Event Series Event Series: True Texan Tuesdays at the Capitol

Bus Trip to the Capitol – Dallas & Waco

February 4, 2025 @ 6:00 am - 8:00 pm CST

HOP ON THE BUS WITH US!

Please join Texas Gun Rights and True Texas Project for a day of activism at the Capitol during the 89th Session of the Texas Legislature. Once each month, TXGR will host a bus to transport activists from a different TTP Satellite area to the Capitol. Whether you’re experienced, or new at this, it’s a great time together, riding the bus together, and doing important work together.

For this trip, departures will be from Beaumont, TX or Katy, TX. The bus trips are free but you MUST RSVP! Check the True Texas Project Calendar for other dates and details for buses from other areas of the state. There will be one each month of session.

LUNCH & T SHIRT INCLUDED!

RESERVE YOUR SEAT HERE

Please do not reserve a seat unless you are committed to going! Every empty seat is a missed opportunity for another person. And if you reserve a seat and then find you cannot go, contact Fran Rhodes at [email protected] to cancel. Thanks to Texas Gun Rights for generously financing these buses. We can’t afford to have empty seats!

If this is your first time doing activism at the Capitol, don’t worry! We’ll pair you up with experienced people and show you the ropes. We will never leave you alone to figure it out. We love helping citizens engage in government!

See you at the Capitol!
