About this file
This is a prohibition clause document related to a Bank Depository Services contract opportunity in Texas. The document establishes requirements that contractors must comply with regarding boycotts of energy companies. The clause applies to any entity entering into a contract with the state and requires contractors to certify that they do not boycott energy companies as a condition of contract award and performance. The contractor must acknowledge understanding of this prohibition and agree to maintain compliance throughout the contract term.
The document serves as a contractual obligation that binds the contractor to refrain from boycott activities targeting energy companies. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in contract termination and debarment from future state contracting opportunities. This provision reflects state policy regarding energy company relations and contractor conduct standards within the procurement process.

Prohibition of Boycott Energy Companies
This form must be completed and submitted with the bid/proposal
Effective September 1, 2021, House Bill 13 amended the Texas Government Code by adding Chapter 809 and Chapter 2274. Chapter 2274 prohibits a political subdivision (city, appraisal district, transportation authority from entering a contract with a value of $100,000 or more that is to be paid from public funds with a for-profit company excluding sole proprietorships with more than 10 full-time employees for goods and services unless the contract contains a written verification from the company that it: (i) does not boycott energy companies; and (ii) will not boycott energy companies during the term of the contract.
Company is defined under Texas Government Code Section 809.001 to mean “a for-profit sole proprietorship, organization, association, corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, or limited liability company, including a wholly owned subsidiary, majority-owned subsidiary, parent company, or affiliate of those entities or business associations, that exists to make a profit.” Section
2274.001 (2) excludes sole proprietorships from the definition of “Company”.
The prohibition however does not apply to a governmental entity that determines the requirements of Subsection (b) are inconsistent with the governmental entity's constitutional or statutory duties related to the issuance, incurrence, or management of debt obligations or the deposit, custody, management, borrowing, or investment of funds.

This section does not apply if Professional (or Contractor) is a sole proprietor, a non-profit entity, or a governmental entity; and only applies if: (i) Professional (or Contractor) has ten (10) or more fulltime employees and (ii) this Agreement has a value of $100,000.00 or more to be paid under the terms of this Agreement.
