Requiring education is not a bad idea - the current requirements in TX are that you can fog a mirror and may have to pass a random background check (after receiving your commission). Having notaries actually understand what their responsibilities are would be a good thing.
But, as I've learned since moving here about 18 months ago, it's tough to get Texans to agree to more government control over what they do - so I would expect the chances of these laws passing to be somewhere between slim and none.. |
