Texas Legislature Online shows that SB 730 was printed and distributed today.

What comes next?

Check the link above. It shows the bill is out of the committees (Criminal Justice and Public Safety) and on to the House for vote. Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I see that SB730 came out of the Public Safety committee today with a vote of Ayes=5, Nays=0, Present Not Voting=1 and Absent=3.
It looks like we are a little closer...

Hey Charles, how long can a bill stay in committee? I would love to see this bill pass, but what kind of a timeline do we look at for committee work on this bill (or any bill)? I have a link to the Texas Legislature that alerts me on changes in HB1301 and the campus carry bill (don't remember the number) and there has been no updates since March 23, 2009 when it was left "pending in committee."

Yes, it is in committee. I signed up at the above link and get automatic updates. The companion bill (SB730) passed the Senate.
