摘要：	A trio of Texas congressmen have introduced the Texas Coastal Spine Authorization Act in both the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives in an effort to ensure the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers receives the green light to proceed with work outlined in the Coastal Texas Protection and Restoration Study. The $31 billion project, designed to shield the upper Texas Gulf coast from hurricane-related storm surge, was authorized in H.R.7776, the Water Resources Development Act of 2022, which the House passed June 8. The legislation was referred to the Senate the following day, but the Senate so far has not voted on the bill. U.S. senators John Cornyn and Ted Cruz and U.S. Rep. Randy Weber, all Republicans from Texas, each released statements announcing introduction of the stand-alone legislation July 26.
