House Bill 1077, the lawful carry bill, previously passed the House by a vote of 63-29. Despite this overwhelming support from the other chamber, the Senate has still not even given it a committee assignment. Please contact your state senator and ask that they work to ensure that HB 1077 receives its assignment to the Corrections and Criminal Law Committee.
House Bill 1077 allows any law-abiding adult who is legally eligible to obtain a carry permit, to carry a handgun without first having to obtain government permission. This ensures that citizens have their right to self-defense without government red tape or delays. It does not affect previously issued carry permits, and allows citizens who still wish to obtain a permit in order to carry in other states recognizing Indiana permits, to do so.
Again, please contact your state senator and ask that they work to ensure that HB 1077 receives its assignment to the Corrections and Criminal Law Committee.
