41-3539
TO ALL TO WHOM THESE PRESENTS SHALL COME:
Pursuant to Article IV, Section 14, of the Texas Constitution, I, Greg Abbott, Governor
of Texas, do hereby disapprove of and veto Senate Bill No. 1215 as passed by the Eighty-
Fifth Texas Legislature, Regular Session, because of the following objections:
Senate Bill 1215 creates a joint interim committee of the Legislature to study
construction contracts. The House and Senate can, and do, study topics in the
interim without passage of a law. Legislation mandating legislative studies and
legislative interim committees is unnecessary. The Legislature is free to study
construction contracts with or without this bill.
Since the Eighty-Fifth Texas Legislature, Regular Session, by its adjournment has
prevented the return of this bill, I am filing these objections in the office of the Secretary
of State and giving notice thereof by this public proclamation according to the
aforementioned constitutional provision.IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I
have signed my name officially
and caused the Seal of the State to
be affixed hereto at Austin, this
15th day of June, 2017.GREG AB
