Texas HB5554 transfers the operation and management of the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum to the Texas Historical Commission.

Texas HB5554 amends the Government Code to establish the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum as a facility on the campus of West Texas A&M University, managed by the Texas Historical Commission. The bill authorizes the commission to contract with the Panhandle-Plains Historical Society for museum management and with West Texas A&M University for facility management. The Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum fund, outside the state treasury, supports the museum's operations through admissions, gift shop sales, and donations. The fund's income and interest are reinvested into the museum.
