He can also call multiple sessions.

The Tactical light probably should be the first addition on a home defense shotgun. For home defense situations, target identification is even more critical. Get a high lumen count (125-200) LED light. Even without rails, they can be easily attached to the shotgun. I recommend an LED because they st...

The First Special Session will be limited to a single topic per the governor's own homepage: The special session will consider the following issue: • Legislation which ratifies and adopts the interim redistricting plans ordered by the federal district court as the permanent plans for districts used ...

It looks like HB508 was just killed in the House. Words can not describe my disgust with everyone associated with Senator Carona's amendment and the Conference Committee. That being said, I was really proud of some of those who spoke passionately of the responsibility to honor the rights of constit...

That's awesome. Looks like ammo availability is getting better. Between Friday and Saturday I purchased 650 rounds of 9mm from Walmart. I hope you retained ownership rights to the arm and leg. ;-) I am not very smart but occasionally I am lucky. Back in October, before everything went nuts, I felt ...

Paraphrasing Sen. Kirk Watson of Austin, who heads the Senate Democratic Caucus. “Middle-class Texans are dealing with a lot of challenges, and I’m pretty sure Democrats and Straus wasted a lot of taxpayer money by blocking HB3218 and other gun bills, not to mention opposing necessary belt tighteni...

I sent two emails to the Governor, one regarding the hope of reviving 3218 type legislation in the special session, since the Senate liked its concept so much that they carved it out for themselves in the process of butchering HB 508, and a separate email suggesting that Campus Carry also be added t...
