Texas: Don’t let the 2nd Amendment Preservation Act Die in Committee

Texas HB928, Second Amendment Preservation Act, passed out of the federalism committee and seems to be sitting dormant in the Calendars committee.  Calendars is how the bill gets scheduled for a debate and vote on the House floor.  It needs a vote there soon..  With only a few weeks left in the legislative session, your calls are needed now to ensure that HB928 moves forward for a vote!

ADDITIONAL BILL INFORMATION

Texas House Bill 928 requires the state of Texas and all local government to refuse to comply with or enforce a vast majority of federal gun laws, orders, rules and regulations.  It applies to those issued or passed in the past, present or future, providing a strong stand in Texas not just against new proposals, but the status quo.

As Judge Andrew Napolitano has said recently, such widespread noncompliance can make a federal law “nearly impossible to enforce” (video here)
