Watch the Texas Legislature Live: Video Feed, Session Dates and How to Follow

This feed plays on its own official site, so there is no player on this page. Use the link below to watch.

What Is This Feed?

The Texas House and Senate each webcast chamber and committee sessions, at house.texas.gov and senate.texas.gov. There are 150 representatives and 31 senators at the Capitol in Austin.

When Can I Watch?

Texas had no 2026 regular session. It meets in odd-numbered years for 140 days, from January into June. The governor can also call special sessions. Dates change each year, so confirm the current calendar on the official site.

Why This Feed Matters?

Texas meets only 140 days every two years but governs one of the world's largest economies. With so little time and so much at stake, a public webcast helps ordinary Texans see which bills get attention and which get lost in the rush.

Common Questions

How often does the Texas Legislature meet?
Every other year for 140 days.
