Please contact Senator Hinojosa.

Thanks,
Chas.

SB354 (Campus-carry) has been reported favorably from committee, but we need everyone's help getting the required 21 votes to bring the Bill to the Senate floor for debate and voting. If it gets there it will pass, but getting 21 votes is a hurdle that must be cleared.

Please call and fax your Senator and ask them to vote to suspend the rules. Also, everyone needs to call Senator Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa's staff at (512) 463-0120 and very politely than them for Senator Hinojosa's years of service to Texas gun owners, but letting them know that SB354 is of critical importance to gun owners. Ask the Senator to vote to suspend the rules, even if he ultimately votes against SB354. To do otherwise is an insult to responsible CHL's who have a fifteen year track record of being the most law-abiding segment of the Texas population. (15 times less likely to commit a crime than the general public; a record far better than Texas peace officers.) We have earned the right to have this Bill debated and voted on the Senate floor.

Again, be polite and get the message across in a nonthreatening manor.

This call-to-action is critical and time sensitive.

Chas.
