I'm reading the bill and cannot find it. Wasn't this placed in HB 910?

I understood that carrying past a posted 30.06 sign would be a Class C starting Jan 1st. (With the exception of the hospital, nursing home, amusement park, etc)

I cannot find the specific passage. Any help appreciated as a friend is asking me to cite this...

It's in Section 41, page 32 amending TPC §30.06(d) as set out below.

HB910 wrote:(d) An offense under this section is a Class C misdemeanor punishable by a fine not to exceed $200, except that the offense is a Class A misdemeanor if it is shown on the trial of the offense that, after entering the property, the license holder was personally given the notice by oral communication described by Subsection (b) and subsequently failed to depart.

Ok… finally found it. Duh. I think I read over it 3 times without catching it. (Need more caffeine?)

Here's the link and it's Section 42 of HB 910.

Thanks Charles!!
For some reason, I didn't see your post when I posted after you with what I found.
