LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - A bill often referred to as the âConstitutional Carryâ law would allow Texans to carry a gun without a license.
It passed in the house and the state senate held a public hearing on Thursday. If passed, it would eliminate the license and training requirement. Everyone who is already prohibited from owning a gun would still be banned.
State and federal background checks to purchase a gun are still in place, but a felon could still obtain a gun and carry it in public.
