Note that Article III, Section [[Texas Constitution:Article III, Section 56|56(b)]] generally prohibits "local or special" laws.

A local bill proposes a local law that applies to a limited area of the state.

A bracket bill proposes a law that applies to a limited area based on criteria.

Depending on its wording and effect, a bracket bill may be judged a local bill.

A special bill proposes a special law that applies to a limited class of persons.
