HB 1383 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the applicability of the law governing the provision of state aid to certain local governments disproportionately affected by the granting of ad valorem tax relief to disabled veterans.

HB 1383 amends Texas Local Government Code Section 140.011 to clarify which local governments qualify for state aid when property tax relief for disabled veterans causes revenue losses. It specifically includes municipalities in counties with U.S. military installations (or adjacent counties) as eligible for "disabled veteran assistance payments." The bill ensures these governments can apply for state aid starting with the fiscal year ending in the 2025 tax year. This change directly affects local governments near military bases that face reduced tax revenue due to veteran tax relief programs.
