AZCDL Legislative Update 2/24

 

It's Crossover Week at the State Legislature

This week marks the halfway point in the 2023 legislative session. "Crossover" refers to the transfer of bills between the House of Representatives and the Senate. All House bills that have survived the committee process will now be considered by the Senate while all Senate bills that are still in play are headed to the House. Then the process starts all over again!Eighteen bills that AzCDL is tracking are still alive, for the complete list visit the AzCDL Bill Tracking Page.Five bills of interest are being heard in the House Rules Committee this week. The Rules Committee is tasked with determining if each bill is "proper" in a legal sense and, therefore, does not accept comments or other input from the public. That means your RTS fingers get a week off!AzCDL would like to thank all of you who have responded to our RTS alerts so far this session and hope you will continue to fight with us to protect and extend the right to keep and bear arms in Arizona. Stay tuned for part II, coming soon!

These alerts are a project of the Arizona Citizens Defense League (AzCDL), an all-volunteer, non-profit, non-partisan grassroots organization.  AzCDL – Protecting Your Freedom.

FBI Director Candidate Wray’s Adopting Language of Left on Guns Merits Further Scrutiny

Will Wray swear an oath to enforce “commonsense” gun legislation or to “support and defend the Constitution”? (Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing/YouTube) July 13, 2017 Attorney Christopher Wray, President Donald Trump’s nominee to head the Federal Bureau of Investigation, gave a response to a “gun control” question in Wednesday’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that raises flags for right to keep and bear arms advocates.  Per The Daily Signal , Wray was being “pressed” by Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn. “on whether he would back universal background checks for gun buyers.” Wray tried to get around specifics at first, talking in general terms about “efforts to deal with gun violence” and how he “would want to take a look at any specific legislative proposal and get back to you once I have evaluated [it].” But Blumenthal, as committed an  enemy of the Second Amendment  as ever put one hand on a Bible, raised the other and proceeded to lie though his teeth, was intent on scoring poin
