Connecticut Action Alert!

On Monday March 11 the Joint Judiciary Committee will be hearing 7 firearm related bills. There are 5 anti-gun bills being debated and 3 pro-gun bills. We urge everyone that can make it to show up and voice your opinion.

Here are the details of the bills:

Anti-Gun

SB60 would require anyone open carrying to show their carry license to police if asked

HB7218 would require firearms to be locked up in the home when minor children live there

HB7219 would outlaw the private manufacture of any firearm that doesn't have a serial number

HB7223 would require gun owners to install a secure locking device in the vehicles to store firearms when they are not in the vehicle

Pro-Gun

SB940 would allow people with carry licenses to carry in state parks and forests

HB5227 would prohibit municipalities from enacting firearm regulations

HB5870 would allow for the transfer of 'assault weapons' and high capacity magazines through a firearm dealer between two people that have certificates of possession

We would urge everyone to show up at this meeting and tell them to vote no on SB60, HB7218, HB7223 and HB7219 and to vote yes on SB940, HB5227, HB5870. If you can't make it please make sure to contact your legislators about these bills.
