I know he has plenty of power but at least in theory, he should not be able to block HB910 from moving in the Senate. Some on here have questioned why political capital is needed if Republicans hold majorities. Maybe this is why, I guess he could hold other bills hostage if this one moves in the Senate.

I also said "egos". It's not just Straus. I think we have some middle age children running the show.
Truth.

In fact, I wish open carry was not the issue it's been the past couple of years as it only fuels the unfounded arguments and fears of those that opposed campus carry.

Open carry means nothing to me really, I can still carry concealed. What's important is my children, friends and coworkers being able to protect themselves while at work or in class.
100% agree. Open carry doesn't 'carry' much weight if I'm still restricted in my daily life of where I can carry. I'll take either, but campus carry needs to get done. Original hb308 should get done.

Thanks in advance! :tiphat:
Two questions there: 1) is there anything new; and 2) can I share it. Yes, no.

Sorry,
Chas.
I understand sir! Hoping it is good news. :drool:
It's very good, if everything goes as planned.

Chas.
I withdraw this statement. :banghead:

Chas.
Noooooooo
I still have my hopes up for some movement on Campus and Open Carry. We (card carrying background checked law abiding citizens) deserve the right to both.

Lets just hope that these bills (both of them) get to the floor in some form. I truly don't care if Campus carry is an amendment or a full on bill. Let's just get it moving!
