Louisiana: Committee Advances One Anti-Gun and Three Pro-Gun Bills to House Floor

Yesterday, the House Administration of Criminal Justice Committee voted to advance four bills: one anti-gun bill, HB 220, and three pro-gun bills, HB 393, HB 407, and SB 101. These bills are now eligible to be taken up on the house floor.  Please click the TAKE ACTION link below to contact your State Representative NOW and urge them to oppose HB 220, and to support HB 393, HB 407, and SB 101.


Anti-Gun:

HB 220 creates the crime of improper storage of a firearm, imposing a one size fits all mandate on firearm storage. While the NRA advocates for the safe and responsible use of firearms, government mandates without consideration for individual circumstances and needs are not the solution. 

Pro-Gun:

HB 393 clarifies the present law recognizing the rights of a bystander or spectator to carry a concealed handgun at a parade or demonstration.

HB 407 allows non-residents to apply for and obtain a Louisiana Concealed Handgun Permit.

SB 101 eliminates some gun-free zones to ensure constitutional carriers and out-of-state concealed carry permit holders who have reciprocity with Louisiana can carry firearms in more areas across the state.
