We encourage all Texans to reach out to their respective representatives and senators to support this important initiative. Our Purpose The Texas legislature recently passed SB2222 to provide bullet resistant windows for all of the Texas Department of Public Safety patrol vehicles in response to two separate incidences of officers being shot through the windows of their patrol cars.
