H.B. No. 2921 aims to enhance the confidentiality of personal identifying information collected by local governments and airport governing boards in Texas. The bill amends Section 22.028 and Section 22.091 of the Transportation Code to specify that such information is confidential and not subject to disclosure under Chapter 552 of the Government Code. The amendments include the addition of various types of personal information that are protected, such as a person's travel dates, flight information, profile names associated with purchases, and details regarding airport lounge memberships and trusted traveler information.

The bill also removes references to "parking" facilities, broadening the scope of confidentiality to encompass all aspects of a person's use of an airport. The changes will only apply to requests for public information received on or after the effective date of the Act, which is set for September 1, 2025. This legislation is designed to better protect the privacy of individuals interacting with local governments and airport services.
