Relating to the eligibility of a service member or veteran of the United States armed forces to participate in a veterans treatment court program based on citizenship status.

HB 3894 ensures veterans and active-duty service members in Texas cannot be denied access to veterans treatment court programs solely due to their citizenship status. The bill amends the Government Code to explicitly prohibit citizenship-based eligibility restrictions for these programs. It directly affects veterans and service members who might have faced barriers related to immigration status when seeking participation in treatment courts. The key provision requires courts to consider all eligible veterans for these specialized programs regardless of citizenship. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
