DALLAS — The Texas Senate is considering a bill that would remove the recent gun ban policy at the State Fair of Texas. Senate Bill 1065 mandates contracts between governmental entities and contractors include provisions ensuring licensed handgun holders are allowed to carry handguns on such properties, except where state law explicitly prohibits firearms. The bill comes a year after the State Fair of Texas changed its gun policy, banning fairgoers from carrying all firearms.
