Minnesota Legislative Update- 2/15/02

Friday, February 15, 2002

The NRA-backed Right to Carry bill—The Minnesota Personal Protection Act—came one step closer to final passage in the Senate this week when the chamber deadlocked at 33-33 on a motion to bring the bill up for consideration. Last year, the bill failed by a 34-32 margin. Clearly, efforts to bring pressure on those Senators who voted against the bill last year are working. It is critical that you continue to contact your Senator and urge him to vote in favor of the Personal Protection Act when it comes up for a vote again. Because the 33-33 vote was on a motion for consideration, pro-gun forces can ask for consideration again at any time.
