Constitutional Carry is Sweeping the Nation, Alabama Must Be Next!

Constitutional Carry is Sweeping the Nation, Alabama Must Be Next!

Pennsylvania is just one step away from joining 21 other states that have passed legislation protecting our constitutional right to carry a concealed firearm. Yesterday, the General Assembly sent Senate Bill 565 to Governor Tom Wolf for his consideration.

Help us make Alabama the next state to allow law-abiding citizens to carry handguns for self-defense without first having to go through government red tape or pay fees. 2022 will be OUR year to pass meaningful legislation to defend our right to self-defense! Thank you to Representative Shane Stringer who has prefiled House Bill 6 for 2022.

Please contact your state representative and respectfully ask them to support House Bill 6.

Constitutional carry legislation isn’t for criminals, despite the claims of the bill’s opponents. Rather, it simply puts law-abiding citizens, who are otherwise legally able to possess and carry a firearm, on equal footing by codifying the inherent right to carry a firearm into statute.
