Pass NC Freedom to Carry (Constitutional Carry) H189
Show up in Raleigh on April 24th or Sign the Petition. It's Our Inalienable Right!
Sign this online petition to the NC Legislature to demand that they pass Constitutional Carry for North Carolina Now:
I, the signatory of this petition, do hereby affirm that:
Whereas, the Supreme Court of the United States has three times ruled that the Second Amendment reinforces a fundamental, natural right of individuals to keep and bear arms;
Whereas, no other right enumerated in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights requires governmental permission merely to exercise a fundamental natural right;
Whereas, twenty-eight (28) states have now passed some form of permitless or “constitutional” concealed carry of handguns, leaving North Carolina in a disadvantaged minority;
Whereas, none of the states which have adopted permitless or constitutional carry have experienced the problems predicted by naysayers;
Whereas, the North Carolina General Assembly now has supermajorities in both chambers, rendering them capable of overriding a probable veto by Governor Roy Cooper; and
Whereas, Second Amendment voters were in large part responsible for wins in the 2022 elections which gave Republicans the supermajorities needed to override a veto by Governor Roy Cooper;
I do hereby call upon Republican leaders in the North Carolina Senate and North Carolina House to give prompt consideration via a committee hearing to House Bill 189, “NC Constitutional Carry Act.” Additionally, I call upon all members of the NC General Assembly to support HB 189 by all means, procedural and substantive.
