***RIGHT TO CARRY CALL TO ACTION: CALL & SEND AN EMAIL***
Here are the names and contact information of the people we've been reaching out to on the Michael's Law Amendment, which would affirm Americans have a right to carry firearms for self defense from state to state and preempt states from infringing this right. We are asking you to please contact them personally. Here is a template you can cut and paste that communicates our message:

Dear Senator,
I am a commercial motor vehicle driver working in the transportation industry. I am also a registered voter. As an integral part of America's Supply Chain, I live and work on the road delivering supplies across the USA. Trucking is considered one of the most dangerous occupations because of the inherent dangers of the road. According to the U.S. Dept. of Labor, over 600 workers in interstate transportation have been MURDERED ON THE JOB over the past decade alone. In the interest of allowing drivers and ALL Americans to defend themselves on the road everywhere within the United States in accordance with the Second Amendment, I am writing to ask you to please attach the "Michael's Law Amendment" referenced below and on www.truckerlivesmatter.com to S. 446, the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 before it comes up for a vote.
18 U.S. Code 926A; (Renamed): Interstate possession, transportation and carrying of firearms...
(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Federal law or any Federal rule, a person who is an American citizen and is not otherwise prohibited by this chapter from possessing, carrying, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm shall be entitled to carry on his person in a loaded, readily-accessible capacity and transport a firearm for any lawful purpose from any place in any state to any other place in a different state in accordance with the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
(2) FEDERAL PREEMPTION The states are hereby preempted from regulating firearms that are transported into, out of, or through their state by a person who is an American citizen and is not a resident of that state, regardless of whether or not the firearm is carried in a loaded, readily-accessible capacity, pursuant to the Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution.
