Montana Legislature Considering Your Right to Self-Defense!

Please Contact Judiciary Committee Members Today!

House Bill 340, sponsored by Representative Wells, is awaiting a vote by the House Judiciary Committee.  HB 340 is a broad piece of legislation that provides for a number of specific protections for law-abiding citizens to include a provision to protect the right of self-defense by safeguarding victims across the whole legal continuum of an incident in which self defense is appropriate, warranted and necessary, from before anything happens to the resolution of a criminal trial.  

It is important that NRA members in Montana contact the members of the House Judiciary Committee and ask for their support when it comes up in Executive Session.
