Tennessee Right-to-Carry Reform Needs Your Help Today!

Tuesday, January 15, 2008

Please Contact Your State Senator Immediately!

Senate Bill 23, sponsored by State Senator Doug Jackson (D-25), will be heard by the full Senate on Wednesday, January 16.  SB23 allows a person who has a valid Right-to-Carry permit to carry a firearm in a place where alcohol is served, as long as the permit holder is not consuming alcohol or is not otherwise prohibited by posting provisions.

Law-abiding permit holders should not be denied their right to self-defense simply because they choose to dine out with friends or family. 

Please contact your State Senator toll-free today at (800) 449-8366 and respectfully urge him or her to support this important piece of self-defense legislation without any amendments.  To identify your State Senator, please visit http://www.legislature.state.tn.us/senate/members/smembers.htm#Find.
