Texas House passes handgun bill despite Senate rejection
The Texas House approved a handgun rights bill on a voice vote while the Senate defeated it 23 to 8, citing a proposed statewide nonbinding referendum two months after the measure would take effect. Senator Leedom urged voter input, but Patterson called the idea a hoax, and conference committee talks will shape final language.
