URGENT & CRITICAL REQUEST
Contact your State House & Senate Legislators
and ask them to support LD 1737,
An Act To Clarify Safety Requirements in Acadia National Park
Referred out of the Criminal Justice Committee with a split (6-6) vote on 02/12/10, this bill will continue to keep guns out of Acadia National Park as it has been since the Reagan Administration. It keeps continuity within the State - State Parks follow the same rules. It has no effect on hunters because there is no hunting allowed in Acadia. Don't allow the extremist sects of the NRA and SAM to convince legislators that citizens should be allowed to protect themselves with guns in our National Park.
