Stakeholder: Governor Greg Abbott (unknown)
The source text explicitly confirms that Governor Greg Abbott signed House Bill 149 (the Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act) into law on June 22, 2025. The record identifies him as 'Governor Greg Abbott (unknown)' which matches the source's identification of him as 'Gov. Greg Abbott, R-Texas'. The party affiliation (R-Texas, meaning Republican) is also confirmed in the source. The '(unknown)' notation in the record appears to be a placeholder for additional metadata, but the core stakeholder identification is accurate and confirmed by the source.
