Moms Demand Action and Everytown are Horrified That Georgia is Considering Constitutional...

Permitless carry legislation would allow a person to carry loaded handguns in public without a background check, dismantling Georgia’s culture of responsible gun ownership.

Permitless carry laws significantly hinder law enforcement’s ability to prevent people with dangerous histories — including extremists and white supremacists with criminal histories — to carry firearms, putting public safety in jeopardy.

States that have weakened their firearm carry permitting system have experienced a 13-15 percent increase in violent crime rates and an 11 percent increase in handgun homicide rates.

Permitless carry has been staunchly opposed by law enforcement across the country, including in AlabamaTennesseeTexasLouisiana, and South Carolina.
