S.B. No. 2383 amends Section 411.007 of the Government Code to introduce new provisions regarding the employment of certain peace officers within the Department of Public Safety. Specifically, the bill adds Subsections (h) and (i), which state that the existing regulations in Subsections (e), (e-1), and (f) do not apply to retired commissioned officers who are re-employed by the department as commissioned officers. Additionally, it defines a "retired commissioned officer" as someone who has retired from the Employees Retirement System of Texas, having last served as a commissioned officer within the department.

The provisions of this bill will only apply to individuals hired on or after its effective date, which is set for September 1, 2025. The bill received unanimous support in both the Senate and the House, indicating strong legislative backing for the changes proposed.
