HB 249 — County Bail Bond Board Meetings
Texas would set how often county bail bond boards must meet.
Filed 11/09/2026, HB 249 would would set how often county bail bond boards must meet.
Most of the writing here is about county jails, where people are held before conviction. That is the room a jail bill changes, and the record it either creates or withholds.
What the report shows
The House report for 11/09/2026 lists HB 249 under author Flores, with this caption: “Relating to the frequency of county bail bond board meetings.” Nothing in the report lists a committee, a vote, or a hearing, so this summary does not add any.
What it would mean
Read simply, the caption covers one subject: the jail and custody question named in it. The report does not list money amounts, dates other than the filing date, or any agency findings, and this summary does not supply them. The caption itself: “Relating to the frequency of county bail bond board meetings.”
Author: Flores. Filed: 11/09/2026.
