Washington Patriots, we are in the fight of a lifetime for your 2nd Amendment Rights! The radical Left is fast streaming a vote to destroy your God-given rights with multiple anti-gun bills to be heard on Tuesday, Jan. 17th in the House Civil Rights & Judiciary and Senate Law and Justice committees.
Here’s what’s on the agenda:
House Civil Rights & Judiciary Committee (10:30 AM on Tuesday, January 17th)
- HB 1178 – Would repeal firearms preemption in Washington. This would turn Washington into a patchwork quilt of gun control laws as anti-gun cities would be free to enact their own gun control ordinances.
- HB 1143 – This bill creates a draconian “permit to purchase” requirement for all firearm sales in Washington and would require mandatory training, among other things.
- HB 1144 – Creates a mandatory training requirement to purchase firearms that would need to be renewed every five years.
- HB 1240 – The so-called “assault weapons” ban that would criminalize possession of over 65 semi-automatic rifles
Senate Law & Justice Committee (10:30 AM on Tuesday, January 17th)
- SB 5078 – This bill would eliminate immunity for firearms manufacturers, placing the entire gun industry at risk for frivolous lawsuits. If enacted into law, it could lead to the entire firearms manufacturing industry being sued out of existence.
Friends, your constitutionally-protected rights have never been in such peril in Washington. That’s why I need you to take action by sending a message to the committee members to oppose these bills and signing up to testify on Tuesday.
