Just received from PGNH:
Two months ago the New Hampshire Joint Legislative Facilities Committee, without a public hearing or a full House or Senate vote, banned guns in the State House and Legislative Office Building. This morning, March 4, State Rep. Jenn Coffey, senior advisor of Pro-Gun New Hampshire, sent the following email message. Note: State Rep. Gene Chandler, former Speaker of the House, is also an advisor of Pro-Gun New Hampshire.
...
In an effort to stop the Second Amendment Community from organizing, the Legislative Administration Committee has suddenly scheduled a public hearing for HB1693 for Monday March 8th at 2pm in the Legislative Office Building room 208!
HB1693 is a late filed bill by Rep. Chandler to strip the Facilities Committee of the power to control firearms, knives, and other tools of self-defense within the State House complex. It also repeals the ban put into effect on December 21st of last year.
It is vital that our community come to this hearing and show in numbers how we feel about the unconstitutional actions of the facilities committee last year by supporting Rep. Chandler! I know this is short notice and some may not be able to attend, and they know this as well which is why we believe this hearing was scheduled with little notice, so if you can not be there PLEASE, write a PERSONAL AND POLITE letter to the members of the Legislative Administration Committee and letters to the editor of your local paper TODAY!
