The legislature only just gaveled in this week and anti-gun legislators and gun control groups couldnt wait to reintroduce their extreme gun ban legislation- an "assault weapons" ban, Senate Bill 5217.Having failed to gain any traction in the 2021 Regular Session, the measure has now been re-filed and scheduled for a public hearing and executive session next week in the Senate Committee on Law and Justice. At the same time, the committee will also consider anti-preemption legislation, Senate Bill 5568. Please contact committee members and strongly urge them to OPPOSE Senate Bill 5217 and Senate Bill 5568.

Senate Bill 5217arbitrarily classifies many popularly-owned semi-automatic firearms as so-called assault weapons and bans their possession, manufacture, transfer, etc. These firearms are widely used for self-defense, recreational shooting,and hunting,and have now been vilified due to cosmetic features. It is extremely important that NRA Members and Second Amendment supporters contact their lawmakers in opposition to SB 5217.

Senate Bill 5568deals with the states preemption laws. SB 5568 will expand gun free zones and permit municipalities to ban the open carryof firearms. These types of measures result in a complex patchwork of gun laws across the state that ensnare otherwise law-abiding gun owners, turning them into criminals.

Again, please contact members of the Senate Committee on Law and Justice, and ask them to strongly OPPOSE Senate Bill 5217 and Senate Bill 5568.
