2021 Legislative & Annual Report: Parking
<1 minute read
CTD has worked with the Paralyzed Veterans of America - Texas Chapter over the last few sessions to address the shortage of accessible parking places for people with disabilities due to the overuse of eligible Disabled Veteran (DV) license plate users by people without a mobility disability (left, CTD's Chase Bearden with member of the Texas PVA and Senator Campbell.). SB 792 (Campbell) will ensure better availability of accessible parking spaces across the state for both civilians and veterans with a mobility disability and a valid accessible parking placard or plate. This bill received overwhelming support by the Legislature and was signed into law by Governor Abbott.
