Louisiana: Senate Committee to Hear Constitutional Carry Today

Today, February 20th, at 9:00 AM, the Senate Judiciary C Committee will hear Senate Bill 1, the NRA-backed constitutional carry bill. Louisiana is currently in contention with South Carolina to become the 28th state to allow constitutional/permitless carry. Please contact committee members and ask them to SUPPORT SB 1.

NRA members and Second Amendment supporters are encouraged to attend today’s hearing and support constitutional carry. The meeting details and agenda are posted here.

Senate Bill 1 strengthens the right to self-defense in Louisiana by recognizing the right of any law-abiding adult who is at least 18 years old to carry a concealed firearm without first having to obtain government permission. This ensures that citizens have their right to self-defense without red tape, delays, or fees. It does not change who is eligible to obtain a carry permit nor impact the existing permitting system. People who still wish to obtain a permit may do so for out of state carry and other lawful purposes.

Again, please contact committee members asking them to SUPPORT SB 1 and consider attending the hearing.
