Wisconsin: The 2011 Personal Protection Act Has Arrived

The good citizens of Wisconsin have been denied their right to self-defense for too long and the time has now come to make the Personal Protection Act a reality!  It is time that Wisconsin joins Free America and the 48 other states with concealed carry laws. The bills have been circulated for sponsorship and it is critical that you contact your state Representative and state Senator to urge them to cosponsor this legislation.

There are two bills being introduced in the 2011 legislative session that allow Wisconsinites to carry concealed weapons for personal protection.  The first is known as “permitless carry” and it simply eliminates the current prohibition against law-abiding citizens carrying concealed firearms.  Many citizens already carry openly and this will allow them to conceal their firearms.  It also eliminates the “cased and unloaded” requirement for handguns in motor vehicles.  State Senator Pam Galloway (R-Wausau) has introduced this bill in the Senate and there is currently no companion bill in the Assembly.  Its designation before assigned a bill number is LRB 2007 and both senators and representatives are able to cosponsor it.

The second is a “shall issue” carry license bill that allows Wisconsinites to obtain a license from the state Department of Justice (DOJ) in order to carry a concealed weapon.  This license bill offers some additional benefits. Read more
