Action alert: concealed carry bill now sent to TX House
The concealed carry on campus bill, SB1164 has officially passed the Senate! The vote to suspend the rules was a whopping 30-0. The official vote ended up being 20-10.
Socialized Education?
Few people make this connection, but it’s one that doesn’t get enough attention. How many conservatives hate the idea of socialized medicine? Well, the answer (hopefully) is that every true conservative should HATE the idea of government controlled anything, especially health care (remember: when govt. controls your health, they control everything, but I disgress…).
Concealed Carry on Campus Has a Chance in the Senate
Check out this story I put together for the Texas Insider:
The cutoff for bills in the Texas House left many upset about how the 81st Legislature is turning out. One measure, HB 1893, authored by Representative Joe Driver (R-Garland) would allow concealed carry license holders to carry on colleges and universities in Texas.
Pray for Rep. Kuempel
Please keep Rep. Kuempel and his family in your thoughts and prayers as he recovers from his heart attack from earlier this weak.
On behalf of all of the Young Conservatives of Texas, Rep. Kuempel, get well soon!
From the Statesman:
State Rep. Edmund Kuempel remained in intensive care Wednesday after having a heart attack late Tuesday at the Capitol.
