2008 House Bill 6279

Place "Brass Roots" plaque on Capitol grounds

Introduced in the House

June 25, 2008

Introduced by Rep. Tim Moore (R-97)

To require a plaque honoring the Second Amendment’s recognition of the right of individuals to keep and bear arms to be placed on the Capitol grounds, except that no tax dollars would be allowed for the purpose. This plaque was created by the "Brass Roots" organization, reportedly by melting down brass cartridge cases donated by citizens who gathered at the Capitol in 1994 to protest federal and state infringements on the rights recognized by the Second Amendment.

Referred to the Committee on Government Operations
