Two Important Pro-Gun Bills Advancing in Arizona!

Wednesday, June 10, 2009

Please Contact Your State Legislators Today!

Thanks to all of your emails, phone calls, and presence at the hearing on Monday, Senate Bill 1113 and Senate Bill 1243 were passed with NRA-backed amendments by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

SB 1113, introduced by State Senator Jack Harper (R-4), would give concealed carry permit holders the right to take concealed handguns into restaurants that serve alcohol.  Senator Harper, the restaurant industry, and NRA have worked to craft new language that will be used in place of the previous proposed posting requirements.

SB 1243, sponsored by State Senator Russell Pearce (R-18), would clarify the statutory definition of defensive display of a firearm. This clarification of defensive display of a firearm is a valuable addition to your right to self-defense.
