House Witness Registration is the quick and simple new way to register for an upcoming House Committee hearing. House Administration has made the witness registration paperless. Now, you can complete the new 5-step registration process when you arrive the Texas Capitol by using one of the touch screen kiosk stations located in the Capitol Extension. You can choose to save your profile information to use for future hearings.

Registration stations are located in the Texas Capitol Extension on levels 1 and 2.

You can also access House Witness Registration on your iPad through the capitol's public wireless network.

1. When within network range, tap Settings on your iPad.
