OK for those of you who don’t know HB 750 is a bill that would allow students, faculty, and staff who have a CHL to carry inside the buildings on college campuses in the state of Texas. Private colleges are exempted from this.
If you have Facebook here is the Students for Concealed Carry on Campus page that announces the event.

If you don’t have Facebook the gist is that we will be meeting at the Capital Building (exact location TBA) at 9:00 AM on Wednesday March 16. Once there we will talk to as many of the house members as possible until the actual hearing starts at 2:00 PM. We are expecting the hearing to go on until 6:00 PM but it may go later.
I any of you live in the Austin area please try to show up for this (this is not just for SCCC members) and invite anyone who might be interested. I understand that many of you have jobs (I myself asked for the day off) but this law seems to have a good chance of passing although it is certainly not guaranteed. If you can’t show up (or you live in another area) we would still appreciate it if you spread the word to anyone who might wish to come.
Also if you want to contact the committee members:
