As most of you know PA's fall session opens next week and there are some startling developments coming to light. First off Moms Demand and CeaseFire PA have convinced Rep. Turzai to hold a vote on HB2060. This bill would change law regarding when and how a person under a PFA must turn in their firearms. The main problem with the bill is it limits a person to surrendering their firearms to three entities; a firearm dealer, their attorney or the local sheriff or police. It would also require them to surrender them within 24 hours of getting the PFA.

Secondly Pennsylvania Psychiatric Society has just released a letter to all PA legislators backing HB2227. This bill is a 'red flag' bill that would allow firearms and ammunition to be striped from people that have not had any form of due process. The weapons would be taken and THEN a hearing would happen. A copy of this letter can be seen here.

Everyone MUST Take the time to reach out to your legislators in both chambers and tell them to oppose this bills no matter what. The erosion of gun rights in this state by liberals is in full steam and they must be stopped
