HB 958 (Author: Rep. Dennis Bonnen) was filed on 01/30/2009 in the

Texas House of Representatives that proposes to enhance Aggravated

Assault offenses against "emergency services personnel" from a Second

Degree Felony (2-20yrs TDC) to a First Degree Felony (5-99yrs TDC).

The current Aggravated Assault offense regarding enhancement only

includes peace officers and "agents of the government", and DOES NOT

specifically include EMTs, Paramedics, and/or Firefighters. Rep.

Bonnen has proposed to include "emergency services personnel" so that

all emergency workers will be included.
