    Dear Representative ,

    I am writing you as a supporter of the Constitution of the United States of America to please support Texas (HB) 553 The Second Amendment Preservation Act. This present administration has run amuck and is intent on destroying this country that I so love from the inside out. So I urge you and your colleagues to put into place legislation that will keep the Federal government in check by protecting our second amendment rights and all of our constitutional rights.
    Thank you for all you do for the greatest state in the union.

    Sincerely,
    Eric W. Varnado
