In Texas, you can choose how you want to live. Unfortunately, Texans do not have the freedom to choose what happens to our bodies after we die. Show your support for SB105 and give Texans the right to choose. Water cremation is currently a legal options for citizens in 26 states.

In Texas, you have the legal right to:
- Own property
- Drive
- Get married
- Possess firearms, and more

But you don’t yet have the freedom to choose your body’s disposition upon death. There are limited options in Texas, and many methods are currently illegal including newer forms of disposition, such as water cremation and your body’s return to the land (natural organic reduction).

As part of the 88th legislative session (spring 2023), Representative Ann Johnson of Harris County filed H.B. 2895 on February 27 to amend the definition of cremation under Texas state law and include water cremation, also known as alkaline hydrolysis, as a choice for all Texans. This is the third legislative motion to expand Texans’ rights to choose their preferred method of disposal of remains. 

H.B. 2895 reads,

“’Cremation’ means the irreversible process of reducing human remains to essential elements, including bone fragments, through direct flame, extreme heat, and evaporation or through alkaline hydrolysis.”

SB105 in support of legalizing water cremation is also being introduced by Senator Nathan Johnson of Dallas County. More details coming soon.

The 88th Legislature is in session. NOW is the time to urge your state representative to prioritize your rights and legalize water cremation (AKA alkaline hydrolysis) in Texas.
