Right to Carry to be Voted on in Ohio State Senate
Monday, June 2, 2003
NRA-backed HB 12, sponsored by Representative Jim Aslanides (R-94), will soon be up for a vote in the Ohio State Senate.
HB 12 would allow law-abiding citizens, who have satisfied a criminal background check and taken a training course, to obtain a permit to carry a handgun concealed for personal protection.This is the first opportunity Ohio citizens have had to help pass Right to Carry legislation in ten years.
NRA members need to make sure their voices are heard. Please continue contacting your State Senator by using the Ohio Senate General Info line at (614) 466-4900, and urge them to support Right to Carry, or enter your ZIP code below to find your senator.
