In 1999, there was the legislation preempting municipal lawsuits against the gun industry. In 2001, more important unfinished business resulted in the passage of much-needed shooting range protection legislation and a bill to get NRA's Eddie Eagle GunSafe firearm accident prevention program introduced in most, if not all of, the larger school districts in Texas!
