H.B. No. 1922 amends Chapter 2272 of the Government Code by adding Section 2272.010, which specifies the accrual of a cause of action for certain construction liability claims. According to the new provision, a cause of action will accrue on the date that the report required by Section 2272.003 is postmarked by the United States Postal Service. However, this change only applies to the specific context of this chapter; for all other purposes, such as determining the date of an occurrence under an insurance policy or assessing whether an action is barred by a statute of limitations or repose, the accrual date remains unchanged.

The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, following its passage in both the House and Senate with significant support. The House approved the bill with a vote of 117 in favor and 2 against, while the Senate passed it unanimously with a vote of 31 to 0.
