Kelly Myers’ Timestamps:
0:02:17: HB 1034: Indecent Displays by Incarcerated Individuals. There aren’t many bills as rough to sit through as this one. The title is misleading, it’s far beyond that. The testimony was eye-opening. It is not safe for work, not safe for children. If you’re an adult who is not at work, give it a look.
0:47:45: HB 1543: Vigo County Courts.
0:55:15: HB 1319: Elkhart County Courts. No testimony, less than 2 minutes on this one.
0:56:50: HB 1137 Expungement of Red Flag Law Records.
Rep Ben Smaltz (who authored Constitutional Carry in 2022) introduced the bill.
1:04:55: Guy Relford (2A Project)
1:15:10: ISRPA President Charlie Hiltunin (Testifying on behalf of the NRA)
1:15:46: Greg Cantor (testifying on behalf of himself.) Greg testified on several bills last year, it’s good to have him on the team.
1:16:45: Kelly Myers (ISRPA)
