Bill Summary
Relating to the licensing of certain veterans by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement and the hiring of those veterans by political subdivisions.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Texas Local Government Code and the Texas Occupations Code to allow certain honorably discharged veterans who are legal permanent residents of the United States to be licensed by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement and hired by political subdivisions, even if they are not yet U.S. citizens. The bill requires the Commission to issue licenses to eligible veterans who have applied for U.S. citizenship, and it allows political subdivisions to hire these veterans for positions that require a Commission-issued license, as long as the veteran is not hired to a supervisory position until they become a U.S. citizen.
