Re: Governor Herbert signs SB 36
Oh... I thought the two were interconnected in that they both are aimed at tightening up the rules on obtaining a CHL in Texas. Looking back, I think the guy that brought it up got the axe...LOL. I did find comfort in the post Charles made telling us the (unmentioned bill) is going to get shot down.

Why did you just repost that? Did something about it change?

Why does everybody think this Utah law is so great? Recognition of non-res licenses for Texas residents may not have been the direct intent of the Legislature, but it IS the law in Texas. I got my Texas license in 1996. Once...in 2002 I took the class renewal closer to my expiration and Texas didn't follow the LAW as to 60 day issuance, so I lapsed for about 20 days. I had a Florida CWP at the time and carried on that. Florida is more expensive than Texas and has criteria that are similar for issuance. I strongly support getting a license from your home state, but I believe in the widest reciprocity/recognition possible...even for non-res permits by Texas residents.
TX Rep. Burnam is going to propose all sorts of idiotic bills...they'll go about as far as his TX state income tax bill. I don't like the "in your face" get it cheaper ads by the Utah instructors, but maybe Texas needs to look at why it's $140 for an initial license. There are some good reasons to recognize out of state licenses for residents... Once you move here, it could take close to 100 days to get a CHL even if you go right after it. What if you move here from Illinois and have a (non-res) FL CWP. Should it be instantly invalid when you get your TXDL? I have 5 licenses recognized by Texas in addition to my TX CHL. Should I lose my right to carry when Texas takes longer than the statutory limit to renew my CHL?
Not just 140 for the license... add in 120 + for the classes... ammo for the shooting... +20 and it may be more now that the finger print issue is complicating things. But 280 dollars is a lot of money for a working person!!! Multiply by two for married folks... 560 dollars!!!! That can knock a chunk out of the old budget. For those that say dumb things about priorities, I say, the water mortgage and electric has to be paid. Food for the kids HAS to be bought. This crazy high price is the reason OC folks refer to CHLers as elitist. We have basicly paid for our right to carry. Regardless, the price is absurd! The Utah gave folks who were scraping by financially an alternative.

Re: Utah SB 36
I can't believe this all happened and I am just now finding out. She is not going to like hearing this! The 300 bucks it takes to get Texas is a lot of money for her. Hopefully the Burnham bill fails! It gives her a few years to save up. I get so mad when a few bad actors cause trouble for everyone. I would like to go back and punch that guy at the gun show square in his jaw. 
Thanks Keith... I will watch this thread for further updates, now that I know about it.
