The Fort Worth teen curfew ordinance that has been in place for nearly 30 years will expire on Feb 13, 2023 according to a statement from Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker.

Parker went on to say that any potential action by the city council "could be premature and possibly temporary."

This is because a bill has been filed in the state legislature that would repeal the authority of cities to adopt or enforce teen curfews. Texas House Bill SB 603, filed by Sen. Bryan Hughes [R], would repeal the authority of cities to adopt or enforce teen curfews.
