Louisiana: Senate to Consider Restricting Second Amendment Rights of Law-Abiding Adults

On Monday, April 9, the Louisiana Senate could consider Senate Bill 274 which seeks to restrict the constitutional right of law-abiding adults aged 18 to 20 to acquire some of the most commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms for self-defense, target shooting, and hunting.  It is more important than ever that you contact your state Senator at 225-342-2040 and strongly urge them to OPPOSE Senate Bill 274.

This legislation is demeaning to Louisiana’s young adults who are otherwise allowed to vote, join the military, and exercise every other constitutionally guaranteed right.

Contact your state Senator at 225-342-2040 immediately and strongly urge them to vote against SB 274.  To locate who represents you, please click here.  Any legislative proposal that seeks to prevent law-abiding adults aged 18 to 20 years old from acquiring certain firearms deprives them of their constitutional right to self-defense.
