California: Two Anti-Gun Bills to be Heard in Senate Committee
Dear [Lawmaker],
As a fellow resident of California I urge you to OPPOSE AB 1252 and AB 2917! Assembly Bill 1252 codifies the Office of Gun Violence Prevention created by Attorney General Bonta in 2022 and would additionally create a Commission to End Gun Violence within the Department of Justice. While proponents claim the purpose is to conduct “research”, the Office of Gun Violence Prevention and newly established Commission will likely only serve to advocate for gun control policies using tax-payer dollars. Assembly Bill 2917 expands upon California’s existing Gun Violence Protective Order to allow the court to also consider “threats” directed towards a group or location when deciding whether to issue the order. If issued, Gun Violence Protective Orders result in a five year firearm prohibition, subject to indefinite renewals. These so-called “red flag” orders deprive citizens of their fundamental rights and property without due process safeguards and a clear evidentiary basis. These bills do nothing to stop violence and will only hinder law-abiding citizens from exercising their right to protect themselves and their families.
Sincerely,
______
