Representative James White filed HB 1142, which provides locals schools boards the discretion to add an elective course offering that would give their high school students the opportunity to gain an appreciation of the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution.
And Texas has a few more keyed up:
HB 700 seeks to allow Texans the option of open carry.
HB 48: would provide CHLs the opportunity to renew their license in a continuous process on line.
HB 223: would allow members of a school district’s school board and the superintendent with a concealed carry license to carry into school board meetings.
HB 553: would take steps to protect Texan’s second amendment rights from egregious actions by the federal government.
HB 627: exempting the intrastate manufacture of a firearm, a firearm accessory, or ammunition from federal regulation.
HB 698: requires that digital or electronic fingerprinting be offered within 25 miles of applicants.
HB 972: CHL on campus
