Earlier, we alerted you to HB 195, a “constitutional carry” bill that allows all law-abiding citizens in the state to carry as a matter of right -- without having to submit to any obnoxious background checks or waiting periods.
The bill is stuck in committee, as is its Senate counterpart, SB 342.
But the beauty of HB 195/SB 342 is that they would actually accomplish BOTH objectives -- establishing constitutional carry for BOTH open and concealed carry.
ACTION:

(2) Call Senator Joan Huffman’s office at 512-463-0117 and ask her to bring up SB 342. Sen. Huffman is the Committee Chairman of the State Affairs Committee. You can email her at joan.huffman@senate.state.tx.us

Persistent effort is indeed a path to success. A senior executive where I worked had a plaque in his office, and he gave me a copy, because he said I was the most persistent person he knew, and it was the secret to success:
“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.”
I’m not sure who the person was who originated the statement.
