TO FOLLOWING BILLS ARE ON THE GOVERNOR'S DESK READY FOR A THOROUGH REVIEW.
AB 962 (De León) passed the Senate and is headed to the governor’s desk. It would make it illegal to knowingly sell ammunition to criminals, prohibited purchasers, ensure buyers get bullets face-to-face from a licensed dealer, keep ammunition out of easy reach from customers, check a purchaser’s ID, take a thumbprint and make records available to law enforcement. Several cities have already passed ordinances to that effect. We hope the governor signs this ground-breaking bill.
AB 532 (Lieu) The Assembly unanimously passed a bill to allow law enforcement to seize weapons from the scene of domestic violence incidents or from individuals who pose an immediate threat to themselves. The bill also authorizes issuance of a search warrant when the property or things to be seized include a firearm or any other deadly weapon at the scene of or under the control of a person arrested in connection with a domestic violence incident involving a threat to human life. We hope the governor signs this important bill.
AB 585 (Leno) GUN SHOW BAN The Senate concurred with the Assembly Amendments and the bill passed 21 to 18. This bill would prohibit the sale of firearms and ammunition at the Cow Palace and would thereby make a violation of that prohibition a misdemeanor. This bill would ban having a gun show at the Cow Palace, which is a state owned facility in the South San Francisco area.
