Governor Tomblin Issues Statement on the Signing of Senate Bill 317
Press Release
Issues: Guns
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin today issued the following statement regarding the signing of Senate Bill 317.
"This evening, I signed Senate Bill 317 because I support our 2nd Amendment rights, and I also see the need for uniform and consistent gun laws throughout the state. I believe this legislation will give municipalities clarity for regulating firearms in their facilities.
I understand the concern of those who have voiced opinions about challenges within the bill related to municipally-owned recreational centers. I will continue to work with local and state officials to address those concerns."
