NRA-ILA | Oregon: Gun-Control Omnibus Passes House, Returns to Senate For Concurrence

On Wednesday, June 25th, the House passed Senate Bill 243, the gun control omnibus package. SB 243 will now return to the Senate for a concurrence vote.

Please contact your Senator and urge them to OPPOSE SB 243 by using the TAKE ACTION button below.

SB 243 is an omnibus gun-control bill that includes elements of other pending anti-gun legislation, including: SB 696, creating the crime of unlawful transport, manufacture, or transfer of a “rapid-fire activator;” SB 698, gun-free zone expansion; and HB 3075, which implements portions of Ballot Measure 114 through legislative action.

With 3 days left before the constitutional sine die deadline, HB 3076 was killed on the House Floor with a rereferral to the Judiciary Committee. HB 3076 would impose significant restrictions and penalties on federal firearm licensees, including 24-hour video surveillance, even for home-based FFLs. Firearms dealers are already highly regulated by both state and federal law. This legislation is nothing more than a push by anti-gun proponents to further increase the cost and potential liabilities for operating a lawful business.

With the legislative deadline swiftly approaching, please stay tuned to the NRA-ILA website and your inbox for updates as this session draws to a close.
