As the days quickly pass in this year’s regular legislative session, I am happy to report that Constitutional Carry bill HB 131, authored by Rep. Danny McCormick, passed out of committee and has been returned to the House of Representatives for a full vote.
Please Take Action to urge your representative to VOTE YES on Constitutional Carry bill HB 131!
This past Tuesday, GOA together with many other Second Amendment advocates, came to the Louisiana State Capitol in support of HB 131, and after a long day of testimony, delays, and more testimony, HB 131 was passed with near unanimous support (8-0-1). Now, HB131 has been returned to the House and is waiting on the Speaker to schedule it for a vote.
As I mentioned, the session is passing quickly and with less than twenty days remaining, if Louisiana is to become the twenty-eighth state to pass constitutional carry, it is imperative that the House pass HB 131 as soon as
