Seven Democrats voted for the bill, according to an unofficial vote total: Terry Canales of Edinburg, who was a joint author; Ryan Guillen of Rio Grande City, another joint author; Harold Dutton of Houston; Richard Peña Raymond of Laredo; Tracy King of Batesville; Leo Pacheco of San Antonio and Eddie Morales Jr. of Eagle Pass. One Republican, Morgan Meyer of Dallas, voted against it.Republican State Representative Jeff Cason put forward an amendment that would have lowered the age for Constitutional Carry from 21 to 18. However, Schaefer and some of his other Republican colleagues opposed this proposal, which led to the demise of his amendment by a vote of 12-121. The bill now has to be voted on in the Senate, which may be harder to pass. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who is in charge of the Senate, has expressed hesitancy in the past about passing Constitutional Carry. In a 2017 radio interview, Patrick said “with all the police violence today we have in our state … law enforcement does not like the idea of anyone being able to walk down the street with a gun and they don’t know if they have a permit or not.” Gun owners in Texas will have to turn up the heat on the Texas Senate.
