Alaska: Senate Committee Hearing on Hardware Ban Tomorrow

Alaska: Senate Committee Hearing on Hardware Ban Tomorrow

Tomorrow, February 12th, the Senate State Affairs Committee will hold a hearing on Senate Bill 203, a broadly written bill banning certain firearm parts restrictions beyond existing federal law. The hearing will begin at 1:30pm local time, and your NRA will be testifying in opposition.

Please contact members of the committee NOW and urge them to OPPOSE SB 203 by using the TAKE ACTION button below!

Senate Bill 203 seeks to implement a state level statute similar to federal law regarding devices that can allow a handgun to fire more than one round per trigger pull. However, this legislation goes beyond federal law and could create complications for persons who lawfully possess parts in accordance with existing laws. Expanding prohibitions beyond federal law is not only duplicative and unnecessary, but can lead to unintended consequences and is a slippery slope towards future hardware bans and infringements on the right to keep and bear arms in Alaska. 

Please stay tuned to the NRA-ILA website and your inbox for updates.
