A San Antonio Democrat has filed a bill that, if passed, would fulfill Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa’s promise to send $1,500 checks to every Texas household. The bill, Senate Bill 297, was filed by State Sen. Roland Gutierrez and aims to appropriate $17 billion from the state’s rainy day fund to cover the costs. The payments are expected to be distributed by the end of 2027. However, passing the bill requires significant GOP support as Republicans control the state Senate.
