BILL WITH NUMEROUS GUN-CONTROL MEASURES INTRODUCED
Legislation (HR 45 - "Blair Holt Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale
Act") sponsored by U.S. Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill.) would mandate numerous gun-control measures if passed. The bill specifically calls for all handgun owners to submit to the federal government a formal application including: photo identification, fingerprints, medical and mental health records and a completed written firearm safety examination.
Applicants would also be forced to pay a fee to the federal government. NSSF is vigorously opposing this legislation and is monitoring the bill closely.
Please consider contacting your representative (see below) and urging him or her to oppose this dangerous bill.
