HB 238, by Krause - Forbids a state agency, city/county/other political subdivision, or person employed by them (LEO) from enforcing any any federal regulation, prohibition, or ban on firearms, ammo, or firearms accessories that does not exist in Texas state law. A firearm acessory is anything used with or mounted on a firearm. There is an exception for laws already in effect pertaining to border security. An agency who breaks this law would not receive state grant funds, and the attorney general may issue a court order for them to comply with this law if a citizen complains. The attorney general would be required to defend any agencies if the federal government sues them for following this law.
