Texas Senate to fast-track Houston lawmaker’s bill against squatting
Senate Bill 38, introduced in Houston, aims to address squatting issues in Texas. While property owners support it for protecting their rights, critics argue it may undermine tenant protections, particularly for low-income residents. The Texas Senate will soon debate the bill, with amendments proposed to provide safeguards for financially struggling tenants. Stakeholders from various sectors are monitoring the progress closely, as the outcome may influence state housing policy and impact the future of property rights and tenant protections in Texas.
