Four Bills will be heard that could affect your Second Amendment Rights on Tuesday, March 19, 2024 at 1:00 PM
Today, before you forget, please send an email to the committee.
Dear Judiciary C Committee,
The following bills will be heard by the committee on March 19, 2024. I ask that you please consider the following.
Please SUPPORT Senate Bill 152.This bill corrects a typographical error in the Constitutional Carry law and changes the word “weapon” to “handgun” in several places in the concealed handgun permit statute to make it more uniform.
Please SUPPORT Senate Bill 214. This bill amends R.S. 14:95.5(C)(2) to allow persons who are carrying a firearm pursuant to the Constitutional Carry law to possess the firearm in a restaurant that serves alcohol. This brings carrying a firearm under the Constitutional Carry law more in line with the concealed handgun permit statute.
Please OPPOSE Senate Bill 203. This bill creates the “Office of Gun Violence” within the Governor’s office. It is designed to perform gun violence research and make policy recommendations to reduce gun violence. It is supported by the anti-gun extremist groups Everytown for Gun Safety and Moms Demand Action. This would become a government funded platform for unconstitutional gun rights restrictions.
Please OPPOSE Senate Bill 256. This bill is this year’s version of a “Red Flag Law” that would allow the government to take away my right to keep and bear arms without charging me with a crime. We have beaten back these efforts several times in the past, and we must do so again.
