Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick says he will defy NRA, take lead on gun background checks

AUSTIN -- Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick says he's "willing to take an arrow" and defy the National Rifle Association by pressing Texas to close one loophole...

On Friday, he issued an emphatic warning to fellow Republicans: To survive and avert Democratic takeovers in Austin and Washington, they must act expeditiously on measures ...

He can make noise now to claim "Republicans are doing something!", but the truth is that no law in Texas will change until 2021 at the earliest. That's the next time the legislature meets.

KJV Luke 22:36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
