HB 10 (SB14) – Regulatory Reform and Efficiency

HB 10, known as the Regulatory Reform and Efficiency Act, seeks to make Texas government more efficient by reducing unnecessary rules and regulations. The bill establishes a new office within the governor’s office to help state agencies identify outdated rules and remove unnecessary barriers for businesses and residents. By streamlining processes, including simplifying paperwork and reducing fees, the bill aims to cut costs and make it easier for businesses to grow. It also requires rules to be written in clear, plain language. This bill helps to reduce government interference, cut unnecessary costs, and promotes a more business-friendly environment that can drive economic growth and job creation. For these reasons, TFR supports HB 10.
