HB 1108 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to motorcycle profiling by peace officers.

HB 1108 prohibits Texas peace officers from engaging in "motorcycle profiling," defined as stopping riders based solely on their motorcycle, gear, or club affiliation rather than behavior or criminal suspicion. The bill requires all Texas law enforcement agencies to adopt written policies by December 1, 2025, that define profiling, ban it, establish complaint procedures for affected individuals, and mandate corrective action for violations. These policies must cover traffic stops involving motorcycles and extend beyond the stop's necessary duration. The bill is pending in committee and would take effect September 1, 2025, if passed.
