In 2007, the coalition launched a broad campaign against the Tiahrt Amendment restrictions. Because of these efforts, certain improvements were made to some components of the Tiahrt Amendments. Now, the coalition will continue its efforts to remove the several damaging Tiahrt provisions that continue to tie the hands of law enforcement.

Stay tuned for new ads from the coalition’s 2009 campaign…
