Tks Bob!
Just goes to show you what a Republican majority can get done if they have the resolve. I wish things like this had been accomplished at the National level by the House and Senate when we were able.. Never forget: Sen. Chuck Grassley killed H.R. 38 at the end of 2018 - national concealed carry reciprocity act. It would have let anybody with a state-issued license carry in ANY state.

Abbott has until Monday to sign the Bill.
Apparently he is being pressured by TX Law Enforcement to veto the Bill.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Upon receiving a bill a governor has 10 days in which to sign the law, veto it, or allow it to become law without a signatureThe final version was passed by the committee May 24th, almost three weeks ago, dunno the official date of Gov. Abbott receiving the bill.

Has Abbott followed through with his promise and signed The Bill?

A bill repugnant to the whole idea of having separate states.

Prob'ly he's waiting for a more politically opportune time to sign it and other new firearms-related laws, doing this right after the Austin shooting would just be handing raw meat to the MSM.

A bill repugnant to the whole idea of having separate states. So your drivers license shouldn't be recognized in ALL states? Wouldn't that be equally repugnant?

Interstate driving is so beneficial to the commerce of all states that I think it probably is a legitimate special case. But I do take your point.

Does this bill apply to anyone legally present in Texas or just residents?

"The right of the people KEEP and BEAR arms SHALL NOT be infringed" is FAR more beneficial to a free society!!!!! The only gun control laws we should have would be those that were in place at the time the Constitution was ratified.....that would be none! By the way, a marriage license from any state is recognized by all states. That surely must also be repugnant to the idea of separate states???

I stand well and truly corrected. You are right, I was wrong.

JFC, it's a done deal and nobody in Texas really cares. I get the symbolic significance, but if you understood the previous laws and culture you'd know that nothing will change.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

the only thing that will change for me is I'll carry a 1911 now that I don't have to worry about concealing it, especially in the summer.
