            House Bill 1791 amends the Government Code to clarify that a state agency or a political subdivision of the state may not take any action that states or implies that a handgun license holder who is carrying a handgun is prohibited from entering or remaining on a premises or other place owned or leased by the entity unless license holders are prohibited from carrying a handgun on the premises or other place by law. The bill revises the contents required to be included in the written notice provided by a Texas resident or license holder as part of a complaint filed with the attorney general regarding a violation of that prohibition.
