Arkansas Right-to-Carry Confidentiality Bill Needs Your Help!
 
Thursday, February 26, 2009
 

Please Contact the Members of the House Judiciary Committee Today!

On Monday, February 16, Arkansas Times blogger Max Brantley, jeopardized the privacy rights of every person with a concealed carry permit in Arkansas by publishing a complete list of permit holders in the Razorback State. 

The link to the list was later removed after some protest but on Tuesday, February 24, an anonymous website was created that allows the visitor to search for any Right-to-Carry permit holder in the state.  Both of these sources have been removed at the time of this posting, but this remains a threat for all gun owners in Arkansas. 

In response to this abuse, State Representative Randy Stewart (D-23) has introduced House Bill 1623, legislation that would prohibit outlets or individuals from publishing records in the future that open gun owners up to identity theft and persecution for their Second Amendment rights.  Currently, HB 1623 is in the House Judiciary Committee where a hearing has yet to be scheduled.

Please contact the members of the House Judiciary Committee TODAY and respectfully urge them to support this crucial piece of legislation.  Their contact information can be found below.
