Cornyn Talks Gun Rights in Tyler

TYLER — U.S. Senator John Cornyn was in Tyler Saturday to talk about gun rights. According to KETK, the Texas Republican has announced a bill that would allow concealed weapons to be carried across all fifty states. Texans with concealed handgun licenses would be able to travel from Texas to other states with their handguns legally. Right now, 15 states do not recognize concealed carry privileges in Texas’ concealed handgun license. “This does respect state sovereignty, something we feel strongly about here in Texas,” said Cornyn. “We don’t want anybody else telling Texas what to do, and we don’t presume to tell other states what to do.” Cornyn visited Tyler’s Lock and Load Indoor Gun Range, where he took a tour and had some shooting practice..
