S.B. No. 2007 introduces a new provision to the Texas Transportation Code, specifically adding Section 502.013, which allows applicants registering or renewing the registration of a motor vehicle to voluntarily disclose their military status. Under this new section, the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles is required to provide individuals with the option to indicate if they are members of the United States armed forces during the registration process. If an applicant chooses to disclose their military status, the department must include this information in its vehicle registration records and in any related records released by the department.

The bill aims to enhance the recognition of military personnel within the state's vehicle registration system, ensuring that their service is documented and acknowledged. This legislation is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, following its passage in both the Senate and House with unanimous support.
