TXGR Legislative Alert News

Texas Gun Rights VICTORY!

Dear Fellow Patriot,

It is an idea whose time has come.

After years of your phone calls, petitions, postcards, and financial support, the fight for Constitutional Carry finally paid off as Texas’ new Constitutional Carry law goes into effect TODAY.

That means law-abiding Texans no longer need to beg for a government permission slip to legally carry a handgun in public — open or concealed! To learn EXACTLY what this means for you, you can check out this FREE Constitutional Carry guide from U.S. Law Shield.

Fellow Patriot, future generations of Texans will look back to you as the gun rights grassroots that won this great political battle for their Second Amendment rights.

For the past 8 years and 4 legislative sessions, Texas Gun Rights members and supporters have been leading the charge by making Constitutional Carry the #1 gun rights issue in the state of Texas.

Since 2013, TXGR has spent nearly two million dollars linking the legislative session to the election season, ensuring ALL legislators and candidates knew pro-gun Texans expected nothing less than Constitutional Carry.

After mobilizing gun owners through mail, email, text messages, digital ads, radio ads, and even TV ads, no other group has come close to matching our firepower in Texas — and it’s helped us tear down the persistent roadblocks thrown up by the Austin political establishment.

Here is a snapshot of what TXGR members helped us accomplish in 2021 alone:

Texas Gun Rights VICTORY!

With Texas finally on board, one in three Americans now live in a Constitutional Carry state!

As exciting as this victory is, our work is not done, Fellow Patriot.

When the legislature reconvenes in 2023, we must continue working to ensure ALL law-abiding Texans are treated equally under the new Constitutional Carry law.

For example, military-aged Texans under 21 will still not be able to carry their handgun under the new Constitutional Carry law.

That means thousands of young men and women are being left defenseless, preventing many young parents from protecting their children.

Law-abiding Texans visiting or living on college campuses must still obtain a license to carry on top of the red tape from their college campus.

But that’s not all.

Lands managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority — including many parks and camp sites — will also still require an LTC to carry a handgun on the land.

Licenses shouldn’t grant special privileges, Fellow Patriot.

Ultimately, ALL law-abiding individuals should be allowed to carry in the same areas where LTC holders can carry.

That is why Texas Gun Rights will continue fighting for EVERY law-abiding citizen’s right to carry in the Lone Star State!

You have made Texas more safe and free and I am proud to stand by you in the fight for gun rights in Texas.

Thank you so much for your hard work.

For Texas and Liberty,

Chris McNutt
Executive Director
Texas Gun Rights

P.S. You no longer need to beg for a government permission slip to legally carry your handgun in public, open or concealed… Texas is a Constitutional Carry state!

As exciting as this victory is, our work is not done, Fellow Patriot.

When the legislature reconvenes in 2023, we must continue working to ensure ALL law-abiding Texans are treated equally under the new Constitutional Carry law.

So please chip in $50 or even $15 to help TXGR continue fighting for gun rights in Texas!
