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.

Written by Jeff Garvas
Your Ohio License to Carry a Concealed Handgun is now recognized in the State of Louisiana, and vice versa, thanks to an agreement signed between the two states. Ohioans who obtain a license to carry now have reciprocity with twenty one states, in addition to some states that simply recognize your right to carry.

The agreement is effective immediately. Residents of either state should remember that the law which prevails in the State that you are in is the law that you must follow when armed or in the unlikely event that you must use deadly force. You must know the law and you must obey the law of the jurisdiction that you're in.

You can read the actual signed agreement on the Ohio Attorney General's Website
