Can we go after the ban on carry in grade schools next session?

I just called all the Senators on committee, 4 seem certainly FOR SB 354, 2 undecided (need calling) and 1 ain't talkin' (against) so 3 (needs calling) still by more people than just lil ole' me (John Woods groupies are calling them)

Below need calling the most:
Joan Huffman (R) - Vice Chair - (512) 463-0117 (currently undecided)

Rodney Ellis (D) - (512) 463-0113 (currently against)

Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa (D) - (512) 463-0120 (currently undecided)
