Quoted: I got my TLO alert couple minutes ago, going to conference committee, someone must have grabbed Turner (Head Communist) by the nuts and twisted hard, he pulled back his point of order. That was way to close for comfort. Patrick also was a big fan of ‘red flag’ laws and universal background checks. Just what we need in a Republican.

Back on topic from my infatuation with a Joker K Harris - I got an email from TSRA saying that the House had appointed some good pro-gun members to the conference committee, as I would expect Speaker Phelan to do (he's been dreamy this session). Now LTG Patrick will need to appoint the Senate ones - three I think from each chamber.
Then they will hash out what needs to happen next. Not sure if the bill is still subject to a Point of Order challenge, or just needs a majority vote in the House. In any case, great news that it's off to conference committee to have details worked out, instead of having to sent the bill back to the full Senate for a do-over. Once the committee members are announced, I'd suggest contacting them all to voice support for a CC bill that can pass both chambers, and to show how important the bill is. Myself or others on here will post who's on the committee after its announced. Constitutional Carry is on the move once again. Got about 2-1/2 weeks to get it done and onto the Governor's desk. |

Quoted: Sorry, I am tired of trying to explain the problem to you. The Senate would have to remove the amendments they put in, because some of the amendments are not in the scope of the bill, by House rules the bill can be killed on the technicality, before it gets to reconciliation in a conference committee.

If some one wants to take 2 different existing laws and change them, they need to be 2 separate bills. In this case they would start in different committees. CC in Homeland Security, and increasing penalty for felons in Criminal Justice. In the Senate the Senate can do whatever they want, while the House has some pretty strict rules. Do you know why the second and third reading of HB 1927 was only a few minutes apart? Because the Senate ended one day after voting on HB 1927, then started a new day for the third reading and voted again. I believe that only applies if the two laws are not germane.

I think most if not all of us, even the dedicated / lifeless types like me, are learning a lot as the process goes on as to the ins and outs of the Texas legislature. As with most things, if you're not doing them for a living, it's hard to know what can and can't be done, and what's a huge problem and what's no big deal.
Anyway, next steps will be for the Senate in the form of the LTG to pick 3 Senators for the conference committee, and for them to hash out a bill that meets the goals of both chambers, and can pass. Then back to the House and Senate for a vote on the final bill. When it comes time for the final vote, we'll need another round of engagements with the reps, so be ready to holler at both your Representative. e and Senator. We're in good shape on CC, and the other bills are moving through the Legislature as well. This is shaping up to be the biggest advancement of gun rights session since probably the original CHL in 95. Couldn't have gotten this far without all the great work for you all, contacting your reps and being involved in the process. |

House has chosen their conference appointments.
Matt Schaefer (R) James White (R) Terry Canales (D) Ryan Guillen (D) Dustin Burrows (R) Of note, Canales voted n favor of 1927 wi an impassioned speech to close debate. |

He's offered advice on which senators needed some more contact during the run up to the Senate vote, which was helpful.
This post Senate vote week has been a confusing one for a lot of people. Rep. Schaefer (the author of HB1927) had concerns about the amendments the day they were added to the bill. And to be honest, while I've voted for him 5 times like I've said, I don't particular trust LT Gov. Patrick on gun issues. I think he looks upon them as an irritant that gets in the way of either doing other things, or making the Texas Republican party more moderate looking to get more suburb votes - the always in demand "soccer mom", for whom politicans have lusted after since the 90's. That said, unless there's some big train wreck between now and the end of the session, if you close you eyes and hear what Patrick has done, either by design or accident, for CC, you couldn't ask for anything more.

