Relating to making supplemental appropriations for disaster relief and giving direction and adjustment authority regarding those appropriations.

HB 3 allocates $274 million in supplemental funding from Texas' economic stabilization fund for disaster relief and preparedness. It provides $200 million to match federal disaster funds and address state disaster needs, $50 million for local grants to 33 specific counties (including Travis and Bexar) affected by a July 2025 flood declaration to install flood warning systems, and $24 million to improve meteorological forecasting and flood management in the Texas Hill Country. The bill also includes a contingent $50 million for emergency communications systems, dependent on separate legislation (H.B. 2) being enacted. These funds are allocated for a two-year period starting when the bill takes effect.
