OFCC Sues City of Cleveland Heights, Ohio The sign you see here is posted in Cleveland Heights Parks implying possession of a firearm is a crime. On Friday August 12th, 2011 Ohioans For Concealed Carry Filed a lawsuit against the City the City of Cleveland Heights. The litigation comes after many attempts to resolve concerns over laws that Cleveland Heights not only allowed to remain on their books, but also posted signs at their parks that continue to imply it is illegal to be armed. The City of Cleveland Heights has chosen to ignore our attempts at civil discourse. When individuals have contacted them representing themselves as residents of the City of Cleveland Heights their concerns apparently fell on deaf ears. When representatives of the organization have formally contacted the city's legal representation they've been laughed at and hung up on by the Law Director. It is this arrogance and refusal to work with Ohioans For Concealed Carry that has forced us to seek a remedy through the courts.
Our press release follows.
Canton PD Event Leads to New OFCC Legislation When officer Harless of the Canton, Ohio police department came upon a vehicle stopped in the roadway most of us were focused on getting restaurant carry legislation signed into law. What took place that evening has become an international viral video, calls for the resignation of the City Council president, and criminal charges against a man who is clearly heard trying to state that he has a license. Ohioans For Concealed Carry has not just raised thousands of dollars in a legal defense fund, but we've written legislation to resolve this matter that Representative Danny Bubp has stated he's going to introduce this fall

Ohio Senate Bill 239 Introduced PDF Print E-mail
Written by Jeff Garvas   
Tuesday, 16 March 2010 15:37

Today Senators Jones and Schaffer introduced Ohio Senate Bill 239, a pro-gun concealed carry reform bill that in addition to addressing carrying in a Class D establishement or open air arena the legislation also deals with improperly transporting a firearm in a motor vehcile, removing many complicated obligations that limited methods of carrying a firearm - a section of Ohio Law that has created a trap for the unwary and is long overdue to be addressed.   Ohioans For Concealed Carry has been working on a more detailed analysis of the legislation and will update this story shortly with the differences between HB203 and SB239, which is a much more broader approach to permissive carry in a Class D licensed establishment.

This bill has a limited opportunity to get assigned into a committee and have hearings scheduled before Senators head back to their districts for the spring break.   It is very possible that sponsor and proponent testimony hearings could be scheduled before the end of this month.  We encourage our supporters to visit OhioCCW.org this evening for a more detailed analysis of the bill, and contact your Senators asking them to support this legislation.
