Senate Joint Resolution 28, sponsored by Lowe, expresses support for the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act (H.R. 38) currently pending in the 119th U.S. Congress. This bipartisan legislation aims to establish nationwide reciprocity for concealed carry license holders and residents of states with Constitutional Carry laws, allowing individuals to carry concealed handguns across state lines without the fear of conflicting state regulations. The resolution emphasizes that the right to bear arms should not be restricted by state boundaries and that law-abiding citizens should be able to travel freely while exercising their Second Amendment rights.
The resolution highlights the broad support for the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, noting that it has garnered over 120 co-sponsors and has previously passed the U.S. House of Representatives with bipartisan backing. It also mentions President Donald Trump's commitment to signing such legislation into law. The Tennessee General Assembly urges the passage of this act to protect the rights of its citizens and plans to send certified copies of the resolution to key federal officials and members of Tennessee's congressional delegation.
