California: Youth Hunting Bill Signed into Law BUT Governor Brown Still Must Hear from You to VETO Several Anti-Gun Bills!

On Friday, September 7, Governor Brown signed pro-hunting bill, Assembly Bill 2151.  Sponsored by Assembly Member Adam Gray (D-21), AB 2151 would help make hunting more affordable for youths by reducing the cost of certain big game tags.    

There are still several anti-gun bills on Governor Brown’s desk and he needs to hear from you today. Please use our TAKE ACTION button below to contact Governor Brown and urge him to VETO SB 221, SB 1100, SB 1177, SB 1487, AB 2103, and AB 2888.  You can also contact the Governor’s office by phone at 916-445-2841, by fax at 916-558-3160 or by mail at Governor Edmund G. Brown, c/o State Capitol, Ste. 1173, Sacramento, CA  95814.

 

Senate Bill 1100, sponsored by Senator Anthony Portantino (D-25), would raise the minimum age to purchase a long gun from 18 years old to 21 years old, effectively denying young adults the ability to exercise their constitutional rights. 

Senate Bill 1177, sponsored by Senator Anthony Portantino (D-25), would prohibit a person from making more than one application to purchase and the dealer delivery of any type of firearm within any 30-day period.  

Assembly Bill 2103, sponsored by Assembly Member Todd Gloria (D-78), would add certain requirements in addition to the already mandated training courses for a citizen to obtain a concealed carry license. Currently, concealed carry permit holders are already required to receive up to 16 hours training prior to receiving a permit and at least four hours of additional training every two years prior to renewal.  

Assembly Bill 2888, sponsored by Assembly Member Phillip Ting (D-19), would expand the list of those eligible to file gun violence restraining orders (GVRO) beyond the currently authorized reporters which include immediate family and law enforcement.  The new list is expanded to employers, coworkers and employees of a secondary or postsecondary school that the person has attended in the last 6 months. GVRO’s can remove a person’s right without due process and not because of a criminal conviction or mental adjudication, but based on third party allegations.

Senate Bill 221, sponsored by Senator Scott Wiener (D-11), would prohibit the sale of firearms and ammunition at the Cow Palace located in District 1-A on and after January 1, 2020.  

Senate Bill 1487, sponsored by Senator Henry Stern (D-27), would prohibit the possession of certain African species of wildlife.  The true goal of the bill is to ensure that a lawful U.S. hunter is not allowed to bring home a hunting trophy—even though the animal was legally taken and the hunter has the approval of the U.S. Federal Government.
