H.R. No. 1499 is a resolution passed by the Texas House of Representatives during the 89th Legislature's Regular Session in 2025. The resolution seeks to partially suspend House Rule 13, Section 9(a) to allow a conference committee to address differences in Senate Bill 650, which mandates the use of electronically readable information for verifying the age of purchasers in the retail sale of alcoholic beverages. Specifically, the resolution permits the committee to omit certain text from the bill that is not in dispute, particularly concerning the requirements for package store permit holders.

The omitted text pertains to the verification process for age when selling alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption. By allowing the committee to remove the specified section, the resolution aims to clarify that package store permit holders must visually inspect and access electronically readable information from identification documents, such as driver's licenses, to ensure compliance with age verification laws. The resolution was adopted by a vote of 86 in favor, 48 against, with 2 members present but not voting.
