A proposed amendment to the New Hampshire Constitution would prevent the Legislature from passing any future laws restricting firearms ownership, carry, or use of firearms and accessories. This “Constitutional Amendment Concurrent Resolution 8” would essentially mean that the voices and wishes of New Hampshire resident voters, through their elected representatives, would be silenced and invalidated with regard to the subject of firearms.
Your right to participate in the decision-making process through your elected officials on this issue would be denied by this amendment proposed by Rep. Terry Roy. Please contact your legislators immediately to oppose this amendment and remind them to protect your constitutional rights as New Hampshire citizens.
The N.H. Constitution already protects the right to bear arms, but who will protect your right to effect legislation via the ballot box? Call and write now. Go to gencourt.state.nh.us/house to locate your legislator contact info.
