Parents whose children were among 27 killed at Camp Mystic on Texas' Guadalupe River during the Fourth of July flash flooding are scheduled to testify.

Wednesday's meeting of the Select Committee on Disaster Preparedness and Flooding is the public hearing for Senate Bill 1, which covers safety for both youth camps and campgrounds. According to the bill's author, it incorporates significant feedback from the families of children lost at Camp Mystic.

"Our children's lives were cut short because the safeguards in place were not enough," a Campaign for Camp Safety spokesperson is quoted as saying in a press release. "We are asking lawmakers to make sure no other family ever has to endure the pain we have lived with every day since July 4."
