House Bill 4938 (H.B. 4938) was recently introduced by Representative Pat Curry and seeks to abolish the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD), a proposal that would have devastating consequences for the state's natural resources. This bill threatens the conservation, preservation, and management of Texas' public lands, wildlife, and fisheries, putting at risk not only the state's environmental health but also the outdoor recreation and tourism that many Texans rely on. Since its establishment, TPWD has played a critical role in protecting the state's parks and wildlife, ensuring safe and accessible outdoor spaces for millions of residents and visitors each year. The proposed abolition of this department would disrupt vital conservation efforts and reverse any environmental progress Texas has made.
