HB910 on House Calendar for 3rd Reading

[mojo84]

Thanks to all involved.



Just for the cherry on top, another OCT member was arrested today for openly wearing a blue gun in a holster when he tried to enter the capitol.

I realize open-carry has not finally passed yet, but today represents the culmination of two years of work by the NRA and TSRA under some of the most difficult circumstances we've faced in years. Thanks to NRA lobbyist Tara Mica and TSRA lobbyist Alice Tripp for a job very well done!

Chas.

So what is left for it to pass, Abbott signing or more?

Since it is different than the Senate version, they will need a conference committee I think, unless they have some other less formal way of reconciling differences. Then the houses have to vote up or down on what comes out of conference. There are some tight rules on what can be changed in conference.

Only 30.06 was amended with the last amendment..

That will have someone we know frothing at the mouth!

Since 30.07 is being added by this bill, I suspect that was an oversight on his part, rather than a shot at open-carry.

Chas.

Charles, will the amendment be modified for 30.06 and 30.07 to both be included in the downgrade to a class C?

No. They won't do anything to throw open debate again on the 3rd reading. That's something to fix in 2017 and it should be relatively easy since is would be in the nature of a conforming bill.

Let me see. My buddy stuck his hand into a hornets' nest and got stung. I think I'll try it and see what happens.

It's too twisted to be real but it's almost like the OCT group is a brilliant scheme created by the Bloomberg group/money to fight from "inside". A Trojan Horse.

If the 30.06 amendment passes the Senate, it's the most rewarding element of the whole bill for me.

This is a good day for all of us conceal carry members of Texas.

I probably won't OC much, but it will be nice to know that if I miss a 30.06 sign while CCing I don't have to worry about facing a Class A.
Assuming it passes as is.

This bill must now go to the Senate.

Give the PR roadblocks they were handed, it's impressive.

Let us know if there's anything we can do to help this, Campus carry or HB 308 along too.

Same for me. It will be nice to not worry about concealment if I'm out in the country but not having to be paranoid about looking for 30.06's is very comforting.

Same here. I'm always paranoid I missed a sign.

Is that a real possibility? That would be better than icing on the cake!
