National hr 1296 - news?

[OldTengu]

Has anyone been able to find any news from today's hearing on 1296 with the house judiciary committee? All i've seen is this, from an email from the FPC:

The inmates are officially running the asylum…
That was the key takeaway from a marathon 4-hour hearing Wednesday in the House Judiciary Committee on HR 1296, which would ban nearly every rifle in America.
The hearing was a total circus, wherein anti-gunners advanced learned arguments like:
We need to ban guns like the "AK-15" and "FN Fifty-Seven."
Banning nearly all semi-automatic rifles is merely an "incremental step."
And "anything used to hunt people should be banned."


Since their primary function seems to be to raise funds for 2a defense, the wording isn't surprising, but i have not seen any news to verify.

I saw that already, but no update from the hearing today, anywhere, that I can find.

It will probably be updated in the next 24/48hrs thats the best place to check unless you want media bias spun results on it once they remove the impeach goggles long enough to see reality.

Probably a non-starter. Now that Pelosi peed in the punchbowl on Capitol Hill with impeachment BS, McConnell will ensure that anything that gets to the Senate is DOA.

They want so badly to push impeachment that they probably can't focus on enough topics to stay relevant.

They have too many irons in the fire.

IMHO.....the fix is in. Well, I could be wrong. And, YES....I'd like to be wrong in this case. But when...….the media and legislators keep using the buzz words.

Assault Weapon(s)
Mass destructiuon/killings/casulaties/loss of life
Gun Violence
Weapons of War
Mass Shooting(s)
Loop Hole, etc.....

Jeez.......not to mention the title of the bill itself. Just like how some in WA got duped with I-1639.

Thanks....OldTengu for your link.

Aloha, Mark

Need to keep an eye on it....with everyone frothing over impeachment, it wont grt the attention it deserves....probably by design.

A healthy eye is prudent... McCornhole needs to be reminded at every opportunity that we ARE watching, and his continued Majority Leadership depends on him not crossing us.

Most definitely by design.

This is still only sitting in introduction. House would pass it certainly.
Senate not likely.

Federally this is DOA. Id more concerned at state levels pushing their flavor instead.
