Morales says transits, employers may ban guns
AUSTIN (AP) — Just days
before the state’s concealed-hand-
gun law takes effect, Texas Attor-
ney General Dan Morales has ruled
that transit authorities and busi-
nesses may ban the carrying of
guns.
Morales also said that counties
may prohibit concealed handguns
within county parks, but cities can-
not do the same within city parks.
The concealed-handgun law goes
into effect Friday. At that time, Tex-
ans may begin applying for hand-
gun permits, which won’t be valid
until Jan. 1,1996.
Morales’ legal opinions, issued
Wednesday, were requested by state
Sen. Rodney Ellis and state Rep.
Ron Wilson, both Houston Democ-
rats. Wilson was a co-author of the
concealed-gun legislation; Ellis
