Pennslyvania Update: “Castle Doctrine” Could Be Voted on Monday, November 15!

Friday, November 12, 2010

Please Contact Your State Representative Immediately!

Speaker Keith McCall (D) announced that votes will be taken on unfinished business on Monday, November 15 starting at 1pm.  Please contact your State Representative immediately and urge him or her to ask the Speaker to bring House Bill 1926 up for a vote and to vote for concurrence on HB 1926.   

HB 1926 would permit law-abiding citizens to use force, including deadly force, against an attacker in their home and any place outside of their home where they have a legal right to be.  If enacted, this law would also protect individuals from civil lawsuits by the attacker or the attacker’s family when force is used. 

It is critical that you contact your State Representative TODAY and respectfully urge him or her to have HB 1926 brought up for a vote AND to vote for concurrence on HB 1926. 

IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU MAKE YOUR VOICES HEARD!
