The package was fast-tracked after Gov. Greg Abbott declared “bail reform” an emergency item. The bills now head to the House for consideration.

It is the third time the Texas Senate has passed bail reform bills. The bills died in the House the previous times.

The Texas Senate has passed a trio of proposals that would tighten rules around bail in Texas. Earlier this month, Gov. Greg Abbott named “bail reform” as an emergency item for the state’s current legislative session.

A recent budget analysis noted the Texas Senate’s voucher bill could affect the fund if it leads students and teachers to leave public schools.

Last school year, the average teacher in Texas made thousands of dollars less than teachers in other states. A nearly $5 billion bill filed Tuesday in the Legislature seeks to provide across-the-board raises and put more money toward bonuses.

The proposal comes as public school teachers in Texas are leaving the profession in droves and many districts are trying to make up budget shortfalls.
