In 1977, the Texas Legislature created the Sunset Advisory Commission to identify and eliminate waste, duplication, and inefficiency in government agencies. The 12-member Commission is a legislative body that reviews the policies and programs of more than 150 government agencies every 12 years. The Commission questions the need for each agency, looks for potential duplication of other public services or programs, and considers new and innovative changes to improve each agency's operations and activities. The Commission seeks public input through hearings on every agency under Sunset review and recommends actions on each agency to the full Legislature. In most cases, agencies under Sunset review are automatically abolished unless legislation is enacted to continue them.

Was kerner commission apart of the black power movement?

The Kerner Commission, officially known as the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, was established in 1967 to investigate the causes of race riots in the United States. While it was not directly part of the Black Power movement, its findings highlighted systemic racism and economic inequality, issues that were central to the movement. The commission's report called for significant reforms, which resonated with the goals of many Black Power advocates seeking to address racial injustices. Thus, while distinct in purpose, the Kerner Commission's work aligned with the broader struggles for civil rights and empowerment during that era.
