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 3664 was a House-passed proposal requiring training for prospective grand jurors and, in its later Senate substitute, adding additional safeguards for grand-jury proceedings. It did not become law.
What would change
The Senate committee substitute required prospective grand jurors to complete training on grand-jury purpose, selection, procedure and deliberations. It also addressed re-presenting a previously no-billed case only when new evidence existed and required disclosure or presentation of exculpatory evidence, with related grand-jury documentation requirements.
Who may be affected
Prospective grand jurors, prosecutors, criminal defendants, judges, the Office of Court Administration and Texas Judicial Council.
When it would take effect
HB 3664 did not take effect. It passed the House and was reported favorably as substituted from Senate Criminal Justice on May 28, 2025, but did not receive final Senate passage.
Limits and uncertainty
No mandatory grand-juror training or new re-presentation/exculpatory-evidence procedure was enacted through HB 3664. Existing grand-jury law remains controlling.
