The NRA's priority legislation, "concealed carry reciprocity", would gut New Mexico's gun laws and endanger public safety. Thankfully, we have an ally in Senator Heinrich, who is ready to oppose this dangerous bill and keep our communities safe.
Can you use this form to send him a "thank you" note so he knows we have his back?
Dear Senator Heinrich --
I'm writing to thank you for opposing "concealed carry reciprocity" and protecting public safety in New Mexico.
This dangerous bill undermines our state's rules about gun safety and could allow all kinds of dangerous people to carry guns in our communities. To carry a gun in New Mexico you have to be 21, have safety training, and no recent crimes of violence on your record -- but that's not true everywhere.
In Arizona, no one has to get training, a background check, or a permit to carry a hidden, loaded gun in public. Because of this, New Mexico decided to not let anyone carry without a permit in our state. But this bill would force the weak standards of states like Arizona onto New Mexico's communities.
Thank you for expressing opposition to this dangerous bill. Your constituents in New Mexico have your back.
