Relating to training for peace officers on acquired and traumatic brain injuries and trauma-affected veterans.

SB 421 requires Texas peace officers to complete training on acquired and traumatic brain injuries and trauma-affected veterans as part of their minimum curriculum. This applies to officers beginning their training on or after January 1, 2026, under new provisions added to the Occupations Code. The bill mandates that the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement establish specific training programs to meet this requirement. The law takes effect September 1, 2025, with implementation rules to be adopted by the commission.
