I wonder if the Assembly Committee will take up the Senate Bill with the amendment made and not have a vote on the Assembly Bill. The senate amendment gives DOJ 5 days to complete the check instead of the Federal 3 days. I knew that would happen, as that was the only objection DOJ had to the bill. They currently have 5 days, and they claimed that 77% of the fail-to-pass checks didn't come until the 4th or 5th day. The bill would've dropped it down to 3, like NICS. No big deal IMO, as most are done in minutes. If you're held up for 5 days now under current law, you'd be held up the same amount of time. So, if you pass right through now (I've always cleared in minutes... 10 times in past 5 years), you'll be leaving the store with your new gun in less than 48 hours. I've bought 3 handguns since I got my CCW license, and cleared the check before the dealer hung up the original call, all 3 times. I don't believe both bills need to make it through the respective committees to become law. If the full Senate passes it's version, that version then goes to the Assembly for concurrance. The reason they submit duplicate bills, is to double the chances of one getting through committee and to the floor... or so I've been told. ETA: Did they vote on it, and if so, was it 3 (R) YEA to 2 (D) NO as I expected it to be? |

SB35 passed committee, and is available for scheduling before the full Senate. There were 2 amendments, but I cannot open the PDFs for some reason, I just get a black screen, so I don't know what the 2nd is. But both amendments passed by a 5-0 vote, and the bill passed the committee vote, 3-2.

Anyone have any further updates on the progress of SB35?. When will it reach the Senate floor for a vote? After coming this far, I'd really hate to see this piece of legislation "die on the vine" so to speak. TIA for any updates provided. Regards, Gary

After coming this far, I'd really hate to see this piece of legislation "die on the vine" so to speak. TIA for any updates provided. Regards, Gary View Quote LOL. It won't die. We just had an election last fall, all the newbs are settling in... and most importantly, the 2015 Legislative Session is just getting underway. Remember the CCW bill in 2011? It was SB93. Bills are numbered in order of submission. IIRC, it didn't have committee hearings until May, and got passed in June, signed into law on July 11th, took effect on Nov. 1st. SB35 is months ahead of that bill in the time frame of the process, and is likely to be far less time consuming in the floor debates & vote. It might even have what's known as a "voice vote", instead of tallying up the votes for an official count. And it likely will take effect immediately after signing & publication, as there's no "process" to be set up like there was for SB93, with issuing CC licenses. It'll just be the deletion of the 48 hours wait when buying a handgun. edit: expect the Dems in both Senate & Assembly to throw all kinds of anti-gun "amendments" at the bill, in a futile attempt to get one to stick. There'll be AWBs, magazine capacity limits, background checks on private sales.... the whole gun banners' wish list will be trotted out for display, and quickly shot down. They must do this - it's in their rule book, otherwise their talking points get no publicity, and Repubs cannot be portrayed as evil puppets of the big/bad/NRA and corporate America in the guise of the gun companies. yada yada yada |

On the radio today Scott L. Fitzgerald (senate leader) said they would take up the 48 hour waiting period in April or May, but did not think there was any real opposition to it.

Excellent, thanks for the links. I'm a newb when it comes to legislation. I'm reading that this does 2 things. It specifies "assisted" openers as not being "switchblades" which was kind of gray before even though you could freakin buy em at wal mart. AND allows CCL/LEO's, etc to carry any switchblade. Is that correct-ish?

If the Senate passes it, it still must be approved by the Assembly. I don't see any problems with it passing in either, but the Assembly still has to schedule it (which they won't do until it passes in the Senate). If all goes well, it should become law within a few weeks.

It's on wiseye now. Risser is talking against the bill... "public safety more important than the inconveniences of handgun buyers yada yada yada" . This fossil needs to crawl in a corner and peacefully pass away. Dems are trying to tack on straw purchase & private sales amendments.
http://www.wiseye.org/Mobile/Stream1.aspx 2 Dem amendments shot down. Dems now discussing 3rd amendment, "universal" background checks on ALL private sales. First two amendments were ruled not germane to the legislation. Neither is the 3rd, but we'll see what happens. Universal background check amendment ruled not germane, and appeal by Lena Taylor denied, ruling upheld by 19-13 vote. Discussing the bill itself now, as unamended. Carpenter is now complaining again about gun crime in Milwaukee, concealed carry, the whole Dem complaint list. I expect every Dem to give a similar 10 minute anti-gun speech. Only on the 3rd, so this could take awhile before they vote. Now Larson's turn. He says this bill is bankrolled by gun manufacturers. Bill passed by voice vote! Ordered immediately messaged to Assembly. |

It's on wiseye now. Risser is talking against the bill... "public safety more important than the inconveniences of handgun buyers yada yada yada" . This fossil needs to crawl in a corner and peacefully pass away. Dems are trying to tack on straw purchase & private sales amendments. http://www.wiseye.org/Mobile/Stream1.aspx 2 Dem amendments shot down.
