Please make plans to attend upcoming town hall meetings for your State Representative and strong Second Amendment supporter, Betty Brown (R-4).  The events are being hosted by the Texas Conservative Coalition -- the conservative caucus of the Texas Legislature. 

The first meeting will take place on Tuesday, November 3 at 6:00 p.m.in the Trinity Valley Community College cafeteria, located at 100 Cardinal Drive, in Athens.  The second will be held on Wednesday, November 4 at 7:30 AM at Covenant Generations Church, located at 10342 W. Highway 80 in Forney. 

Two key NRA-backed bills did not pass during the 2009 legislative session: a proposal prohibiting employers from enforcing policies against hard-working Texans who store their lawfully-owned firearms in their locked motor vehicles while parked at work, and a measure allowing concealed handgun licensees to protect themselves on college and university campuses.  Rep. Brown co-sponsored both bills, but House leaders failed to set either of them for a timely vote by the full House. 

This is your chance to thank Rep. Brown for her support and to urge her to push House leaders for a floor vote on both issues next session!
