Governor Abbott signed HB 1927 today!
ETA: Since I posted this from IPhone as soon as I got the alert, while riding in the car, I couldn’t make a lot message.
I want to thank all of you that made the calls to your reps to help get HB 1927 passed and signed. When CC was introduced in this session my original goal was if we could get it through committee and a vote on the House floor I would have been happy. But because of your calling, the strong support from GOA, and those of us at the Capitol, HB 1927 got voted off the House floor with strong bipartisan support, and bringing the Republican Party together (only one Republican voted NO).
When Patrick said he did not have the votes for CC in the Senate, it was your calls, emails, letters that got us to the point of having all 18 Republicans in the Senate support HB 1927, this included 3 Republicans that were not real strong 2A supporters.
Beside all of y’all that made calls, we also need to thank Speaker Phelan, Matt Schaefer, James White, and of course Governor Abbott.
Of course the real thanks goes out to GOA lead by Racheal Malone and Felisha Bull that provided the leadership to get HB 1927 to Governor Abbott’s desk along with making this session a clean sweep of passing pro-gun bills and stopping all the anti-gun bills.
