Rep. Chris Collins’ new bill H.R.3576 is getting some attention. I have seen it mentioned in newspapers in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Hawaii.
“New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo threatened to file a lawsuit Tuesday if Congress passes pro-Second Amendment legislation that would roll back the state’s major 2013 gun control law known as the SAFE Act. “If they try to overrule the State of New York we will sue because this state has rights too,” Cuomo told reporters. “And especially with this federal government, it is very important that states represent their rights and assert their rights and I will assert my rights to the fullest extent of the law.” …”
Collins’ response:
Rep. Collins, on @fud31's show, taking delight in needling Cuomo: "I think it's safe to say I continue to get under Governor Cuomo's skin."

Congress has gone into recess so we’ll have to wait and see how much support it receives from the New York delegation.
Keep up the good work Mr. Collins I wish we had politician’s like you on long island and maybe I would not leave and take my NY pension with me.
Unfortunately, my bet is that it will be struck down in the circuits as we have very few friends there, and SCOTUS will not give cert. Sadly, Cumhole will win that one. The most important thing Pres Trump can do now is focus on packing the courts with friendlys as much as he can. Especially since the spineless, lying, Republican frauds cant / wont get anything done.
That’s if it were ever to see the light of day, which I doubt. Would require a set of balls that I do not believe the Repubs can come up with even one ball between all of them.
