Legislative Hearing for Ban on Modern Firearms Set for January 24 in Olympia Print E-mail
As you will recall, NRA-ILA informed you about Senate Bill 6396, legislation that would bring California-style gun-control to the Northwest and ultimately ban many semi-automatic firearms commonly owned by Washingtonians. 

The members of the Senate Judiciary Committee must hear from you before they consider SB 6396 at the 10 a.m. hearing on Tuesday, January 26!  If at all possible, please attend the Judiciary Committee meeting on Tuesday to personally voice opposition to this misdirected legislation.  The hearing will be held in Hearing Room #1 in the Cherberg Building.  Arrive at least an hour early to park and sign in.  Here is a map of the Capitol campus:  http://www.ga.wa.gov/images/campus-map.pdf.  The list of committee members and their contact information can be found by visiting http://www.leg.wa.gov/Senate/Committees/JUD/Pages/MembersStaff.aspx.

HB 2268: A Fraudulent School Safety Bill Print E-mail
This message is to alert parents and students to a bill that is rapidly moving through the Washington State Legislature, which should be of great concern to you all.  This bill is a huge threat to parental rights and students’ futures under the guise of protecting kids from violence.  Among other problems, one .22 round accidentally left in a pocket, and the state essentially owns the kid who got caught with it.  The bill has just sailed through the House and is poised to do the same in the Senate, and the media is not reporting on what’s happening.

The gun-ban group "Washington Ceasefire" has issued an alert to their members requesting that they attend a hearing in the State Legislature to ban the private sales of firearms at gun shows.  "Washington Ceasefire" knows that there is no gun show "loophole", but this is only their first step of a larger plan to completely ban ALL private sales of firearms in Washington. 
Ask your senator to oppose SB5191.
