Verdict: Smells
Both charges, and why
Study, task force, commission, report
The bill's only duty is to create a committee that makes recommendations to the commission about an existing training program. Any change to the training waits on that advice and on the commission choosing to act on it.

Summary
The committee gives advice on existing active shooter training. Any change waits on the commission.
The bill tells the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement to set up a five-member advisory committee, with all five members picked by the commission itself. The committee's only job is to give the commission recommendations on the content and rollout of the active shooter response training that peace officers already must take under existing law. No training requirement changes on the ground; the committee just advises, and the bill takes effect September 1, 2025.
