Re: HB1167

A lot of legislators are taking up the "campus carry" issue this session. A lot of them are taking different approaches. Some bills (i.e., HB 750/SB354) are better than others, but they're all good bills. I'm just excited to see so many legislators so motivated to get SOMETHING done on this issue.

Obviously, I support allowing concealed carry at all colleges and requiring all public colleges to allow it. But even Rep. Taylor's community college/junior college bill (HB 1167) would be a huge step in the right direction.

From what I've gathered from speaking to the TSRA/NRA, they'd definitely prefer to see HB 750 or SB 354 pass, but they support HB 1167.
