| DAILY ALERT FOR Tuesday, February 26, 2019 |

|
||
| On February 26th, the West Virginia state House of Delegates will have a second reading on House Bill 2519 to ensure that law-abiding adults are not stripped of their right to self-defense when they cross an arbitrary boundary onto a college campus. HB 2519 overcame a motion to reject on first reading by a vote of 61-36 on February 25th, and several anti-gun amendments are expected to be offered. |
|
||
| Friday, February 22, was the bill introduction deadline for California Legislature. It is clear that the legislature is set on continuing the assault on law-abiding citizens by attacking our rights from every angle. |
|
||
| On Wednesday, February 27, the House Public Safety Committee will be holding a hearing on two anti-gun bills, House File 8 and House File 9. |
|
||
| This week, the Tennessee General Assembly is scheduled to consider multiple pro-gun bills. |
|
||
| Friday, February 22nd, was the deadline for all bills to advance out of committee. Bills which have advanced will be considered by their respective full chambers for floor votes. Bills which failed to advance have likely been defeated for this year. |
|
||
| On Thursday, February 28, the House Finance Committee is scheduled to consider one of Governor Gina Raimondo’s budget proposals which includes an additional 10 percent excise tax on all firearms and ammunition, raising the total tax to 17 percent. |
|
|
| In a message timed for tonight’s Oscars, the National Rifle Association is rolling out its biggest gun to call on the country to focus on teaching children their Constitutional rights, including the Second Amendment, instead of tearing those rights down in a drive to socialism. |
|
|
| In the most high-profile congressional vote on gun control in years, House Democrats are set to pass a bipartisan measure this week that mandates federal background checks on all gun sales, including private transactions. |
|
||
| This morning, the Maine State and Local Government Committee held a public hearing on Legislative Document 489, which would have allowed noise ordinances to be used to shut down local shooting ranges. At the sponsor’s request and after hearing input from citizens, the committee opted to protect Maine’s sport shooting ranges and voted unanimously “ought not to pass” in committee, effectively killing the bill. |
|
||
| On Wednesday, the Oklahoma Senate is scheduled to vote on Constitutional Carry Legislation, House Bill 2597. |
