Injury leave expands for Texas officers

Beginning September 1, 2025, injury-leave coverage includes qualifying peace officers commissioned by the Texas comptroller or Texas Commission on Law Enforcement. Covered officers include rangers and other commissioned law enforcement officers or agents recognized as peace officers under Texas law. The expanded coverage applies only to injuries occurring on or after September 1, 2025.

New pay rules for Texas investigators

Beginning September 1, 2025, commissioned Texas Commission on Law Enforcement officers count as state employees under this compensation framework. The commission can appoint certified peace officers as investigators employed to help carry out its officer-licensing law. It must pay these investigators under Schedule C, the state salary schedule set by the General Appropriations Act. The state auditor’s classification officer must place the commissioned peace-officer position in Schedule C for the biennium beginning September 1, 2025. That classification direction expires September 1, 2027—not the pay requirement—and the law gives no salary amounts.
