About this file
This is an exhibit document establishing certification requirements under Texas Government Code Chapter 2274, applicable to state and local contract opportunities in Texas, specifically for the Federal Legislative Consultant Services contract. The document requires bidders and contractors to complete a written verification form confirming that their company does not have practices, policies, guidance, or directives that discriminate against firearm entities or firearm trade associations, and that they will not engage in such discrimination during the contract term. The certification requirement applies only to for-profit companies (excluding sole proprietorships) with ten or more full-time employees when the contract value equals or exceeds $100,000 and is to be paid from public funds.
The certification is waived for sole proprietors, non-profit entities, governmental entities, sole-source provider contracts, or contracts for which no compliant bids are received. The form requires completion by an authorized certifying official of the company, including the official's name, title, company name, and signature with date. Contractors must verify compliance with these requirements at the time of bid or proposal submission as a condition of contract eligibility.

Prohibition Boycott of Firearm Entity or Firearm Trade Association
This form must be completed and submitted with the bid/proposal
Effective September 1, 2021, House Bill 19 amended Texas Government Code by adding 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 have a practice, policy, guidance, or directive that discriminates against a firearm entity or firearm trade association; and (ii) will not discriminate during the term of the contract against a firearm entity or firearm trade association. The prohibition does not apply to a governmental entity that contracts with a sole-source provider; or when it does not receive any bids from a company that is able to provide the required certification.
Company is defined under Section 2274.001 to mean “a for-profit 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.”
"I, __________________(Name of certifying official), the ____________ (title or position of certifying official) of __________________(name of company), verifies that it does not have a practice, policy, guidance, or directive that discriminates against a firearm entity or firearm trade association; and (ii) will not discriminate during the term of the contract against a firearm entity or firearm trade association. This section 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; and does not apply: (i) if Professional (or Contractor) is a sole proprietor, a non-profit entity, or a governmental entity; (ii) to a contract with a sole-source provider; or (iii) to a contract for which none of the bids from a company were able to provide the required certification.
