The Truth
There is a new law in Texas as of September 1, 2003,
but it does not prohibit license plate brackets or holders.

designed to make sure that license place numbers and letters were
clearly visible and not covered or obscured by things such as
stickers or license plate holders.
The fine could be up to $200.
