Relating to the name and governance of the Railroad Commission of Texas.
SB 2635 renames the Railroad Commission of Texas to the Texas Oil, Gas, and Minerals Commission throughout state law. The bill updates all references to the commission in the Natural Resources Code, including definitions, governing provisions, and official documents, to reflect the new name. It does not change the commission's responsibilities, structure, or sunset date (abolished September 1, 2029, unless extended). This is a purely administrative name change affecting all state laws, agency communications, and official materials referencing the commission.
