From the Gun Owner’s Civil Rights Alliance…

Victory in the House!

Last night, the Minnesota House passed The Defense of Dwelling and Person Act of 2011 (HF1467) on a 79-50 vote.

The next step is getting it passed in the Minnesota Senate. We’ll update you when we have some idea on scheduling.

Please take a moment to say thank you the representatives who voted FOR your rights – especially the DFLers who sided with your rights, and most especially, yourrepresentative.
