I have marked them both as "no Reply". If you can get the time zones straight, call them.I'm getting a bit miffed here. My Sen. Hinojosa and Rep Abel Herrero have still not replied to ANY emails or letters :banghead:
Any words of advice? I've considered calling but time zones are kinda wonky.
Call them - leave messages this weekend, follow up at about 10 am Monday after they have had theor coffee.I'm getting a bit miffed here. My Sen. Hinojosa and Rep Abel Herrero have still not replied to ANY emails or letters :banghead:

I did a complete search through the bills also today and found nothing. I set up alerts for keywords if anything is submitted. It was interesting to know that they are making laws on the carry of stunguns.I haven't been able to find any such bill on the legislature website... Either the senator he speaks of stated that he was going to file it and hasn't yet, or there is a delay in bills showing up http://www.capitol.state.tx.us/Reports/Report.aspx?LegSess=81R&ID=senatefiled

Could you please link the stun gun laws? I have been recommending stungun/taser carry as a very viable alternative to handgun carry and if they are going to start regulating that then I think we should be on top of it! Quite frankly, We ought to be loudly opposed to any regulation of stungun/taser carry as that could easily be used against firearms carry!!!!richlub wrote:I did a complete search through the bills also today and found nothing.

Tell him thanks you but ask him to sponsr a bill and if he is not sponsiring a bill, to tell us who is!!I recieved a reply from Able, I will post a copy of the letter he sent me. He is in favor and ranked an A by the NRA.
Is Able first or last name? What district is he in?I recieved a reply from Able, I will post a copy of the letter he sent me. He is in favor and ranked an A by the NRA.
I recieved a reply from Able Herrero District 34. The following was his response
Dear Mr. E
I stand strong behind an individuals constitutional right to bear arms. In my time in the Legislature, Texas has allowed the carrying of concealed weapons as long as we are licensed. As I am sure you are aware, I have supported this constitutionally protected right. As such, I have worked with the NRA and Texas State Rifle Association on issues that are presented to the legislature.
The open carry issue is not an item on the NRA's upcoming proposals for the upcoming legislative session. If properly presented with safety concerns addressed, I would not be opposed to the issue, however, it is currently not something the legislature is expected to consider this next session.
I appreciate your interest in our state politics and I hope you will continue to share issues that are important to you.
Sincerely,
Abel Herrero
Texas state Representative, District 34
