I have learned that the Caucus' suggested platform plank has passed in various county and senatorial districts - no definitive list as of yet, but it looks like it will be reviewed by the Platform Committee at the Texas Democratic Party State Convention on June 25-26 in Corpus Christi.
This is not a guarantee that our plank will become part of the 2010 TDP Platform, but this is certainly good news for the Caucus and for all pro-RKBA Texas Democrats.
More info as it develops.

County/Senatorial Conventions - Saturday, March 20
If you are a member of the Gun Owners Caucus or just a like-minded Texas Democrat, hopefully you'll be attending your County/Senatorial Convention tomorrow. Your participation will be very important, as there are several gun-control resolutions that are being considered at Democratic regional conventions throughout Texas on Saturday, not to mention our own platform plank that reaffirms our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.
Good luck to everyone tomorrow!
Good luck to everyone tomorrow!

Towards a pro-RKBA platform plank in the TDP Platform
I want to express my sincere thanks to everyone in the Gun Owners Caucus who submitted our platform plank on Tuesday night. Whether or not the plank was adopted by your precinct convention, your efforts are sincerely appreciated.
The next step is to attend your senatorial conventions. If you were not able to attend your precinct convention on March 2, call or e-mail your Democratic precinct chair and see if he or she has any open delegate spots available for the senatorial convention. It can't hurt.
Participation in the senatorial convention will give you a chance to help move the GOC-TDP platform plank forward towards the State Convention in Corpus Christi this coming June. If there is enough support for the plank among Texas Democrats, it will be written into our state party platform for all the world to see.
I'll be at the State Convention - after all, my job as Chair is up for grabs at the Election Meeting in June. And I hope to see all of you there!
