I spent many hours in Maryland working to defend and preserve our rights mentioned in the Second Amendment. I learned there the importance of individual citizens taking part in the legislative process, both to help shepherd good bills through to passage and to effectively block bills which threaten our rights. It took a bit of effort and working with more experienced folks to find a path through the maze of a bill's journey into law.
I was expecting to find the same learning curve here in my new Texas home. I was very happily surprised to learn that Rachel Malone, the new Texas director for Gun Owners of America, is planning a series of legislative training sessions throughout the state. These two to three hour sessions will cover:
- the legislative process
- how to track bills and topics
- how to read and understand bills
- chokepoints and pressure points
- interacting with legislators
- navigating committee hearings
- preparing testimony
- delivering testimony
What do you care about? Guns / Constitutional Carry? Maybe other things also? Come to this training and Rachel will show you how to make it happen.
