This relationship layer distinguishes what the normalized official record can prove from what it cannot. Enactment and effective dates come from the bill record. Agency names below are shown only when an official fiscal document supplies a verified agency reference; being cited in a fiscal note does not by itself prove that the agency administers the resulting law.

KeepTXRed summary

HB 1119 was a House-passed mental-health transparency proposal expanding the required biennial report on regional allocation of state-funded mental-health beds and services. It did not become law.

What would change

The proposal would have required more detail about bed-day allocation methodology, regional facility capacity, demand and waitlists, state funding by service type, patients served, patient outcomes, service gaps, capacity constraints and entities denied mental-health grants because of funding limits.

Who may be affected

People needing inpatient mental-health care, families, HHSC, state hospitals, local mental-health authorities, providers, lawmakers and communities facing bed shortages.

When it would take effect

HB 1119 did not take effect. It passed the House and was referred to Senate Health & Human Services on May 14, 2025, but did not receive final Senate passage.

Limits and uncertainty

No expanded mental-health-bed reporting mandate was enacted through HB 1119. Existing statutory reports and HHSC planning requirements remain controlling.
