Re: Shooting Range protection with SB766
Yes, but I don't expect to see it on the Senate floor until Thursday; at least that's what I hope happens. There are a few things to do first.O6nop wrote:I see that there are co-authors added and it's placed on the intent calendar.. is that a good thing?hirundo82 wrote:I just got the email alert that a substitute for SB766 was voted out of committee. Any word on what changes with the substitute? It isn't online yet.

Re: Shooting Range protection with SB766
I'm going to Austin Monday to testify in the Senate hearing. Hopefully, this bill will run under the radar, but if we need to hit the phone and faxes, the word will go out. I cannot overstate the importance of this bill and the level of protection it provides to ranges. Texas will have the strongest range protection law in the country if we pass this BillGreybeard wrote:This is a bill that has not got a lot of attention yet I am quite pleased to see it. Thank you Chas and TSRA! A residential developer has 6 lots platted just south of our 465' south property line. I am currently hot and heavy near the end of a 4-year battle with Denton County threating eminent domain hearing over land they need for road expansion on our east property line, or I might well run to Austin to support this bill in the hearing on Monday. (what I read, said March 7). And if I can get loose, I may.

Re: Shooting Range protection with SB766
I'm obviously biased, but this is a much-needed bill! I wrote it in response to a growing number of frivolous lawsuits against shooting ranges. This was also the subject of an article I wrote on the Texas Firearms Coalition website titled Texas Law Must Mirror Public Policy.
