AUSTIN, TX – A bill which Sen. Bryan Hughes authored after a landowner found racist language in a deed has received final passage in the Texas Senate.
The Senate voted in favor of SB 885 in a 31-0 vote.
The bill would give property owners a way to remove certain language from quitclaim deeds by placing a statute of limitations on them. All that would need to be done to remove said language is the filing of a simple request.
The bill will now go to the Texas House for consideration.
