Georgia Right-to-Carry Reform Bill Takes Effect Today, July 1!
 
Tuesday, July 01, 2008
 

Today, July 1, House Bill 89 takes effect. This NRA supported measure makes numerous improvements to Georgia’s Right-to-Carry laws and represents the most comprehensive pro-gun reform measure to be enacted in nearly 20 years.

This critical Right-to-Carry Reform legislation will strengthen Georgia’s current laws by:

  • allowing licensed carry permit holders to possess a firearm in any private motor vehicle, while on any publicly accessible parking lot;
  • prohibiting gun dealer entrapment schemes, such as those orchestrated by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg;
  • allowing concealed carry permit holders to carry in State Parks, recreational areas, wildlife management areas, and public transportation;
  • creating a stricter time limit for various stages of the concealed carry license application process; and
  • allowing concealed carry permit holders to carry in restaurants.

Thank you to all of the NRA members who answered the call in support of HB89.  Your action played a pivotal role in the enactment of this much-needed legislation.  Without you this victory would not have been possible.

ALABAMA and GEORGIA:  Management Plan for Eufaula National Wildlife Refuge Released for Public Comment:  A plan for the management of the Eufaula Refuge over the next 15 years is open for public comment until July 21.  The Refuge spans two counties in Georgia and two in Alabama and currently offers hunting for deer, waterfowl, mourning dove, and small game.  Two of the four management options would consider adding a youth wild turkey quota hunt and an alligator hunt in the next four years.  The plan with the management options can be found at http://southeast.fws.gov/planning.  Comments may be submitted to the Refuge at 367 Highway 165, Eufaula, AL 36027-8187 or electronically to [email protected].  For further information, you may call 334-687-4065.  It is important that the Refuge receives support from the area's hunting community for its existing hunt programs and its proposal to increase hunting opportunities in the future.
