FISCAL NOTE, 87TH LEGISLATURE 3rd CALLED SESSION 2021
 
October 5, 2021

TO:
Honorable Trent Ashby, Chair, House Committee on Constitutional Rights & Remedies, Select
 
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB25 by Swanson (Relating to requiring public school students to compete in interscholastic athletic competitions based on biological sex.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

It is assumed that the costs associated with the bill's provisions relating to participation in interscholastic athletic competitions could be absorbed using existing resources.

Local Government Impact

According to the Texas Education Agency, local education agencies may incur administrative costs associated with gathering and maintaining evidence of students' biological sex at birth. Additionally, there may be costs related to providing female students the opportunity to participate in an athletic event for which there is not an equivalent female-designated option, if the district or school chooses to make this available.
