Well, it worked. HB2730, the DPS sunset bill, has finally passed with a number of CHL improvements. I'll post a list of the changes in a separate post. http://www.texasshooting.com/TexasCHL_F ... 92&t=25293" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: What would a Special Session mean to our bills?

"Our bills" won't be part of a special session. The two primary bills (parking lots & campus-carry) are far too controversial and pit friends against friends to the Governor's detriment. Plus, having a bill in a special session allows for a lot more focused opposition and this typically makes it easier to kill a bill than to pass it. As much as I don't want to have to wait until 2011, that's reality.
