The Senate Judiciary Committee, meeting in Room 100 of the State House, will conduct hearings on two bills that have already passed the House.  Both of these bills were described in our earlier (January 1) post, http://pgnh.org/legislative_alert_contact_your_state_reps_before_january_4 : HB334 (clarifying and extending state preemption on gun regulation) will be heard at 1:00 p.m.; HB194 (modifying the Fish & Game law about carrying a loaded rifle or shotgun in a vehicle) will be heard at 1:30 p.m. 

Meanwhile, the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee, meeting in Room 204 of the Legislative Office Building behind the State House, will hear HB1246, which allows NH concealed carry licenses to be issued by your county sheriff or the State Police as well as your local Chief of Police, city mayor, or town selectman.
