NRA-ILA GRASSROOTS ALERT
Vol. 18, No. 35 08/26/11
Urge Your Representative to Cosponsor H.R. 822,
The National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act Of 2011
Earlier this year, Congressmen Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.) and Heath Shuler (D-N.C.) introduced vital legislation that will enable millions of permit holders to exercise their right to self-defense while traveling outside their home states.
There is now only one state (Illinois) that has no clear legal way for individuals to carry concealed firearms for self-defense. Forty states have permit systems that make it possible for any law-abiding person to obtain a permit, while most of the others have discretionary permit systems. (Vermont has never required a permit.)
H.R. 822 would make a major step forward for gun owners’ rights by significantly expanding where those permits are recognized.
