Exactly why I don't think it's a bad idea, however I am not sure if the bill as written is good... need probably a grace period (i.e. 90 days) for people moving in from out-of-state, and perhaps a one-time extension.

I just don't see the logic behind a Texas resident, that lives, works, spends most of his time here, carrying under an out-of-state license... just to by pass Texas requirements and/or save a few bucks on fees?

Although my opinion is that a resident should get the license from the state in which he resides, I don't think this should be made into law. I am sure some Texas residents have good reasons for having out-of-state licenses and not a Texas CHL, but I think it's important to know about the Texas law if you're going to carry here every day.
