Texas SB2543 amends the Natural Resources Code to set guidelines for state veterans cemeteries' locations and sizes.

Texas SB2543 amends the Natural Resources Code to establish guidelines for determining the location and size of state veterans cemeteries and eligibility for burial. The Texas Veterans Commission, along with two representatives of the veterans community, will select up to seven locations across the state for these cemeteries. The board may use funds from the veterans' land fund, the veterans' housing assistance fund, and the veterans' housing assistance fund II for planning, designing, operating, maintaining, enlarging, or improving veterans cemeteries, but not for acquiring land.
