All states need a law to thwart Federal enforcement of their crazy suppressor rules. We old folks need all of the hearing protection we can get.

Another bill would thwart enforcement of new federal gun restrictions in Texas, a move intended to target firearms laws proposed by the Obama administration.

This bill (HB1076) was made completely toothless by Amendment #2 which passed with a 82-31 vote in the House. This Amendment prohibited any State funds from being used to fight any rule made by the Feds if any part of the bill was determined to violate Fed law or regulation. So, this bill is for show only. Legislators can say they voted "for" states rights and the 10th Amendment while voting for the Amendment which makes the bill null and void by any Fed action. Typical political stunt for the low information voters.
