Texas SB2620 shields businesses from liability if they allow concealed handguns on their premises.

Texas SB2620 amends the Civil Practice and Remedies Code to protect businesses from civil liability if they permit a licensed handgun carrier to bring a concealed handgun onto their premises. The law defines "license holder" as someone licensed under Texas Government Code. Businesses are exempt from liability for damages caused by the lawful carrying of a concealed handgun if they allow entry by a license holder. The law does not apply to causes of action that began before its effective date, which is September 1, 2025.
