Kansas –-(Ammoland.com)- This Wednesday, February 1st at 9:00 a.m. the Kansas House Federal and State Affairs Committee will hear testimony on House Bill 2074. HB 2074 seeks to repeal current Kansas law that would allow law-abiding individuals to carry a concealed firearm on college campuses for self-defense if the public university chooses not to provide adequate security.
The KSRA opposes this serious attack on our right to defend ourselves and asking anyone who enters a college campus to surrender that right to unknown security personnel.
Come out this Wednesday and tell your legislators that law-abiding Kansans who attend an institution of higher education deserve the same right to self-defense they are afforded off-campus.
We need your voice. We need your participation. We need you, the citizens of Kansas to stand up and make your voice heard.
PLEASE email us if you are attending: mailto:kwade@ksraweb.org
