Police across state today, incl. @CLEAT, Dallas Police Assoc and @HPOUTX speaking out against Huffines #opencarry amendment today #txlege

The Dutton form of the amendment already passed the house plus it was explained in the senate (Huffine form) that this does not affect police action with or without the amendment and that it's simply a reassertion of protections provided by the fourth amendment of the U.S. constitution placed into state statute.

However this discussion is better suited for the HB910 thread.

Uh oh, Nevarez getting uppity with Schaefer....

Thanks gents! Rep. Stickland knocking another bill off the calendar.

With the way the speaker is flying through the local, consent and resolutions and the way bills are being pulled, is this payback for the attempted filibuster by the dems yesterday?

I was left wondering the same myself. It seems too easy to delay/kill a bill.

Hey everyone needs their own giraffe headwear to celebrate giraffe day!

I see SB11 is on the supplemental calendar for third reading whenever they decide to get to it. I could see the order going:
1) local, consent and resolutions calendar,
2) catch up on items eligible for consideration (HB910 concurrence vote?),
3) supplemental calendar where I'm sure they will take up postponed business first (3 bills) and then
4) regular order of bills for third reading which puts 2 more bills ahead of SB11.

Of course this is my speculation based on the sequence of events which occurred yesterday in the house.

Alright now I'm out. Good night good folks!

Amendment 1 passed... allowing an "opt out" of public universities with 2/3 concurrence from the university. HOWEVER, they have to opt-out of certain locations on the campus, not the entire campus.

And 5....and 6...

OMG I can't believe my ears! SB11 passed?!?!?!

I heard vote passage of SB11 to 3rd reading and then the shouting ensued...

This is just like intentional fouling in basketball.

Well that POO almost clogged the drain....

Lot's of people meandering about the center of the floor. Wonder what's being said?

Opposition brought up a perceived discrepancy between the bill analysis and bill language.

More POO unfortunately.....
