GRNC Alert 05-25-10:
Firearms Emergency No Seizure Bill Reintroduced

HB 2031, NO SEIZURE OF FIREARMS IN EMERGENCY/FUNDS, has been reintroduced at the behest of GRNC. Primary sponsors for this bill are Reps: Mark Hilton (R-Catawba, ****), George Cleveland (R-Onslow, ****), Bryan Holloway (R-Rockingham, Stokes, ****) and Jim Gulley (R-Mecklenburg, ****).

This bill is an effort to prevent another situation like that in King, NC this winter during an ice storm where a declaration of a State of Emergency resulted in a ban on carrying and sale of firearms and ammunition.

ACTION REQUESTED

Thank the sponsors of this bill:

* Mark Hilton, Mark.Hilton@ncleg.net
* George Cleveland, George.Cleveland@ncleg.net
* Bryan Holloway, Bryan.Holloway@ncleg.net
* Jim Gulley, Jim.Gulley@ncleg.net

Sorry, is this a NC State House of Reps Bill or a bill introduced to the US Congress? Just wondering who to write to in order to urge passage.

Thanks

NC General assembly. The ncleg.net email addresses are to the North Carolina legislative email server. The US House of representatives (in the rare cases you can find an actual email address rather than an email form) the addresses are house.gov.
