I am writing to solicit your support of SB 378.

SB 378 establishes in law a presumption that if a criminal forcibly and unlawfully enters into your home, your occupied vehicle, or your business, that they are there to cause you death or great bodily harm.

SB 378 goes on to say that you have no duty to retreat when you are in a place you have a right to be and are not engaged in crime.

Lastly, SB 378 would limit the ability of criminals and their family to sue the victim of such criminal activity for killing or injuring the attacker.

The passage of similar laws in other states has resulted in citizens being able to protect themselves, their families and their property from illegal actions without fear of legal retaliation, retribution or abuse of our legal system by attackers and their families.
