CLEAT was back in the Capitol yesterday with Deputy Exec Director Jennifer Szimanski as invited testimony for the Select Committee on Governmental Oversight.
The discussion was centered around standardizing confidentiality on law enforcement personnel records. We want to thank Governor Greg Abbott for his continued support of the legislation from last session, as well as Senator Phil King and the Senate, who passed the bill multiple times last session.
CLEAT looks forward to getting this to the finish line for Texas law enforcement in the 90th. Thank you Speaker Dustin Burrows for Texas, Chair Representative Cody Thane Vasut, and Rep Cole Hefner for supporting this bill and for the interim discussions!
