            House Bill 4042 amends the Alcoholic Beverage Code and Tax Code to rename a temporary charitable auction permit as a temporary auction permit and to change the purpose for which such a permit holder may auction alcoholic beverages. The bill also prohibits the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) from imposing a surcharge for a temporary auction permit, authorizes TABC to issue such a permit to a person or group of persons who are subject to recordkeeping requirements under Election Code provisions regarding political reporting, and removes the prohibition against a temporary auction permit holder conducting more than one auction during each calendar year.
