HB 6544 of 2022 - Prohibit possession or sale of "assault weapons"

[Iambusy3]

His term ends on January 1st, He filled a vacancy in May 2022. I can't see any mention that he will will be back in the next term. Read some of his bills. He appears too radical even for the Democrats.

No he probably doesn't. But several thousand emails might.

Or just throw in the towel, don't do anything, which is pretty much what the gun community always does. Then the community wonders why our rights are constantly eroded. No one will take 3-5 minutes to send an email.

Ok. I just sent him an email.
I've also emailed my Republican representative and senator.
Does any one have confirmation on his return next year?

He's not listed as winning any seat in the general election. He was only a fill in for a vacated seat since May 2022. His seat in the 15th district has been won by Erin Byrnes, a democrat. He won't be back.

I have a feeling that they are just testing the waters or the bill was put out to fulfill the politicians obligation to their backer

Either way we will make our voice heard

Meaning?

"sine die"

It is the concept of what happens to all open bills at the close of session, which is Thursday.

I hope so. I just read the language of the open carry bill too….it essentially kills all target shooting on state land that’s not at a sanctioned range….if we are left with anything to target shoot with…


Sine Die doesn’t prevent another similar bill from being immediately introduced later though.

Weapons: other; possession or sale of assault weapons; prohibit.
Last Action: 12/1/2022 bill electronically reproduced 12/01/2022

Under this POS Bill, my Remington 742 is an 'assault weapon' because I installed a thumbhole stock to reduce the recoil impact on the artificial shoulder.

It's time for the sheep to quit being sheep.

Response from my representative.

Thank you for contacting the Office of State Representative Luke Meerman regarding House Bill 6544.

Representative Meerman completely shares your thoughts on this bill. You are right when you say it is tyrannical and unconstitutional. Rep. Meerman would absolutely be voting against the bill if it were to come before him, but thankfully it will not even pass committee. Rep. Meerman will always vote against gun control legislation.

Thanks again for contacting the representative. Please do not hesitate to reach out to our office in the future.


Kind regards,
Caden Hembrough
