It generally takes some digging.

It's pretty bad when you send a email to your Rep asking them to explain their reason for stepping all over the 2nd and 4th amendment and they don't even bother answering with a generic email.

why would they, they know you will never be voting for them anyways lol

I'd let them know I'll working for their defeat during the next primary or general election unless they can prove a change of heart in supporting the Bill of Rights. (It may not do much good in getting them to change their minds BUT it might help you feel better!).

Yep. I emailed and called both of my rep's offices and never got any response at all.

I'll pay a visit in person to his district office soon.

Straus gave Miller $23,000 last year, he's the man he carries water for.

You should have asked what's social media?

I think that I saw on FB that Gov. Abbott signed the OC and Campus Carry today at a gun range

The official Facebook page for the office of the governor of Texas has not updated their page on it, so I would probably wait a little bit longer to call it
