Chas.
Did the legislature pass all three? That's great news! Has Perry signed them yet?
Just the
Senate, not the House yet.

Thanks for the clarification. I guess I have a different definition of laws passing.

The Senators did their job this term. The Representatives are the ones we need to start finding new jobs for.

That worries me. The version that came out of committee on the 16th was reasonable. I hope they didn't backslide (although it would be a hoot if they added renewal CHLs and not legislators.

)

I was thinking, after reading about SB 1581 today, that this might be a vehicle for some form of campus carry.

That is what I was thinking.
No germane issues, definitely a 1 topic bill (CHL)

There's absolutely no way to amend campus-carry to SB905. It's caption is too narrow and campus-carry wouldn't be germane.

Charles, maybe an amendment making Universities one of the places Legislators would be exempt and permitted to carry.... then an amendment to include CHL renewals or CHLs in general..... German? Yes? Thoughts???

There was lots of time for Doctor of the Day so enough time to pass Campus Carry if they care about our lives and safety.

The Kampus Nationalsozialistischen will say it's not German. They need to disarm the people to rule.

, be careful what you wish for...I know of several people in this forum who are extremely politically qualified, motivated and potentially well-funded to make a run on that gaggle of (insert your favorite term), that could very well make an impact on day one in the next session...
Because they got what they wanted, and there is no real pressure to do anything else for the serfs this session...
I'm not bitter, nor mad that this has happened, we had very little chance to effect the proper corrrective measures this time...So next session will be a little different...In some ways, more than others...
I hope that if there are any participants here that are in Senatorial District 7 that you remember these little things in the next election cycle...
