On Monday, September 23, at 1:00 p.m., the Maryland General Assembly Joint Committee on Administrative, Executive & Legislative Review (AELR) will hold a hearing to review emergency regulations proposed by the Maryland State Police (MSP) to implement the provisions of Senate Bill 281. This hearing will take place in the Joint Hearing Room in the Department of Legislative Services building located at 90 State Circle in Annapolis.

You are encouraged to attend and speak against any proposed regulations that will infringe upon your Right to Keep and Bear Arms.  For those who wish to testify, a sign-in sheet will be available at 11:00 a.m. in the Joint Hearing Room.  If you wish to submit written testimony, 25 copies should be sent to the AELR Committee by Friday, September 20th, or brought to the Department of Legislative Services building, Room 110, by 11:00 a.m. on September 23.  Please keep in mind that testimony at this hearing will be strictly limited to the content of the regulations, not SB 281 itself.  Click here to view more details.

If you are able, please attend a gathering of Second Amendment supporters at 11:00 a.m. on Lawyers’ Mall in Annapolis before this public hearing. Pro-gun state legislators and activists will provide updates and information at this event on the continuing fight for your rights in Maryland.

Your NRA-ILA will continue to keep you updated as more information becomes available.
