The Michigan State Senate will hear the “Castle Doctrine” legislation as early as Tuesday, May 23. This critically important legislation will help the citizens of Michigan in two ways:
- protects your right to self-defense, and ensures you do not have a “duty to retreat” from a violent attacker; and
- gives immunity from criminal prosecution and civil action for the use of such force.
Please call your State Senator at (517) 373-3760 and respectfully ask him or her to support HB 5142, HB 5143, HB 5153, HB 5548, SB 1046, and SB 1185 , the “Castle Doctrine” package.
