D.C. Personal Protection Act a Top Legislative Priority One of NRA-ILA's top
legislative priorities in Congress continues to be the passage of S.
1082 and H.R. 1288--the Senate and House versions of the "District of
Columbia Personal Protection Act." This legislation seeks to
restore the constitutionally-guaranteed Second Amendment rights of the
residents of the District of Columbia.
The need for this legislation is obvious. While effectively banning handgun ownership for over a quarter-century, Washington, D.C. consistently has one of the highest homicide rates in the nation. "D.C.'s politicians have stripped law-abiding residents of their ability to defend themselves and their families," said NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox. "Passage of the 'District of Columbia Personal Protection Act' will remedy this senseless and dangerous injustice." Please be sure to contact your U.S. Senators and Representative and ask them to cosponsor and support S. 1082 and H.R. 1288. For a list of Senate cosponsors, please visit http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:SN01082:@@@P. For a list of House cosponsors, please visit http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:HR01288:@@@P. You can call your U.S. Senators at (202) 224-3121, or your U.S. Representative at (202) 225-3121. |
