On Wednesday April 8, the House Judiciary Committee will meet in the House Lounge at 4 p.m. to launch an historic attack on your Second Amendment rights. Anti-gun lawmakers will seek to advance their most aggressive gun ban package ever!
Anti-gun extremists in Providence want to completely strip the rights of law-abiding gun owners as their new assault includes gun rationing, attacks on concealed carry, range harassment, age restrictions, background checks on ammunition, manufacturer liability, mandatory $1 million insurance policies for gun owners and a ban on possessing semi-autos.
Your immediate help is needed! Please contact House Judiciary Committee members and House Speaker Joe Shekarchi and respectfully request a NO vote on these bills.
There are currently 18 gun bills on the agenda, and the overwhelming majority of them are bad. A full agenda can be found here: agenda-21460.pdf
The worst of the worst include:
H.7035 adopts a gun rationing scheme where government permission is only given to buy one gun a month.
H.8073 adds “possession” to last year’s ban on the sale or transfer of semi-autos. There is no grandfathering, and the legislation creates a felony with harsh penalties. Those who fail to get rid of their guns face a maximum penalty of $10,000 and a 10-year prison sentence.
H.8071 prohibits the sale or transfer of ammunition unless the purchaser successfully undergoes a background check. This legislation would force the state of Rhode Island to create a database as NICS cannot be used for anything other than firearms transfers.
H.8075 forces anyone who owns firearms to maintain an insurance policy of at least $1,000,000. This is all part of their scheme to make exercising your constitutional rights completely unaffordable.
All of this is coming on the heels of the Legislature passing magazine restrictions and a semi-auto ban as recently as last session. Anyone who thought they would be satisfied is wrong. Their intention is to completely ban your Second Amendment rights. Act today!
