Texas: Committee to Consider Self-Defense Protections on Publicly Owned Property

Tomorrow, the Texas Senate State Affairs Committee will hear Senate Bill 1065, prohibiting lessees of publicly owned property from restricting your right to self-defense. Use the take action button below to contact the committee and urge them to support SB 1065.

SB 1065 prohibits lessees of publicly owned property from creating gun-free zones. SB 1065 secures this protection by requiring the government entity controlling the property to include in all contracts a provision that expressly prohibits restrictions that would prevent an individual who is licensed to carry a concealed firearm from doing so.

Please stay tuned to the NRA-ILA website and your inbox for update as this bills progress.
