The Kansas House Committee on Elections and Governmental Organization will consider House Bill 2811 on Thursday, March 6 at 3:30 P.M. in Room 784 of the Docking Building in Topeka.

HB2811 would prevent the State of Kansas from confiscating, registering, regulating the lawful sale, possession, transfer, transport and carry of firearms during a state of emergency, such as occurred in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.  This bill will protect Kansans’ right to self-defense, even during a declared state of emergency.
