| DAILY ALERT FOR Wednesday, February 27, 2019 |

|
|
| A group of House Republicans gathered Tuesday on Capitol Hill to express their anger over two bills proposed by their Democratic colleagues that, if passed, would drastically tighten federal gun laws. The Republican lawmakers, who were joined by a group of Second Amendment supporters, lambasted the two bills – HR 8 and HR 1112 – as “ineffective” and far overreaching measures that would ultimately lead to guns being confiscated from lawful owners. |
|
|
| Gun control advocates often contend that more gun deaths occur when guns are abundant in society. The statistics they use to make the case are not persuasive. |
|
|
| Today firearm owners from across the state testified in Annapolis regarding multiple gun control bills currently being considered by the state legislature.Many of those testifying arrived in shirts stating that they “will not comply” with new gun control laws.This took a turn for the worst when the Maryland Democratic Party secretary, Robbie Leonard, threatened to “dox” those testifying today. |
|
|
| This week, Nancy Pelosi is making good on her promise to bring sweeping gun control bills now that the Democrats are in the House majority. As with nearly all gun control proposals, the first two bills being offered this week won’t make us any safer. Arguably, they will make the law-abiding even less safe. |
|
|
| The House on Wednesday will hold its first major vote on gun control legislation in years, bringing to the floor two bills aimed at strengthening the background check system for gun purchases. |
|
|
| With nearly one in five Democratic senators now eyeing the White House, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) is using his control over the chamber to make life a little more difficult for President Trump’s 2020 challengers. |
|
|
| Included in Monday’s hearing schedule was House Bill 342. It’s a bill that would clear up who has the right to carry a firearm. To clear that up, lawmakers are focusing on self defense as a viable reason to carry. |
