HERE WE GO! Texas Democrats Launch MASSIVE Assault on Second Amendment Just DAYS After Historic Election Sweep — Nearly 20 Gun Control Bills Filed on FIRST DAY, Including Firearm Bans, Red Flag Orders, and Private Sale Restrictions!
Just days after Democrat Gina Hinojosa defeated three-term Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and Democrats seized control of the Texas House for the first time since 2002, the party wasted no time launching a full-scale assault on the Second Amendment.On Monday, November 9, 2026, the very first day lawmakers could prefile bills for the 90th Legislature, Democrats introduced a package of roughly 20 (NRA-ILA counts roughly 35 total firearm-related bills, the vast majority anti-gun) sweeping new restrictions.
The 2027 session does not even convene until January 12, yet the gun-control agenda is already on full display.
SB 80 (Sen. Judith Zaffirini): A ban on so-called “assault weapons,” including possession. The bill targets commonly owned semiautomatic centerfire rifles that accept detachable magazines and feature features such as pistol grips. Bill text: capitol.texas.gov SB 80.
HB 173 (Rep. Joe Moody of El Paso) and related bills (HB 606, HB 610, HB 771, HB 806, HB 857): Make it a state jail felony to transfer many semiautomatic rifles (those accepting detachable magazines and chambered larger than .22) to adults under 21. Exceptions exist for law enforcement, military, and some temporary loans, but the core restriction targets military-age adults.
HB 659: Requires dealers to report people who buy multiple guns or magazines.
