After catastrophic floods, Texas to enact sweeping camp safety law to protect kids

Texas lawmakers introduced Senate Bill 1 to address safety standards at youth camps. Gov. Greg Abbott is expected to sign the bill into law in a ceremony at the governor’s mansion on Friday. Senate Bill 1 is also known as the “Heaven’s 27 Camp Safety Act,” in commemoration of the campers who lost their lives in the tragedy.
