This exact bill? No.

What I dont understand is why they would push this. What the heck would it accomplish?
This is a weather balloon. It's a sacrificial bill by a sacrificial nobody. They use it to smoke out the response. At the same time, they hope to get the RKBA folks riled up about this one horrible bill, in the hopes they could slip something else through without notice while our attention is elsewhere.

Ain't politics lovely?

I hope you wrote your U.S. rep. Your state rep doesn't have a say in this.

(Sorry if that sound patronizing, but we've had people write their U.S. Senators about bills before the Texas House. Just making sure everyone knows where this bill is filed.)
