R E S O L U T I O N
         BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the State of
  Texas, 88th Legislature, Regular Session, 2023, That House Rule 13,
  Section 9(a), be suspended in part as provided by House Rule 13,
  Section 9(f), to enable the conference committee appointed to
  resolve the differences on Senate Bill 1238 (broadband development)
  to consider and take action on the following matter:
         House Rule 13, Section 9(a)(4), is suspended to permit the
  committee to add text on a matter not included in either the house
  or senate version of the bill in proposed SECTION 6 of the bill, by
  amending Section 490I.0110(i), Government Code, to read as follows:
         (i)  A person who is professionally affiliated with a person
  serving as a member of the board of advisors is not eligible for
  funding from the broadband development program under Section
  490I.0106 if the member is involved in decisions regarding the
  award of grants, loans, or other financial incentives under that
  section.
         Explanation: The added text would ensure that a person is
  ineligible for funding under Section 490I.0110(i), Government
  Code, only if the person is professionally affiliated with a member
  of the broadband development office board of advisors who is
  involved in decisions regarding the award of grants, loans, or
  other financial incentives.
