we will have to tell our employers in writing that they have a CHL.

That's not what the law says.

The law says you have to notify your IMMEDIATE SUPERVISOR in writing.

It's a fine distinction but an important one. Unless your company sits down and writes out a policy, there's a good chance they won't spell out what the supervisor has to do with the notification. My supe is a great guy--I'm sure we can work something out.

IMO, the big thing this bill buys us is that it practically eliminates the possibility of companies ACTIVELY searching for guns in the parking lot.

Here's the entire committee.

An email to House Speaker Tom Craddick would help too.

While this bill isn't perfect, we've seen the legislature improve new laws over time in the past. They have to have something to start from.

While some people may not take advantage of the law in their current circumstances, they may be able to in the future (due to a job change or an improvement in the law.) Something is sure better than nothing, and this bill could be the start of something good.
