North Dakota: Firearm Carry Enhancement Bill Passes Senate

Today, April 3rd, House Bill 1588, improving concealed carry laws, passed the Senate with bipartisan support. It will now return to the House for concurrence with the Senate amendments.

Please contact your Representative and urge them to CONCUR with the Senate amendments by using the TAKE ACTION button below.

House Bill 1588 enhances your rights when carrying a firearm for self-defense in North Dakota. HB 1588 removes the obligation of reporting to law enforcement upon any contact that you are carrying a concealed firearm when doing so without a concealed carry permit. The bill also reduces the penalty for carrying at a public gathering from an infraction to a noncriminal offense of $100. Additionally, the bill authorizes the State Board of Higher Education the ability to allow guns on school property and in buildings as well as other positive improvements to the state's concealed carry laws.
