Relating to emergency warning systems operated by municipalities and counties.
HB 267 allows Texas cities and counties to use driver's license applicant contact information for emergency warning systems, with resident consent. When applying for or renewing a driver's license, residents can voluntarily opt-in to share their contact details (phone, email, address) for local emergency alerts. Residents may also request removal from the system at any time. The bill requires the Texas Department of Public Safety to include a consent option on license applications and prohibits using collected contact information for any purpose other than emergency warnings.
