Tennessee Governor Signs “Emergency Powers” Legislation!
Please Thank Governor Bredesen Today!


In another victory for Tennessee’s law-abiding gun owners, Governor Phil Bredesen (D) signed Senate Bill 1597, introduced by State Senator Mark Norris (R-32), into law on Thursday, May 10.



SB 1597 would protect our Second Amendment rights during a state of emergency by prohibiting any government agency from regulating the lawful sale, possession, transfer, transport and carry of firearms, such as occurred following Hurricane Katrina.



Please take a moment today to contact Governor Bredesen at (615) 741-2001 and thank him for defending your Second Amendment rights by signing SB1597 into law.
