Please also contact committee members and ask them to OPPOSE these bills!
Assembly Bill 105 bans possessing firearms within 100ft of polling places. This legislation does not require any intent to disrupt the election process. A person could potentially face criminal penalties for simply traversing within one football field of a polling place, which, as defined, includes ballot drop boxes.
Assembly Bill 245 discriminates against adults 18-20 years old, and further denies them their Second Amendment rights, by prohibiting them from possessing semi-automatic rifles and shotguns. In addition, it also requires gun owners to lock up their semi-automatic long guns to prevent those under the age of 21 years from accessing them, or face criminal penalties. This includes restricting youth from using these firearms for lawful hunting and recreational shooting.
Senate Bill 89 expands Nevada’s prohibited persons categories for certain misdemeanor crimes.
Again, please submit an opinion and contact committee members to OPPOSE these bills.
