Maddy summaryHB 162 prohibits Texas state and local entities (including courts, law enforcement, and government agencies) from recognizing, serving, or enforcing "extreme risk protective orders" (orders that temporarily restrict firearm access to prevent harm). The bill creates a criminal offense for anyone who attempts to enforce such an order within Texas, and bans acceptance of federal grants for implementing these orders. It directly affects Texas law enforcement, courts, and government agencies by preventing them from complying with these orders, which are typically issued to temporarily remove firearms from individuals deemed a risk. The bill defines these orders as court-issued directives not based on criminal charges, focusing on firearm restrictions for safety.
