Any word on a bill that would drop the "Gun Free" zones for CHL holders?

We can't change the federal "Gun Free School Zone" law, but CHL's are exempt from it anyway. The Texas "Weapon Free School Zone" law is not a stand alone crime. It just increases the penalty for commission of a crime within the zone. Since CHL's can carry handguns, then it has no impact on us unless we commit another crime while armed.

Charles,

I believe that Gari meant bills that would remove 46.035.
