Senate Committee Cancels Hearing on "Castle Doctrine" Legislation!

Last week our summary of the third hearing for Ohio's critical Castle Doctrine legislation included a note that "it is expected that the committee will resume hearing testimony on SB184 next week."

The day has come, but the Senate Judiciary - Criminal Justice Committee has taken this critical legislation off of the agenda for their Wednesday, February 6 meeting.

Indeed, with session days waning, it is likely Senators may not be taking further action on SB184 before next month's primaries.

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!

1) Please help us make an important decision by voting in our online poll:

The Ohio Senate has sat on key pro-gun legislation for a year. Should we endorse friends in the Senate now or wait for action?

2) Please continue to contact the Senate President, and members of the Senate Judiciary - Criminal Justice Committee and urge them to demand their caucus leaders allow action on SB184.
