Annapolis, MD – The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Maryland joined gun-rights advocates Friday in opposing legislation that would bar the Maryland State Police from issuing handgun permits to people on the federal government’s Terrorist Watch List.
“The ACLU has long been concerned with the Terrorist Watch List and its subset, the No-Fly List, because they are so error-prone and violate basic due process rights,” the civil liberties group stated in written testimony to the House Judiciary Committee.
