The bill has been criticized by local officials and advocates for local control, who argue that it would give the state government too much power to override local laws.
Governor Greg Abbott signed Texas House Bill 2127 on June 14, with an effective date of September.
The bill's supporters argue that it is necessary to protect businesses from burdensome regulations and to ensure that there is a uniform set of rules across the state. They also argue that the bill does not give the state government unlimited power to preempt local laws, and that cities can still enact regulations that are not preempted by the state.
The bill is currently being challenged in court by the City of Houston and other cities. The outcome of the lawsuit is still pending.
