Assembly Bill 1810 was passed by the Senate Public Safety Committee by a vote of 4-2. The bill now heads to the Senate Appropriations Committee for consideration.
AB1810 would establish a registration system, similar to the one currently in place for handguns, for all newly-acquired long guns.

Assembly Bill 2223 was defeated by a 3-3 vote in the Senate Natural Resources Committee.
AB2223 would have outlawed the use of lead shot when shooting or hunting in state-run wildlife management areas. There is no scientific evidence justifying this proposed ban. It was intended only to discourage hunting in
Thank you to all of the NRA members who answered the call and voiced their opposition to AB2223. Without you, this victory would not have been possible.
