Ohio: House Committee Voting On Emergency Powers Bill

Ohio: House Committee Voting On Emergency Powers Bill

Today, the Ohio House Government Oversight Committee will hold a fourth hearing and vote on House Bill 325, to guarantee that Second Amendment rights remain protected during emergencies. Please contact committee members and ask them to SUPPORT HB 325.

House Bill 325 declares firearm possession, transportation, carrying, commerce, training range access, as well as hunting and fishing, to be life sustaining, essential activities. Both local and state government authorities are prohibited from infringing upon these rights under the guise of a declared emergency, either on a local or state level. Further, the legislation provides legal recourse for people who experience unjust infringements on these essential rights.

In addition, the committee will hear sponsor-only testimony on Senate Bill 215, the Senate version of constitutional carry legislation. NRA will continue to keep you updated on this bill as it moves in the legislative process.

Again, please contact members of the House Government Oversight Committee and ask them to SUPPORT HB 325.
