House Bill No. 3193 aims to enhance the penalties for intoxication assault and intoxication manslaughter while also modifying the eligibility criteria for community supervision, parole, and mandatory supervision for certain offenses. The bill introduces Article 42A.060, which prohibits community supervision for defendants convicted of intoxication manslaughter under Section 49.08 of the Penal Code if the punishment was increased under Section 49.09(b-2)(2). Additionally, it amends the Government Code to include similar restrictions on parole and mandatory supervision for inmates convicted of the same offense.

The bill further specifies that an offense under Section 49.08 can be classified as a felony of the first degree with a minimum confinement term of 15 years if it results in the death of certain individuals, such as a child under 10 years old or multiple victims in a single incident. It also clarifies the definition of "prosecutor" within the context of these offenses. The changes will apply only to offenses committed on or after the effective date of the Act, which is set for September 1, 2025.
