BACKGROUND CHECK BILL SCHEDULED FOR HEARING.
HB 2791, the bill we requested to remove background checks from the Oregon State Police and turn them over to the Feds, (who don't keep records of the purchased guns and don't charge an additional fee) has been scheduled for a hearing in the Ways and Means Public Safety Subcommittee. The bill is scheduled to be heard on May 17th at 3pm. The hearing room in the State Capitol is H 170. If you are a gun dealer, or a gun owner who has been unjustly delayed or denied, we strongly urge you to attend this hearing and share your experiences. We continue to receive almost daily reports of delays by OSP for gun sale background check approvals. This bill would solve that and eliminate the fee the State Police are charging every time you buy a firearm. This is an extremely important bill, and one which most likely would not be sent to Floyd Prozanski's Judiciary Committee, where he can kill it or hold it hostage as a bargaining chip. (It could still happen, but is not too likely.) Please contact the members of the Public Safety Subcommittee and urge a speedy "do pass" recommendation for HB 2791. Urge them to move it to the full committee and please consider attending and contributing to the hearing on the 17th. The committee's contact info follows. Please remember, your input does really matter. Public Safety Subcommittee Membership: Sen. Jackie Winters, Co-Chair sen.jackiewinters@state.or.us Rep. Mary Nolan, Co-Chair rep.marynolan@state.or.us Rep. Greg Smith, Co-Chair rep.gregsmith@state.or.us Rep. Jeff Barker, Co-Vice Chair rep.jeffbarker@state.or.us Rep. Wally Hicks, Co-Vice Chair rep.wallyhicks@state.or.us Sen. Rod Monroe sen.rodmonroe@state.or.us Sen. Joanne Verger sen.joanneverger@state.or.us Sample message: _______________________________________________________________ I strongly urge you to support HB 2791. This simple, commonsense measure would save Oregonians millions of dollars a year and end the serious problems created by the Oregon State Police ID unit. The OSP ID unit needlessly delays legitimate firearms purchases and often provides false or erroneous information to gun buyers and dealers. Please move 2791 out of your subcommittee with a "do pass" recommendation and do all you can to get approval from the full Ways and Means Committee. Yours. |

AS PREDICTED.
http://oregonfirearms.org/alertspage/2011/05.25.11%20alert.html As we suspected, amendments have been introduced to neuter HB 2797, our bill to clarify how a person may lawfully transport a firearm on a motorcycle, ATV or snowmobile.
This bill and the proposed amendments are due to be heard at 8AM tomorrow. We apologize for the late alert, but we just received the amendments. The amendments do several things, but as we expected, the principle (and most troubling) change is the effort to ban concealed carry on ALL school grounds including college property. This simple bill may well be stuffed with 11 pages of amendments, which will all but guarantee that the bill will die. We will continue to do all we can to assure the bill gets a vote in its original form. You can see the amendments here. We will keep you informed and keep fighting for a clean bill and a fair vote. We thank our friends in the motorcycle community for their efforts to move this bill forward. |

Apologies if I missed something. |

Sorry I missed your question. The bill from what I understand is dead. There has been lots of action over the past 2 weeks. Most of which isn't extremely important one way or another so I haven't posted it.

Mr. Douche Bag Floyd Prozanski sent out a 2nd survey after his 1st. The first one was atrociously bias and can be found here...http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BSZRVRQ
TAKE THE NEW SURVEY: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WNSG6KZ After reviewing comments regarding the short survey we sent out last week, I decided that we should have included all of the current requirements for an Oregonian to obtain a CHL. Using the below link, you will be able to state whether you agree or disagree with each of the requirements. I apologize for not including all of them on the first survey.
Not all states that issue CHLs have the same requirements as Oregon. For example, not all states require a mental health background check. I am not suggesting that the listed requirements are unique to Oregon. Rather, my goal is to learn which of Oregon's requirements you feel are important. Thanks for taking the time to respond to this survey. If you have additional comments, please e-mail them to me. Thanks. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WNSG6KZ Floyd |

When I clicked on the link, I get a message that says "Thank you, we realize your time is important, and appreciate your input" or something like that, but there is no survey to be taken there.

I just tried it again, and tried accessing it three different ways, and still got the same message. I even typed in the location address long form and got the same message.
