California Legislature Back In Action Against Gun Rights

posted on August 29, 2017

Last week the California Legislature reconvened after the summer recess, and already a slew of anti-gun bills are coming down the pipeline.

NRA-ILA reports that the following bills (and one resolution) are currently in the works:

Assembly Joint Resolution 24, a symbolic gesture calling on the U.S. Congress not to pass any concealed-carry reciprocity legislation;
Senate Bill 497, extending the current one-handgun-a-month limit to all guns;
Senate Bill 464, increasing already strict storage and security requirements for licensed firearms dealers;
Assembly Bill 7, including unincorporated areas in the definition of public property where open carry is prohibited; and
Assembly Bill 424, removing the authority of a school district superintendent or equivalent authority to issue written permission for someone to possess a firearm inside a school zone.

Use Your Power!

All California voters should urge their legislators to oppose the pieces of legislation listed above. To email your senators and assembly members, click here.
