This week, the Texas State Senate passed Senate Bill 706 sponsored by Sen. Charles Schwertner (R-Georgetown) on a 26-5 vote. SB 706 requires Texas to recognize all valid out-of-state concealed carry licenses. This NRA and TSRA priority legislation would bring Texas on par with twenty other states. Universal recognition of concealed carry licenses is not only a priority at the state level but remains a top priority in congress through H.R. 38. The bill now moves to the Texas House for consideration.
Please stay tuned to the NRA-ILA website and your inbox for update as this critical legislation progresses.
