Worker Protection Bill Facing Critical Challenge in the North Dakota House

Tuesday, February 15, 2011

Please contact your state Representative today!

Large corporations and special interests are working overtime to defeat legislation that would allow North Dakota gun owners to store their firearms in personal, locked vehicles without fear of being fired. Despite hearing testimony from North Dakota residents about businesses with anti-gun policies, the House Judiciary Committee voted for a “do not pass” recommendation on House Bill 1438. While the vote does not kill the bill, it puts this legislation in serious jeopardy.

Sponsored by state Representative Scott Kelsh (D-11), HB 1438 is an important bill for those who carry concealed or target shoot and must store their firearm during work hours as well as hunters who hunt before and after work. The bill also protects customers who have firearms locked in their private vehicles.

Your urgent action is needed. HB 1438 can be called for a floor vote in the House of Representatives any day. Please contact your state Representative and respectfully ask him or her to support HB 1438. Contact information can be found here.
