West Virginia: House Judiciary Hearing Campus Self-Defense Act

West Virginia: House Judiciary Hearing Campus Self-Defense Act

Tomorrow, at 9:00AM, the House Judiciary Committee will hold a public hearing on Senate Bill 10, the Campus Self-Defense Act, to ensure that law-abiding adults are not stripped of their right to self-defense when they cross an arbitrary boundary onto a college campus. Please contact committee members and ask them to pass SB 10 without amendment.


NRA members and Second Amendment supporters are also invited to attend the hearing. Click here for more information.

Senate Bill 10 allows law-abiding carry permit holders to carry on the campus of a state institution of higher education. Current state law does not prohibit carrying of a defensive firearm on campus, but institution policy may lead to expulsion or termination of employment. Adults who are officially licensed to carry a firearm for self-defense should not be prevented from doing so just because they seek higher education.

Again, please contact committee members and ask them to pass SB 10 without amendment.
