Bill → law → agency context
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.
Official fiscal-note agency context
No verified agency references are available from the latest parsed official fiscal material. KeepTXRed does not infer an administering agency from the bill topic or title.

KeepTXRed summary
HB 3466 was a House-passed proposal narrowing Texas door-to-door and home-solicitation cancellation rules for certain already-regulated or freely cancellable service transactions. The Senate did not pass it.
What would change
The proposal would have excluded from Business & Commerce Code Chapter 601 certain service contracts regulated by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and services that a consumer could cancel at any time when that cancellation right was provided in writing.
Who may be affected
Consumers, service-contract providers, home-service businesses, TDLR-regulated providers, attorneys and businesses using consumer cancellation agreements.
When it would take effect
HB 3466 did not take effect. The House passed it, but it remained pending in the Senate and did not receive final passage. The proposal specified September 1, 2025 as its effective date.
Limits and uncertainty
The proposed exceptions to Chapter 601 were not enacted through HB 3466. Current cancellation rights and exceptions remain governed by existing consumer-protection statutes.
