California: Several Firearm-Related Bills Scheduled to be Heard Tuesday, March 21

On Tuesday, March 21, several firearm- and hunting-related bills are scheduled to be heard in their respective committees. 

In the Assembly Public Safety Committee: 

Anti-gun bill, AB 7 would further extend California’s ban on the open carry of an unloaded firearm while in or upon a public place or public street within a prohibited area located within the unincorporated area of a county. Please use the TAKE ACTION button below to contact the members of this committee and urge them to OPPOSE AB 7.

 

In the Assembly Water, Parks, and Wildlife Committee:

Pro-hunting bill, AB 986 would recognize the many sacrifices our veterans have made by reducing sporting license fees in recognition of their service.  Please use the TAKE ACTION button below to contact the members of this committee and urge them to SUPPORT AB 986.

In the Senate Public Safety Committee:

Anti-gun bill, SB 464 would increase the storage and security requirements of all firearms in the inventory of a licensed firearms dealer.  California already has some of the strictest laws in the country regarding how dealers must store and secure firearms.  This bill simply places more costs and mandates on law-abiding business owners. Please use the TAKE ACTION button below to contact the members of this committee and urge them to OPPOSE AB 464.

Earlier this week, anti-gun bill, AB 424, was passed out of the Assembly Public Safety Committee by a party-line vote.  AB 424 would remove the authority of a school district superintendent, his or her designee, or equivalent school authority to provide written permission for a person to possess a firearm within a school zone.  AB 424 will now move to the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
