2026 House of Representatives introduces House File 2787 and adjourns until April 27, 2026

The 2026 House of Representatives convened and opened its proceedings with a prayer offered by Representative Young of Dallas, who led the chamber in a reading of Psalm 41:1–3 and the Pledge of Allegiance. The chair then called the body to routine business and announced that the journal stands approved.

The clerk read the title of House File 2787, reported from the committee on oversight, described during the reading as a bill "prohibiting warrant resolutions and clinics, including enforcement mechanisms, providing penalties and including effective date provision." The chair stated the bill was given its first reading and placed on the calendar. No debate or further remarks on the bill were recorded in the transcript.

Following that business, a lawmaker moved that the House adjourn until Monday, April 27, 2026, at 1 p.m. The chair put the motion to a voice vote; the ayes were declared to have it and the House was adjourned. The chair also recognized Representative Harris during the session, but no remarks by Representative Harris appear in the transcript.

The House is scheduled to reconvene on the date announced at adjournment.
