H.R. 45

[G-ManBart]

I haven't seen any mention of this since it's pretty new, but it looks like it's time to warm up the e-mail, snail mail and phones to tell your Representative not to support this. The first link comes from the officiel U.S. Congress webpage on Bills and Resolutions. It's a little slow and tedious (hey, it's the government!) since you have to click on it section by section. I found the second link which is much faster and goes directly to the full text.

new bill HR 45 introduced into the House.

This is the Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sale Act of 2009.

It doesn't sound very good.

This info from forum member G+16:

On the subj. H.R.45 was sponsored by Rep. Rush Bobby L. of IL. Introduced 1/6/2009 can be found on http://thomas.loc.gov/ , if passed it will provide for implementation of a system of licensing for purchasers of certain firearms and for a record of sale system for those firearms and for other purposes, my take gun reg. at it's finest.

I believe it can also be found on house.org

Hi Y'all

Well here's another attempt from the Lakes region by U.S. IL. Rep Bobby Rush (D).H.R. 45 Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act seems to be a redo of H.R. 2666 that was proposed buy then Congressman now WHCofS Rahm Emanuel that was defeated, has found new life after the tragic death of Blair Holt who's selfless act is being used to propose a new law that his teenage shooter did not and would not have followed anyway. well let's get ahold of our Rep's and Con's folks and work to defeat this proposed law.

thanks all.

yours in service
