Repeal Wyoming Gun Free Zones!
A GOA-backed bill to repeal Wyoming Gun-Free Zones was just tabled until Wednesday for a vote in the House Judiciary Committee!
LAST YEAR OUR BILL WAS GUTTED IN COMMITTEE!
This year, HB0125, sponsored by Representative Jeremy Haroldson [R] from Wheatland, was scheduled to receive a Committee vote this morning.
I was in the Committee meeting, and ANTI-GUN forces, including Moms Demand Action and Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety, were there to oppose a common sense bill that lets you exercise your Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
HB0125 was delayed but will receive a full Committee debate on Wednesday, February 20.
GOA is standing strong with Representative Haroldson to allow Wyoming citizens an opportunity to exercise their Second Amendment Rights and not be disarmed and left helpless against criminals and mass shooters.
Haroldson’s Bill would allow lawful concealed carry holders to carry on school grounds in Wyoming and to carry in most government buildings except jails, court rooms, etc.
A valid Wyoming concealed carry license is necessary to get around federal restrictions on school grounds that allow carry with a state-issued permit.
Utah, Oregon, and Alabama already allow unrestricted concealed carry at schools, and Utah has done so for almost 30 years without incident.
Many states including Utah, Montana, New Hampshire, and Idaho allow carry in government buildings like their state capitals.
Wyoming considers itself an example of Second Amendment freedoms, and it is time for Wyoming to remove restrictions that only disarm law-abiding people.
It is well-established fact that gun-free zones are just invitations for criminals and killers to target helpless people.
Please click on one of the take action buttons and demand that the House Judiciary Committee pass HB0125.
GOA will keep you informed and help lead the way on that mission!
Please be watching for more from GOA in the coming days as we monitor THIS AND ANY OTHER LEGISLATION impacting your Second Amendment Rights!
