VICTORY! PRIORITY BILL PASSED ASSEMBLY

VICTORY! Thanks to all of your work here in Orange County and our other 25 Brady Chapters across the state.The Assembly voted 48 to 25 to pass one of our priority bills - AB 1964.  AB 1964 (Dickinson) California law requires that all semiautomatic handguns models sold in the state pass a series of safety tests and possess certain features to be placed on the roster of handguns approved for sale. Pistols that have been either temporarily, or permanently, altered to fire a single shot before reloading are exempt. Unscrupulous dealers are altering semi-automatic pistols to "single shot" weapons for the purpose of the sale and then immediately altering them back to the semi-automatic condition, thus circumventing the law. This bill would prohibit that practice. This is a priority bill for the Brady Campaign.  This is how our OC Assembly Members voted: AYES:  Sharon Quirk-Silva and Tom Daly NOES:  Travis Allen and Curt Wagner NOT VOTING:  Diane Harkey and Allan Mansoor  (This is essentially a "no vote" for practical purposes.) We now have contact information (telephone, fax, email and address) for all Assembly Members on our Website if you would like to express your thoughts to them regarding their votes!
