Tennessee: House Committee Could Soon Hear Self-Defense Legislation

Tennessee: House Committee Could Soon Hear Self-Defense Legislation

As early as tomorrow, the House Civil Justice Committee could hear important pro-gun legislation, House Bill 752.  Please contact members of the House Civil Justice Committee and urge them to support House Bill 752.


House Bill 752, sponsored by state Representative Tilman Goins, would allow a person, who is granted an order of protection and who is not otherwise a prohibited person according to state or federal law, to carry a firearm for 60 days after the initial order of protection is issued. This would allow a person under an order of protection to exercise his or her right to self-defense while allowing time to complete the Tennessee handgun carry permit process.

Once again, please contact members of the House Civil Justice Committee and urge them to support House Bill 752.  Please continue to check www.NRAILA.org and your email inbox for alerts on the latest action items.
