A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT
relating to the use of a concealed handgun license as valid proof of
personal identification.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Subtitle A, Title 11, Business & Commerce Code,
is amended by adding Chapter 506 to read as follows:
CHAPTER 506. CONCEALED HANDGUN LICENSES AS VALID FORMS OF
PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION
Sec. 506.001. CONCEALED HANDGUN LICENSE AS VALID PROOF OF
IDENTIFICATION. (a) A person may not deny the holder of a
concealed handgun license issued under Subchapter H, Chapter 411,
Government Code, access to goods, services, or facilities, except
as provided by Section 521.460, Transportation Code, or in regard
to the operation of a motor vehicle, because the holder has or
presents a concealed handgun license rather than a driver's license
or other acceptable form of personal identification.
(b) This section does not affect:
(1) the requirement under Section 411.205,
Transportation Code, that a person subject to that section present
a driver's license or identification certificate in addition to a
concealed handgun license; or
(2) the types of identification required under federal
law to access airport premises or pass through airport security.
SECTION 2. This Act takes effect September 1, 2013.
