Hmm let's see Perry was George Bush's Lt Gov. Be careful not to buy into the liberal media’s notion the Texas Governor is some lame duck pasty. If that’s the case why, do they want it so dang bad? Why is Bill White pushing for term limits? The answer is SIMPLE. Perry has significantly influenced everyday Texas life over the past 10 years and the liberals cannot stand it! Do you think you would be carrying if Ann Richards or Bill White was Gov for 10 yrs?

See links on the power and influence of the Texas Governor.

Gov. Perry has supported and signed numerous pieces of legislation to strengthen Texans’ Second Amendment rights, which include:

• Creating reciprocal or unilateral agreements with 42 other states where Texans can legally carry a concealed weapon.
• Allowing Texans to defend themselves when threatened in their homes instead of retreating, known as the Castle Doctrine (SB 378, 2007)
• Extended the term of a CHL license from four to five years (HB 225, 2005)
• Cut license renewal fees in half for senior citizens (HB 1038, 2005)
• Preventing the confiscation of firearms and ammunition from law-abiding citizens during a future state of emergency or natural disaster (SB 112, 2007)
• Clarifying an individual’s right to carry a handgun in a motor vehicle (HB 1815, 2007)
• Reducing fees by 50 percent and lowering the age from 21 to 18 on a concealed handgun license for veterans and members of the military (HB 322, 2005)
• Ending the prohibitions imposed by many cities and counties that prevented concealed handgun license (CHL) holders from carrying on public property (SB 501, 2003)
• Expanding the way one can pay for a CHL to include check, cash or credit card – previously only a cashier’s check or money order was allowed (HB 1483, 2005)
• Protecting shooting ranges from junk lawsuits (HB 1837, 2001)

"The Second Amendment right to bear arms is one of our most valued rights for Texas gun owners, hunters and concealed handgun licensees across the state; and it is because of Gov. Perry’s commitment that we are in his debt," said Alice Tripp, TSRA PAC Legislative Director. "With our 40,000 members, we could not have a better friend making sure our rights are protected and our state government is steered in the right direction."
