National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity- See how your MOC voted: Final Vote Today: Call your Rep!
11/14/2011 9:52:25 AM
National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act Scheduled for House Floor on Tuesday— Contact Your U.S. Representative Immediately!
Thursday, November 10, 2011
H.R. 822—the “National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act of 2011” is scheduled for a vote on the U.S. House floor this Tuesday, November 15. We’ve told you the truth about why the legislation is very good for gun owners and now it is imperative that you contact your U.S. Representative IMMEDIATELY and urge him or her to vote for H.R. 822 WITH NO AMENDMENTS.
As we have been reporting all along, H.R. 822 is a good bill for gun owners. The bill will enable America’s millions of permit holders to exercise their right to self-defense while traveling outside their home states by requiring states to recognize each others' lawfully-issued carry permits, just as they recognize driver's licenses and carry permits held by armored car guards.
Again, this critically important bill will be on the House floor on Tuesday. Please IMMEDIATELY contact your member of Congress and urge him or her to vote for H.R. 822 WITH NO AMENDMENTS.
H.R. 822 does not create a federal licensing or registration system; does not establish a minimum federal standard for the carry permit; does not involve the federal bureaucracy in setting standards for carry permit; and it does not destroy or discourage the adoption of permitless carry systems such as those in Arizona, Alaska, Vermont and Wyoming.
You can find contact information for your U.S. Representative by using the "Write your Representatives" tool at www.NRAILA.org. You may also contact your Representative by phone at (202) 225-3121. Additionally, you may CLICK HERE TO EMAIL YOUR MEMBER OF CONGRESS.
H.R. 822 is a good bill for gun owners. Don’t listen to false claims. READ THE BILL yourself and READ OUR FACT SHEET to get more facts.

Any victory is a victory I guess but HR 2900 is FAR better.
I have some complaints with 882 - but best of luck.

Thanks Brother.....But please know that my good friend Congressman Broun voted YES for HR-822. I'm a LIFE Member of GOA, but HR-2900 didn't have the groundswell of support that HR-822 did. Now it is on to the floor for debate and final vote.
Congratulations to everyone who took the time to call, write, email and visit their Member of Congress. I made hundreds of telephone calls across the country and have been told that the switchboards have been going crazy.....Nicely done!
Keep it up and let's get a positive final vote.
Then it's on to the Senate!

Here's the Tally: See how they voted......Find your Congress Member and call them today to thank them and encourage them to hold true on the final vote if they voted: YES, and if they voted NO, respectfully ask them to change their opinion to YES, for the final floor vote.

Good job Brother Salt.....!
Nothing like "grassroots" advocacy!!
Yes, we who reside "behind enemy lines" have our work cut out for us, but through persistence and with the shield of the Constitutition and force-multipliers such as Heller and MacDonald, we do prevail in some quarters.....My Congressman who happens to be a Pro-Gun Democrat is on board, newly elected Congreewoman Kathy Hochul who is also a Democrat is committed...so we do have some relief....
If you would like to view the proceedings live as they happen....please turn to CSPAN's coverage beginning at 1:15 PM ET.....CSPAN
