SB 1275 would create a state license requirement before someone could purchase a handgun and SB 1276 would impose a similar requirement for ammunition. We don't know why Senator Hart pulled the bills off file. Assemblyman Burton's AB 2469 was moved to "suspense" by the Ways and Means Committee. AB 2469 would increase the penalty for carrying a concealed weapon to a "wobbler" if proper ammunition was present and the weapon is not registered to the suspect in the DOJ computer system. The bill was moved to "suspense" because of its potential costs. We don't expect anything else to happen with the bill until the state budget is signed in June or July. ROBERTI PRESS CONFERENCE - "MASS MURDER AMMUNITION CLIPS" Senator Roberti held a press conference today concerning SB 1128. He said the bill lacks 5 or 6 votes for passage. He did not mention any proposed amendments. The press turnout was small and the interest level low. Please keep calling to let your Assembly Members know that you want SB 1128 defeated. 20TH SENATE DISTRICT CANDIDATES' FORUM On Wednesday, March 30, 1994 at 7 p.m., the NRA will host a candidates' forum at the Airtel Plaza Hotel, 7277 Valjean Avenue, Van Nuys. All candidates have been invited to participate. A mailing is going to thousands of NRA members in the district. Bring your spouse, neighbors and friends but come early -- there are only 500 seats. STOCKTON CITY COUNCIL On Monday, March 21, 1994, some members of the Stockton City Council tried to pass a motion to support the creation of an anti-gun task force. Their ultimate objective was passage of local gun control measures. The proposal failed. Instead we helped to create an anti- crime task force and we expect NRA members will be major contributors. Thanks goes out to all the NRA members that called the council and packed the council chambers. Once again the "grass roots" came out on top. ====================================================================== -- ************************************************************ * Ron Phillips crphilli@hound.edaca.ingr.com * * Senior Customer Engineer * * Intergraph Electronics * * 381 East Evelyn Avenue VOICE: (415) 691-6473 * * Mountain View, CA 94041 FAX: (415) 691-0350 * ************************************************************
