NOW IS THE TIME TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN NEW MEXICO!!
I realize that this may not quite be the appropriate place to post this, I'm trying to get the word out to anyone who may either line in New Mexico or even just know someone in New Mexico that believes we should have the right to protect ourselves, our families, and other innocents with a concealed weapon. At present, carrying concealed is illegal.
Representative Lisa Lutz, (R60, Sandoval County) has once again brought a true Freedom to Carry bill to Governor Gary Johnson. This bill emulates Vermont's law, allowing citizens to carry any weapon any place, any way they see fit, as long as they 1) are not commiting a crime, and 2) are not intending to commit a crime. There would be no licensing, no fees, no registration.
The bad news is that this bill can not go before the House unless Gov. Johnson specifically calls for it to be voted on. Please, if you live in New Mexico, and believe that the government should quit infringing on our Constitutional rights, please call, fax or email to the info below and let Gov. Johnson know how you feel!
This Legislative session is already in progress, and only runs until Feb. 16, 2000, so time is crittical!
