The bill, H.B. No. 3245, mandates that school districts in Texas provide annual information regarding employee benefits to current employees, retired employees, and their families. This information must include details about insurance, retirement, and death benefits. The new section added to the Education Code, Section 22.013, outlines that school districts can fulfill this requirement through an annual presentation, which may be conducted by a contracted human resources representative.

The provisions of this bill will take effect starting with the 2025-2026 school year. Additionally, the bill stipulates that it will become effective immediately if it receives a two-thirds majority vote from all elected members in both houses; otherwise, it will take effect on September 1, 2025.
