The Second Amendment March is a celebration of gun rights and a clear message to our legislators that citizens value the Right to Keep and Bear Arms and that we, as Ohioans and Americans, are willing to stand up and be heard. We will be joined by a fine slate of speakers who will speak on these issues from their own perspective and experience. Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray is a longtime supporter of gun rights and has defended Ohio's concealed carry reform laws in court many times as well as being a co-sponsor of an amicus brief in the McDonald Supreme Court case. Ohio Senator Jon Husted is a hunter and gun owner. He consistently votes pro-gun, voted for the original concealed carry bill in Ohio, and voted to override former Ohio Governor Bob Taft's veto of one gun rights reform bill. Representative Seth Morgan is a gun owner and concealed carry licensee. He introduced legislation that would make guns manufactured and sold in Ohio exempt from Federal regulations. Nicole Goeser is a Tennessee gun rights activist who suffered the tragedy of her husband being killed by her stalker after being disarmed by a Tennessee law prohibiting law abiding citizens from exercising their right to bear arms anyplace alcohol is served. Nicole has twice appeared before the Ohio legislature to testify in favor of restaurant carry reform. Dave Yost is a former Delaware County prosecutor who filed an Amicus brief in the Heller case and has a history of standing up for Second Amendment rights. Skip Coryell is an author, gun rights activist and the founder of the Second Amendment March.
Ohioans For Concealed Carry demands that all participants obey Ohio firearms laws with respect to concealed or openly carried firearms. All handguns must remain holstered, long guns should be carried with a sling, and the muzzle must maintain a vertical orientation at all times. Do not enter the capitol or its parking garage with firearms at any time.
Public parking is available in numerous lots around the Statehouse but participants should be aware that the Statehouse parking garage is posted with "no guns allowed" signs.

For busing to the National March, we will run two trips, one originating in Cleveland ($55) stopping in Youngstown and Irwin, PA. A second bus will originate from Cincinnati ($85) with stops in Dayton and Columbus. Buses are scheduled to arrive in Washington, DC around 9:30 in the morning and will depart after the March at 4pm.A lot of attendees have been asking about arrangements -- so we have begun taking reservations! Meals are the responsibility of the attendee. Reservations are non-refundable unless we cancel a bus route due to low census. Seating is limited, so don't delay!
