2005 House Bill 4962

House Roll Call 488: Passed

To authorize placing two plaques on the state Capitol grounds. The first would honor the Second Amendment’s recognition of the right of individuals to keep and bear arms. This would be donated by the "Brass Roots" organization, and reportedly contains melted-down brass cartridge cases donated by citizens at a 1994 Capitol rally to protest Second Amendment infringements. The second plaque would be donated by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and several other named organizations, and honors the First Amendment’s recognition of the right of free speech, religion, and assembly; and Article One of the Michigan Constitution’ recognition of related rights.
