Utah Knife Law Preemption Bill Passes House Vote
The Knife Rights backed Knife Law Preemption bill (HB 271), sponsored by Utah State Representative Ryan D. Wilcox, passed in the House 52-17-6. Next stop is a Senate hearing. The Senate will be a bit tougher, we need your support.
Utah residents should call, write or email their State Senators urging support for HB 271. You can find your Senators here: http://www.utahsenate.org/map.shtml
HB 271 prohibits a municipality, county, or local district from regulating the use of a knife unless specifically authorized. Read HB 271: http://bit.ly/f1GPNm Rep. Wilcox's bill is modeled on Knife Rights' Knife Preemption Law passed in Arizona last year. Knife Rights, with support from Utah sportsmen's groups, local knife owners and other organizations is working hard to pass H.B. 271.
Without H.B. 271 law abiding knife owners in Utah could face a confusing patchwork of local knife laws and ordinances which could cause an otherwise law abiding knife owner to be in violation. While Utah currently has few knife ordinances, H.B. 271 is critical to keeping it that way.