HB 1927 is headed to the Conference Committee for them to "Work Out The Differences"...
https://www.texastribune.org/2021/05/12/texas-constitutional-carry-handguns-legislation/ The Texas House on Wednesday rejected changes the Senate made to a Republican-backed proposal to allow Texans to carry handguns without a license, sending the bill behind closed doors for further negotiations. Before the permitless carry bill can head to Gov. Greg Abbott, who has said he would sign it into law, a conference committee made up of representatives and senators will have to reach a compromise that must get approval from both chambers. House Bill 1927 would nix the requirement for Texas residents to obtain a license to carry handguns if they’re not prohibited by state or federal law from possessing a gun. Among other changes, state senators last week approved an amendment barring permitless carry from people convicted in the past five years of making a terroristic threat, deadly conduct, assault that causes bodily injury or disorderly conduct with a firearm. The chamber also approved an amendment that enhances criminal penalties for illegal weapons carried by felons and those convicted of family violence offenses. Bill author state Rep. Matt Schaefer, R-Tyler, drew cheers Wednesday when he announced he was rejecting the Senate changes. House Speaker Dade Phelan said the House conferees for the committee that will negotiate the bill are Republican Reps. Schaefer, James White and Dustin Burrows and Democratic Reps. Terry Canales and Ryan Guillen – two of the seven Democrats who voted for the bill. BIGGER_HAMMER |

Senate conference members are:
Schwertner (Chair) | Birdwell | Campbell | Creighton | Hughes Seems like a good crew to my hobby lobbyist eyes. No fence sitters who had to be contacted in mass to get their vote for the bill in the Senate, such as Neslon, Bettencourt, Taylor, Huffman, Seilger, or Nichols (all of whom voted for the bill in the end, as did all the Republicans). |

It's my understanding that those 10 members serve as the negotiators to hash out the differences between the bills.

It's the sausage-ist of sausage making - grinding up the two bills and coming out with a version than can pass both chambers. I believe when they are done, they have a final bill, that they goes to each chamber to be voted on. Don't know if one has to pass it first then sent it to the other, or if both could vote on it at the same time.

And for a side comment about LTG Patrick. He's as slippery as a greased eel, as the phrase goes, but does have fantastic hair. Between him and Rick Perry, those two have hair that all men should aspire to have.
I know gun rights are not a big issue for him, probably as I've said an irritant compared to other things he wants to get done, and the image of the party he wants to project. I'd read that he was very taken aback by the 2018 election, and the inroads the Democrats made in this state, and wants to focus on more fiscal and tax issues, rather that the hot button issues like guns, abortion, 8 year olds being allowed to have their packages cut off, etc. I don't think he was a big supporter of open and campus carry in the 2015 session either - that said, both bills passed, and not some weak campus carry bill that the schools could backdoor out of, but a good solid bill. On Constitutional Carry, it hasn't been a priority for him either, and he's had to be pushed to supporting this. As often happens, when you deal with someone their past history paints your view of what their doing now. If you have an employee who's always late with a project, and he's having some issues with a new one, you're ready to chew him out for it being late again, even if that's not the case. All that said, if just look at the movement and actions of the Senate, practically speaking they could not have been more favorable to CC. He set up a special committee to hear the bill, stacked it with pro-gun Senators, had a quick vote in the full Senate, and against all predictions, all 18 Republicans voted for CC, even the 3 who two years ago would not vote for a short term, disaster zone CC bill. Yes the Senate added in amendments - that's what chambers do. I would think if you counted all the bills that either chamber just passed without changing in a full session, you'd still have all 10 fingers in your hands. And for all we know, behind the scenes, the ones added in were vital to obtaining the support of various Republican fence sitters. The concern from many was the amendments were poison pills designed to kill the bill, but that hasn't proved to be the case, as the bill in now in conference committee, and the Senate has sent over 5 very pro-gun Senators for that committee. Even slippery eels can do what they should, either by accident or design. Maybe Patrick, as good politicians do, figured that since he can't stop CC he might as well push it through and get the credit. And if things keep trending in the way they are, he should. Getting all 18 Republicans to vote yes on CC was a huge accomplishment, and one that he should be complemented on. |

How'd the State Affairs committee meeting go? No issues with the gun bills?

Good man, thanks for showing up to the hearing.

Ahh politics. Now Patrick sounds like he's been a been supporter of it all along, and that it's something that he wanted to have passed. If it was, he'd have put it in his Top 20 bills or such.
As the saying goes, victory has a dozen family members, while defeat is an orphan. In any case, it looks like it's moving along quite well. It would be very surprising if it doesn't pass at this point. He'd get the heat for having it get this far, but not the credit for having it pass. |

He'd have paid a political price for it, but could have basked for awhile in the praise from the Democrat media complex (until they geared up to try to defeat him in 22).
