Most working Texans spend allot of time commuting, often through very bad parts of Houston, Dallas or San Antonio. A company should not be able to tell their employee that they cant defend themselves in transit to and from work.
This is a good bill that passes the TX senate and will likely pass. It forbids employers from prohibiting guns in their parking lots secured in employee's cars.
It says in the article that business owners oppose this bill because of workplace violence. This viewpoint has already been proven false. The mere fact that the employee is in possession of a gun makes them no more likely to harm anyone, the gun doesn't change the person.
I realize that there are business owners that would support this bill as well, these I applaud. If I were in a position to hire employees I would would allow concealed carry. I would even encourage it for sales agents.
