ALASKA: No-Duty-to-Retreat Legislation Passes Alaska\’s House Judiciary Committee
On Monday, February 14, the House Judiciary Committee passed House Bill 80 by a 4 to 1 vote. This legislation would remove the duty to retreat in Alaska. HB 80 now moves to the House Finance Committee. Under existing law, there is no duty to retreat if a person is in his or her home, business, or on his or her own property. HB 80 would extend the right to use force, including deadly force, for self-defense anywhere a person has a legal right to be. Your NRA will continue to update you on the status of HB 80 as it progresses through the Alaska Legislature.
