We need a governor that will work with President Trump as well for us Texans to get our gun rights back after completion of sentence are even after a short waiting period. Greg Abbott in 2015 granted four pardons in 2016 granted five pardons out of 93 and 2017 he granted 7 out of 96 and 2018 six, this is not fair or good enough we want a change and we will do it at the ballot box in 2020 in November.I really hope you’re on board with us just to name a few states: Alabama, Kentucky, Michigan and Montana restore immediately after your sentence is complete. States like Colorado, Kansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Alaska Minnesota, North Carolina,North Dakota,Oregon and South Dakota has a small waiting time frame. Like I said that’s just to name a few states some of us have committed crimes as a young man or woman in their late teens early 20s and have to live with it the rest of our lives even after we paid our debt to society. Our family and love ones that we did not even have then have to suffer from the mistakes that’s been paid for. For example, we can’t take her kids hunting, we can’t protect our families from a criminal who has a gun and we can’t protect ourselves and this does not seem fair to me or the rest of us. Like I stated earlier we want a change and we will vote for one . By signing this petition we will be one step closer to restoring our Second Amendment rights.

Many of folks have nonviolent offenses, and not even got as much as a traffic ticket, in 20 + years, and are better folks than some that's never been caught

My mistake was literally 25 years ago and I have been a law abiding tax payer ever since. Why am I still being punished. Abbott needs to wake up and look at the real people here instead of just numbers.
