SJR 11, sponsored by state Senator Scott Hammond (R-18), proposes to amend the Nevada State Constitution to preserve the right to hunt, trap and fish. SJR 11 passed both chambers in 2015 and must pass both chambers of the legislature this year in order to be presented to the voters in 2018. The Senate Natural Resources Committee is scheduled to hear SJR 11 on Tuesday, March 14, at 1:00pm.

AB 118, sponsored by Assemblyman Skip Daly (D-31), would allow a member of the military between 18 and 20 years of age to obtain a permit to carry a concealed firearm. Current law requires a person to be at least 21 years of age to be eligible for a concealed carry permit. If persons between 18 and 20 years of age are risking their lives for our country then they should be eligible to acquire permits for self-defense. AB 118 will be heard by the Assembly Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, March 15, at 8:00am.
