Mr. Murtha,
I would like to know if you would support a conceal/carry firearms bill in the State of Wisconsin. I live in New Richmond and am moving to Glenwood City in mid July.
Thanks, Ryan

Ryan,
Thank you for bringing your question to my attention. I am always pleased to hear from and respond to my constituents.
To answer your question; yes, I would support the passage and implementation of the conceal/carry firearms bill. In fact, I was a co-sponsor of the last conceal/carry proposal authored by my colleague Representative Scott Gunderson (R-Waterford) during the 2007-2008 Legislative Session. Both Representative Gunderson and I were planning on pursuing this matter during this past legislative session, but we both agreed that due to the make-up of the legislature, with Democrats in the majority of both houses and occupying the Governor’s office, we would wait for a better time to pursue the proposal again.
It is my intention once again to pursue this issue during the next legislative session. My colleagues and I will determine if the political atmosphere is right for us to pursue such a hot button issue, but be assured that I will continue to keep this issue at the forefront of our agenda and will always stand-up for our 2nd Amendment Rights.
Again I thank you for bringing your question to my attention. If you should have any further questions or comments regarding this or any other state government issues, please do not hesitate to contact me. It is a pleasure serving you in State Assembly.
Best wishes,
John Murtha
State Representative
29th Assembly District
