Austin, TX.  The Texas State Rifle Association Political Action Committee proudly announces its endorsement of Texas Governor Rick Perry for re-election in the Texas Republican primary election on March 2, 2010.  Governor Perry has a proven track record of standing in support of the rights of all law-abiding Texas gun owners, not only by signing pro-gun bills, but also by speaking out on behalf of gun owners on numerous occasions.

Among the bills Governor Perry signed are the following:

• The "Castle Doctrine Bill" strengthening the rights of Texans to defend themselves
• The "Motorist Protection Act" allowing law-abiding citizens to carry defensive handguns in their cars without having to meet vague and inconsistent definitions of a "traveler"
• "Emergency powers" bill to prevent a New Orleans style confiscation of guns and ammunition from Texans in times of disaster
• A bill to reduce the fees by 50% for obtaining a Texas Concealed Handgun License paid by seniors and our military veterans
• A bill to extend the term of Texas Concealed Handgun Licenses from four years to five, effectively lowering the total cost by 25%

Governor Perry's dedication not only to protecting but expanding the rights of Texas gun owners has earned him an A+ rating from both the TSRA-PAC and the NRA-PVF.  TSRA-PAC strongly urges all Texans to go to the polls on March 2, 2010 and vote for Rick Perry in the Republican Primary.
