I'm watching her twitter feed when I can, I'm sure she'll announce whatever bill it is.

I'm sure the advocates that, but Charles Cotton noted earlier this year you don't necessarily want to put your "controversial" bills out there early for the opposition to pick apart and use to drum up support. I don't expect to see that bill until the Leg actually convenes.

If you don't take the time to put your tweet links between tags, not only will the tweet not display for some mobile browsers, but the link itself isn't clickable either. Here, I fixed it for you: https://twitter.com/agtripp/status/803428618126954496.

(I had to "quote" your post to gain access to the link.)

didn't know that. Actually at first I had quoted her text and just put in the link for people to click, but when I previewed it the actual tweet came up, so just went with that.

Seems a bit early to file the bill on removing all restrictions on licensed carry

I don't see how that would be possible when it's not the state of Texas that is regulating suppressors.

Texas does indeed regulate suppressors - they are Prohibited Weapons in PC 46.

As Prohibited Weapons, silencers (and SBRs and machine guns) are illegal to have unless registered in the "National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record" or listed as a curio or relic by the DOJ.

If the Texas Leg does not change the state law, and the US Congress removes silencers from regulation by the NFA followed by President Trump signing or allowing it into law( ), then there would be no way for a Texan to legally own a silencer/suppressor.

Since that one she's tweeted about three more times on suppressors. Wonder if Wednesday's bill removes suppressors from regulation by the State of Texas entirely?
