Background check\u00a0expansions are on the move in the \u201cIndustry\u201d State and we\u2019re counting on you to help block H.B.\u00a0225 & 226 leaving the\u00a0House Committee on Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice today at\u00a02:00 PM!<\/p>\n
H.B. 225\u00a0requires agencies to run a background check when returning a firearm to an individual from evidence.<\/p>\n
It also necessitates that courts report criminal information to the Criminal Investigations and Technical Service Division to provide all the relationship connections between the victim and the perpetrator.<\/p>\n
If that shocking data collection scheme were not enough, H.B. 225 requires the Bureau of Criminal Identification to inform local law enforcement agencies with jurisdiction over a firearms dealer when a restricted person attempts to purchase a firearm from that dealer! Meaning that your information will be sent to your local sheriff or police department when a false positive denial occurs.<\/p>\n
Under H.B. 226,\u00a0the legislation creates an online process that allows an individual involved in the sale of a firearm to determine if the purchaser has a valid concealed carry permit, is a restricted person, or the firearm has been reported as stolen.<\/p>\n
It also directs the Bureau of Criminal Identification to notify an individual using the online process that the individual could be criminally prosecuted for selling or purchasing a stolen firearm or selling a firearm to a restricted person, and the bureau is immune from suits arising from the operation of the online process.<\/p>\n
Please see GOA\u2019s complete reports on how background checks are unconstitutional<\/a> and about the ATF\u2019s illegal registry<\/a>.<\/p>\n Once again, House Bills 225 & 226 are scheduled for a committee hearing on January 25th at 2:00 PM.<\/p>\n
