Re: Campus Carry -- Where Are We Now?

I'm just an uneducated (regarding the Texas Legislative process) observer, but to me things are looking hopeful. The worry about the house having to vote again on HB910 and the concern about Straus' commitment to bring up Campus Carry in the House are real concerns, but not big ones to me so far. Here's some excerpts from the CBS affiliate in Dallas —

The Senate passed House Bill 910 Friday night, a major step toward allowing the licensed open carry of handguns. Republican Gov. Greg Abbott has pledged to sign the bill into law, which still needs a final vote in the House.

Before the open carry debate, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, who presides over the Senate, said House leaders also promised to pass a bill allowing concealed handguns in college classrooms. A spokesman for House Speaker Joe Straus confirmed the campus carry bill will get a vote before the session ends June 1.


I realize I know less than most on these forums, but I find these sort of articles from a somewhat mainstream source reassuring.
