Relating to acceptable forms of identification for voting.

HB 1003 updates Texas voting laws to expand acceptable photo identification for voters. It adds two new forms: a handgun license from the Department of Public Safety and a photo ID card from a Texas public university (which must include the voter's photo, date of birth, and full legal name). The bill maintains the existing rule that most IDs must not have expired more than four years prior to voting. This directly affects voters who currently use or may use these specific ID types at polling places. The changes take effect September 1, 2025.
