Relating to renaming the Sunset Advisory Commission as the Sunset Legislative Initiative for Cost Efficiency Advisory Commission and the duties of that commission.
This bill renames Texas' Sunset Advisory Commission to the "Sunset Legislative Initiative for Cost Efficiency Advisory Commission" (SLICE Commission) and updates all relevant state laws to reflect this new name. It changes the commission's title in the Government Code, updates references to it in statutes, and modifies the "Texas Sunset Act" to become the "Texas Sunset Legislative Initiative for Cost Efficiency (SLICE) Act." The bill does not alter the commission's duties, which remain focused on reviewing state agencies' efficiency, effectiveness, and cost-saving opportunities. All existing legal references to the "Sunset Advisory Commission" or "Texas Sunset Act" will automatically refer to the renamed entity under this bill.
