The bill amends Section 772.0064(d) of the Government Code to update the composition of the Sexual Assault Survivors' Task Force. Notable additions include the inclusion of the president of the Texas Emergency Nurses Association and the president of the International Association of Forensic Nurses Texas Chapter, both of whom will serve or have their designees on the task force. Additionally, the bill modifies the numbering of existing members, reflecting the new insertions and ensuring a comprehensive representation of stakeholders involved in sexual assault prevention and response.

The bill also removes several previous positions from the task force, including the president of a statewide organization described by Section 264.409 of the Family Code, the president of the state sexual assault coalition, and a representative from a law enforcement agency, among others. These changes aim to streamline the task force's membership while enhancing its focus on relevant healthcare and forensic expertise. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon receiving a two-thirds vote from both houses or on September 1, 2025, if that threshold is not met.
