House Bill 1891 amends the Parks and Wildlife Code to make a member of the Kickapoo Traditional Tribe of Texas who possesses documentation of membership sanctioned by the Bureau of Indian Affairs eligible for a resident hunting license and to authorize a documented member of the tribe who holds such a license to hunt antlerless white-tailed deer for religious ceremonial purposes on any day of the year between one-half hour before sunrise and one-half hour after sunset, subject to the requirements prescribed by the bill. The bill restricts this authorization to hunting on land owned or leased by the tribe in certain counties.
