Oklahoma: Support Legislation to Prevent Your Taxes from Being Used to Fund Gun Control

Currently awaiting consideration by the Oklahoma House of Representatives is House Bill 1803.  Sponsored by state Representative Sean Roberts, HB 1803 is the House version of the previously reported Senate Bill 386 and would prohibit the use of public tax monies for the funding of lobbying efforts for gun control legislation. 

Again, please click the “Take Action” button above to contact your state Representative and politely urge them to SUPPORT House Bill 1803.

Last night, the Oklahoma House passed two important pro-gun bills, House Bill 2322 and House Bill 1721.  They will now be transferred over to the Senate where they will await a committee referral.

House Bill 2322, sponsored by state Representative Jeff Coody, provides positive reforms to Oklahoma’s current state preemption laws and makes technical changes to better clarify the intent of the law.

House Bill 1721, sponsored by state Representative Greg Brabinec, would end Oklahoma’s unreasonable prohibition on the carry of firearms on public buses.  Current law discriminates against those who choose to use public transportation to travel and prohibits them from being to carry a firearm for self-defense.  HB 1721 would remove that prohibition and allow those with a valid handgun permit to carry a firearm on public buses.

Please contact your state Senator and politely urge them to support House Bill 2322 and House Bill 1721 when they come up for a vote.
