The following anti-gun bills were defeated: AB 3210 (T. Friedman) - Handgun ban and tax AB 2706 (Caldera) - To overturn state preemption AB 2546 (Polanco) - "Caseless" ammunition ban AB 2517 (Umberg) - Expands the scope for criminal storage of firearms * AB X132 (Katz) - Increased penalties for illegal carry of a concealed weapon SB 1275 (Hart) - Handgun license SB 1276 (Hart) - Ammunition license SB 1277 (Hart) - One gun a month SB 1896 (Petris) - $500 fine if your gun is stolen * SB 1278 (hart) - Domestic violence/firearm seizure * SB X46 (Roberti) - Assault weapon list expansion ( * = Bills that were granted reconsideration. Only SB X46 is apt to come at us again this session.) A lot of legislators fought very hard to defend your Second Amendment rights. There are too many to list but some should be singled out. Two new Assemblymembers, Denise Ducheny (D-79) and James Rogan (R-43) were true to their campaign commitments. Joe Baca (D-62) was a leader for the pro-gun Democrats and was consistently supported by Margaret Snyder (D-25), Sal Cannella (D-26), Tom Connolly (D-77) and Willard Murray (D-52). During the floor debate, Trice Harvey (R-32) and Paula Boland (R-38) led the fight. David Knowles (R-4) gave Caldera a "body shot" during the debate on AB 2706 that he will remember for a long time. These members and many others deserve a "thank you" call. You should also be very proud of the fine work done by the gun lobbyists: Jerry Uphold (CRPA), Kathy Lynch (Gun Shows) and Jim Hearn (GOC). These folks do an excellent job of fighting for your rights. Next week, the fax alert will include all the anti-gun bills that are still being considered by the Legislature and their current status. To everyone who contacted their legislators on the above bills, THANKS for a job WELL DONE!! ====================================================================== -- ************************************************************ * 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 * ************************************************************
