At any time on the House floor, HB 2763, a vital bill that helps ensure Arizona’s public ranges remain protected from arbitrary closure, could be brought up for a vote.
Public shooting ranges, like Ben Avery, are important to sportsmen and firearm owners. They are more than just targets; they are critical infrastructure for public safety, conservation funding, and hunter education. We cannot allow local government to bypass the public and close these facilities with a single stroke of a pen.
Use the Take Action button to email your state Representative and urge him/her to protect our shooting ranges by supporting HB 2763.
HB 2763 stops the “quiet closure” of our ranges by:
- Preventing a single official from closing a range behind closed doors. It forces transparency and a rigorous public process.
- Mandating public hearings in Arizona’s most populous counties, forcing the Game and Fish Department to face the community before taking away our ranges.
- Requiring a unanimous Commission vote, a Governor’s Executive Order, and a Joint Resolution from the Legislature. This ensures no range is closed without overwhelming public and political consensus.
