Texas HB2031 prohibits landlords from banning tenants from possessing firearms or ammunition on leased premises unless prohibited by law.

Texas HB2031 amends the Property Code to ensure landlords cannot prohibit tenants or their guests from possessing, carrying, transporting, or storing firearms or ammunition in rental units, parking areas, or other landlord-controlled areas necessary for tenant access. Landlords face civil penalties for violations, with escalating fines for repeat offenses. Tenants can file complaints with the attorney general, who must investigate and notify landlords of violations.
