[QUOTE="audiophile, post: 3317049, member: 32298"]  Communications & Public Affairs January 21, 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: State Rep. Jason Lowe Office: (405) 557-7367 Email: [email]jason.lowe@okhouse.gov[/email] Lowe Files Legislation Concerning Firearms and Public Safety Bills would Repeal Permitless Carry, Ban Long-Barrel Firearms in Restaurants OKLAHOMA CITY -- State Rep. Jason Lowe (D-OKC) has filed two pieces of legislation focused on making public spaces safer for Oklahomans. House Bill 3357 would repeal last year’s permitless carry legislation. “There is no doubt in my mind that if people got to vote on whether firearm safety training should be necessary to carry a firearm in public, where our children are, permitless carry would not be the law,” Lowe said. “This legislation is a product of the hundreds of conversations I have had personally with Oklahomans who don’t want irresponsible gun owners to carry firearms in public.” House Bill 3897 would ban long-barrel firearms from Oklahoma restaurants. This legislation is meant to make these spaces safer and more welcoming to citizens. “Having patrons carry long-barrel firearms into a restaurant isn’t good for business or the mental health of the restaurant’s patrons,” Lowe said. “Oklahomans, especially children, veterans suffering from PTSD, people suffering from mental illness, should have the ability to enter a restaurant in Oklahoma and not feel threatened or endangered by the presence of military-style weapons.” While public safety is paramount, a byproduct of Lowe’s legislation would be a fix to an unintended consequence caused by the passage of permitless carry. “The business owners I have spoken with don’t like being drug into this highly controversial issue,” Lowe said. “When we told store owners that they could decide who could and couldn’t carry in their place of business, we forced them to pick sides and alienate customers. Our government should make laws that help small businesses not hurt them.” -30- Time to call/write/email your reps and Senators. We cannot allow this to happen. The ease in which it moved through the House and Senate both times should tell Rep. Lowe just how Oklahomans feel about constitutional carry. - Mike Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
