2025 Legislative Petition

To All Tennessee Legislators and Governor Bill Lee:

I am a resident of the State of Tennessee and am joining in this Tennessee Firearms Association 2025 Petition TFA is preparing this petition to demand that our rights, as protected by the Constitution, be freed from the infringements imposed by state law and provisions of local law such as the November 2024 Charter Amendment in the City of Memphis.

These infringements include permitting requirements, restrictions on where I am allowed to carry to protect my life and the lives of family members, prohibitions on the right to protect my property from looters, laws which place the burden on me, as a citizen, to justify why I have chosen to provide for my own self-defense and laws which treat citizens differently under the 2A depending on whether they are or once were government employees. I also demand that unconstitutional and prohibited local charter provisions, like those recently adopted by Memphis, be repealed and stricken from the public record.

I join the Tennessee Firearms Association and other citizens in demanding the passage of REAL Constitutional Carry in 2025. We are demanding the repeal of statutory criminal traps depending on where and how we chose to provide for our own self-defense. We are demanding the repeal of all infringements on the rights guaranteed under the Second Amendment.

I have added my name to this petition to let my voice as a citizen and constituent be heard. I am requesting that you honor your solemn oath as a public official to honor, protect and defend my constitutionally protected rights.
