Today, House Bill 40, NRA-backed castle doctrine legislation, passed in the Senate Judiciary Committee by a 13 to 1 vote. This bill will now be considered in the state Senate as early as tomorrow, June 15.
Introduced by state Representative Scott Perry (R-92), HB 40 would permit law-abiding citizens to use force, including deadly force, against an attacker in their home and any place outside of their home where they have a legal right to be. If enacted into law, it would also protect individuals from civil lawsuits by the attacker or the attacker’s family when force is used.
Please contact your state Senator TODAY and respectfully urge him or her to support HB 40. Contact information for your state Senator can be found here.
