\nThis weekend Knife Rights issued an alert regarding a repeal of the ban on switchblades in Texas. They are asking that those who reside, work, or travel to Texas contact the legislators below urging their support for HB 1862 which would repeal the ban.<\/p>\n

I’m glad to see that Knife Rights is working so hard on the second front for the Second Amendment.<\/p>\n

\n
\nIn Texas, Knife Rights supported HB1862 has been scheduled for a hearing this Tuesday, April 9<\/b>, before the Texas House Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence. HB1862, sponsored by Representative Harold Dutton Jr., will repeal the antiquated, senseless ban on the possession of switchblade (automatic) knives in Texas. Knife Rights lobbyist Todd Rathner is on his way to Austin to testify on this important bill and he needs YOUR help!<\/p>\n

If you live, work or travel in Texas, PLEASE Call and<\/u> Write EACH of the Committee Members TODAY and urge them to vote in favor of HB1862.<\/p>\n

Chairman: Rep. Abel Herrero 512-463-0462 abel.herrero@house.state.tx.us<\/a>
\nRep. Stefani Carter 512-463-0454 stefani.carter@house.state.tx.us<\/a>
