[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Joe Straus - Republicans Who Support for House Speaker

Posted: 11/22/2014 3:25:21 AM EDT

IF we want gun legislation to make it to a vote then we need to oust Joe Straus who has been an obstacle to the vote of gun legislation.

He also decides the committee assignments.

"Because the Democrat Members in the House are in the minority with only 52 seats, they cannot elect one of their own as Speaker, but have instead unanimously supported Straus against a more conservative Republican"

It is mind-boggling the Republicans cannot find and agree on one of their own.

NRA/TSRA has to start giving "F" ratings to anyone who supports Strauss.They are anti-gun by proxy.

Likewise did the same...

ETA: Also a big thanks to MateFrio for his tireless effort and insightful knowledge provided to keeping us Texans informed on 2A legislation, particularly since it looks like he's now redefining what it means to live in "North Texas" ...
