Antigun lobbying update

Every so often I check up Everytown to see what exactly they are lobbying for in Albany. It’s a little messed up this time as they include a bunch of clean energy bills which makes no sense. I assume their lobbying firm made a mistake with the reporting.

Here’s their current list of proposed gun-related bills:

  • A-449A, Establishes a ten business day waiting period from contact of the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) before a firearm, shotgun or rifle may be delivered to a person.
  • A-837, Requires the creation and imposition of restrictive commercial practices and stringent recordkeeping and reporting to prevent gun and ammunition sales to individuals with a criminal record.
  • A-4331/S-1991, Provides a civil action for deprivation of rights which is caused by any person or public entity.
  • A-5455/S-5026, Requires police officers to take temporary custody of firearms when responding to reports of family violence.
  • A-7926/S-4116, Requires semiautomatic pistols manufactured or delivered to any licensed dealer in this state to be capable of microstamping ammunition.
  • A-8131/S-7456, Requires the Division of Criminal Justice Services to establish and maintain a database of information relating to the sale or use of microstamped guns in the state.
  • A-8619A/S-7573, Expands eligibility for victims and survivors of crime to access victim compensation funds.
  • A-9000B/S-8000B, State operations budget.
