the original senate version would have done. TFR recommends amending the bill to return it to its original senate version, in order to more fully secure Texas elections, protect taxpayers and their money, and ensure trust in our system of government.
