Texas Senate bill in Session 892.
Status: in_committee. Latest action: August 20, 2025.
Relating to testimony or the production of evidence before a house of the legislature or a legislative committee.
Current law does not allow a person called by the legislature or a legislative committee to refuse to testify or produce a document on the grounds that doing so will incriminate the person. In exchange, if a person is compelled to testify while claiming that the testimony or document may incriminate the person, Texas law grants the person complete immunity from prosecution, such that the person may not be indicted or prosecuted for any matter related to the testimony. This is known as transactional immunity.
