BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, is | ||
amended by adding Section 411.1955 to read as follows: | ||
Sec. 411.1955. WAIVER OF CERTAIN FEES FOR SCHOOL MARSHALS. | ||
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this subchapter, the | ||
department shall waive any fee required for the issuance of a | ||
duplicate, modified, or renewed license under this subchapter if | ||
the applicant for the license is currently appointed as a school | ||
marshal under Section 37.0811, 37.0813, or 51.220, Education Code. | ||
(b) The applicant must submit with the application | ||
materials proof of: | ||
(1) active status as a school marshal; and | ||
(2) current licensure under Section 1701.260, | ||
Occupations Code. | ||
SECTION 2. The change in law made by this Act applies only | ||
to an application for a duplicate, modified, or renewed license to | ||
carry a handgun submitted on or after the effective date of this | ||
Act. An application submitted before the effective date of this Act | ||
is governed by the law in effect when the application was submitted, | ||
and the former law is continued in effect for that purpose. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2021. |
