A San Antonio Democrat has filed a bill that, if passed, would fulfill Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa's promise to send $1,500 checks to every Texas household.

State Sen. Roland Gutierrez's bill was among more than 1,000 filed on Monday for the upcoming session.

The $17 billion proposal lays out a framework for how Hinojosa's idea might work, but it will have to make it through many legislative hurdles if it is to come to fruition.
