Oregon: Anti-Gun Bills Aimed at Law-Abiding Citizens to be Heard on Friday,
April 5
Your action is needed now
Friday, April 5 at 8:30am, a multitude of anti-gun bills will be heard in the Oregon state Senate Judiciary Committee. These bills attempt to create a solution to a non-existent problem and instead create a new class of criminals amongst otherwise law-abiding citizens.
Senate Bill 347 Makes it a Class C Felony for a concealed handgun license (CHL) holder to carry a firearm onto school grounds unless the school district or other entity controlling the school grounds has an adopted written policy authorizing an exemption for CHL holders.
Senate Bill 699 Bans concealed handgun license (CHL) holders from carrying in the state Capitol unless they receive written permission from the Legislative Administrator.
Senate Bill 700 Criminalizes private transfers of firearms with others, excluding immediate family. Such background checks would either have to be conducted directly through the Department of State Police or through a licensed gun dealer, who may charge an unspecified fee. Whats more, the Department of State Police would be required to maintain the background information they obtain for a period of five years! Such universal background checks are enforced by gun registration that enables future gun confiscation.
Senate Bill 796 Requires that an individual applying for a Concealed Handgun License must first pass a comprehensive firing range test.
Various amendments have been proposed for all four Senate bills but do little to compensate the attack on law-abiding gun owners.
Please call AND e-mail members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and respectfully urge them to OPPOSE these bills.
