That's incorrect. It was tacked on to another bill as an amendment and passed the Senate. In the House it failed because Strauss didn't let it be put on the Calendar until it was too late for it to pass the House and pass the Senate. Strauss killed every campus carry bill in the Calendars Committee. He'll do it again this year. Campus carry will never pass so long as he is Speaker.Rhino1 wrote:I understand Alan Fletcher will be filing companion bill in House. I'm not a fan of Strauss in any way, but I think this passed in the House last session but failed by one vote in Senate.

Re: Sen. Birdwell files campus carry bill
Let's hope so. And let's hope that the pro side has all of the voluminous facts that support them at hand to use against the expected hysterical reaction of the bozos.katiethompson wrote:http://www.senate.state.tx.us/75r/Senat ... 11713a.pdf
Looks like the campus carry movement will be just fine without Sen. Wentworth. Maybe it'll even pass this time?
