A.J. LouderbackTexas State Representative, District 30
Texas lawmakers passed SB 1, the Heaven's 27 Camp Safety Act, to protect young people at youth camps. The law prevents camps from operating sleeping cabins in flood-prone areas and requires camps to have detailed emergency plans. It also creates a public online list of all licensed youth camps in Texas so families can see which camps are approved.
