SB354, Campus Carry, passed out of the Criminal Justice committee yesterday with a 4-2 vote. It will now be set for a floor debate and vote before the entire Texas Senate. Two possibilities now exist: First is a vote in each chamber of the house and senate with a conference committee afterward as the two bills are different or Second, aligning the two bills before they go to each chamber. The major difference is date of effect with the house version becoming law 1 Sep 2011 and the senate version 1 Sep 2012.

Effective dates always make me laugh because it lays bare the evil nature and absurdity of the state. 11:59 pm: FELON. 12:00 AM: Not a crime!
TX, FL, and OK have also introduced legalizing Open Carry.
