ATTENTION NEW MEXICO NRA MEMBERS - IMPORTANT LEGISLATIVE ALERT (4/10)
 
HB 641 UPDATE: NRA-BACKED RIGHT TO CARRY REFORM BILL LANGUISHING IN 
HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTE
 
There are only nine days left in 60-day session of the New Mexico 
Legislature.
 
It's that time of year when alot of back-room negotiations and deals are 
being cut on all kinds of legislation.  Some of that type of activity is 
apparently negatively impacting HB 641, the NRA-backed Right To Carry 
Reform bill that lowers the minimum age requirement for a Concealed 
Handgun License to 21, gives DPS the authority to negotiate reciprocal 
agreements with other states, and makes several other improvements to 
the law.
 
Rep. John Heaton, the sponsor of HB 641, had been told several times 
over the past week that the bill would be heard and voted on by the 
House Judiciary Committee -- only to be told later that it would be 
delayed, again and again.  
 
Unless House Judiciary Committee Chairman Joe Cervantes (D-Las Cruces) 
sets HB 641 on Friday's committee agenda AND actually brings the bill up 
for consideration, there will not be enough time to pass this important 
measure this session.  
 
Please call Rep. Joe Cervantes TODAY at (505) 986-4411 and urge him to 
SET AND HEAR HB 641 in House Judiciary Committee this FRIDAY, MARCH 11.
At this point in time, he controls the destiny of this bill.
