Re: UPDATE! Passed SB 1581 Appropriations committee!

Today at 2 pm is the deadline for any amendments which can change SB 1581


Campus carry is very alive

Any Amendments to the bill must be turned in by 2:00 today (Tuesday) and they'll hear and vote on it Wednesday... then it will hopefully be sent to the Governor to sign.

So, today (and tomorrow) are pretty much the last chance to call/fax your Representative and tell him you're in favor of Campus Carry.

-----------------------

IF the House changes the bill ... it may have to go to a conference committee, where some Senators and some Representatives meet and argue in "conference committee ... (That's why it's important to call/fax Representatives ... If in conference committee the 2 chambers can't eventually agree ... the bill dies.)

Rep. Jimmie Don Aycock - (512) 463-0684 - jimmie.aycock@house.state.tx.us
Rep. Drew Darby - (512) 463-0331 - district72.darby@house.state.tx.us

SB 1581 still has to pass two votes in the full House of Representatives, so it’s important to let these legislators know how you feel.

Thank you for your continued support!
