We subsequently met with Senator Petris and he told us that he intends to "drop" SB 1896. Today, Senator Hart brought SB 1277 to a vote. This is the one gun per month "Virginia style" bill. Senators Boatwright and Johannessen spoke forcefully against the bill during the floor debate. Handgun Control, Inc. was aggressively working SB 1277 but when the "dust had cleared" the vote was 14 "AYE" and 21 "NO". AYE NO NOT VOTING Alquist Bergeson Craven Ayala Beverly Hayden Campbell Boatwright Hill Dills Calderon Peace (Absent) Hart Greene Torres Hughes Hurtt Johnston Johannessen Killea Kelley Lockyer Kopp Marks Leonard Petris Leslie Roberti Lewis Rosenthal Maddy Watson McCorquodale Mello Presley Rogers Russell Thompson Wright Wyman As you can see, we picked up some uncommon supporters in Senators Greene, Calderon and Kopp. Please call the Senators who voted "NO" and thank them. AB 1818 (Gotch) is now set to be heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee on June 28, 1994. The bill would require that all semiautomatic handguns built in California be equipped with a loaded chamber indicator. AB X37 (W. Brown & Burton) - Assemblyman Burton told us today that he will bring up the bill for a vote on the Assembly Floor in one to two weeks. AB X37 would overturn state preemption for firearm laws. Please ask your Assemblymember to vote "NO". ====================================================================== -- ************************************************************ * Ron Phillips crphilli@ingr.com * * Senior Customer Application Engineer * * Intergraph Electronics * * 381 East Evelyn Avenue VOICE: (415) 691-6473 * * Mountain View, CA 94041 FAX: (415) 691-0350 * ************************************************************
