The bill, H.B. No. 1900, proposes to amend the Election Code in Texas by adding a new section, 61.015, which allows individuals to distribute water to voters waiting in line at polling places under specific conditions. The water must be provided in a single-use, sealed container without any branding or political messaging. Additionally, the distribution must be conducted in a nonpartisan manner and should not obstruct the voting process.

Furthermore, individuals distributing water are prohibited from wearing campaign-related attire or displaying any materials associated with a political party or measure. Election officials are tasked with ensuring compliance with these regulations and have the authority to remove anyone who violates the provisions from the polling place. The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
