Tennessee Right-to-Carry Reforms Moving Through Legislature!
Friday, January 18, 2008
Senate Bill 23sponsored by State Senator Doug Jackson (D-25), allows a person who has a valid Right-to-Carry permit to carry a firearm into restaurants where alcohol may be served, as long as the permit holder is not consuming alcohol or is not otherwise prohibited by posting provisions. This important Right-to-Carry reform passed the State Senate by a vote of 24-6 on Wednesday, January 16.
Law-abiding permit holders should not be denied their right to self-defense simply because they choose to dine out with friends or family.
SB23 now heads to the House for its consideration.
