How every Texas House member voted on SB 14
Regulatory review. Creates a state office that reviews agency rules and recommends repealing ones it finds unnecessary. It also tells judges to decide for themselves what a law means, rather than accepting the agency’s reading.
The House voted 97 to 51. This is record vote 91 in the House Journal. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick named it a must-pass priority. Governor Greg Abbott signed it.

The site asks you about these same votes with the party labels hidden, then shows you where you landed next to the members who actually voted.
There is also a one-page fact sheet, to print or to hand to someone.
Who made this. Marco Arras, a Texas resident. I donate to the Democratic Party, and I say so before anything else rather than in a footnote. The rule that picks which votes appear is published and runs identically on both caucuses, and every vote and count is in a file you can download and check.
Sources. Roll calls from the Texas House Journal and LegiScan. Governor and Lieutenant Governor actions from the bill history and the Lieutenant Governor’s published priority list.
