    Concealed Carry Reciprocity passes House on Senate

    January 2, 2018

     

     The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 passed in the House of Representatives and is now on its way to the Senate.
     

    This horrific bill would require any state to recognize gun permits issued by other states, even if they have different eligibility and training requirements or less stringent restrictions on gun ownership.

    “The NRA’s Guns Everywhere bill will mean more gun violence and more gun deaths,” said GAG member Brigid McGinn. “Federal reciprocity is a direct violation of an individual state’s rights to constitutionally protect its citizens. This is a legislated tragedy waiting to happen."

    Founded in June 2016 after a mass shooting in the LGBTQ nightclub, Pulse, in Orlando that left 49 people dead, GAG believes that gun violence is a public health issue that disproportionately affects people of color, religious minorities, and LGBTQ Americans.

     

    We have chapters in New York, Los Angeles, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Washington, DC. Each year, 38,000 people die in the United States from gun violence, with one-third due to homicide and two-thirds due to suicide.
