The provisions of the bill addressing felony sanctions are the subject of this analysis. The bill would amend the Government Code as it relates to a license to carry a handgun for a person who is at increased risk of becoming a victim of violence. Under the provisions of the bill, the Department of Public Safety would develop a procedure for persons who are at increased risk of becoming a victim of violence to obtain a handgun license as outlined in the bill.  

This analysis assumes implementing the provisions of the bill addressing felony sanctions would not result in a significant impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources.
