From e-mail received today:

"2021 Legislation in Rhode Island

This will be a short message with more coming this week.

In our last email we referenced upcoming bills we knew were coming since some legislators had given us a heads-up. After their release we can confirm they are worse than anyone could have imagined and are, at this point, the most restrictive proposals in the country.

What's so egregious about these bills? Just a single bill, their so-called high capacity magazine ban, would ban almost every single firearm on the market in addition to the ones you already own. Any magazine with a "removeable floorplate and the ability to be extended" will be illegal. This encompasses all semiautomatic handguns, rifles and some manually operated firearms. No purchasing, transferring nor grandfathering. It would require less effort to list the firearms you CAN own rather than the restrictions themselves.

Additional bills call for the removal of shall-issue gun permitting, a ban on most semi auto rifles and full medical release forms when purchasing a firearm.

Below are a list of just some of the bills being proposed in the Rhode Island General Assembly. Feel free to create your own account and track the progress of both House and Senate.

Click HERE and select "find my elected officials." Let them know how you feel. Be relentless with phone calls, emails and traditional mail. If they do not respond then canvas them. They had no problem begging for your vote.

There is some good news though. There doesn't seem to be much legislation aimed at actual criminals so if that is you then it's business as usual.

More to come.


Best,

Stolen. Elections have consequences.


Going to be a long year, we need to fight like never before. As soon as Mattielo was sacked, This was the writing on the wall.

Yes, it will be a struggle.  If we all exert ourselves, a winnable struggle.  The Antis might be a little over-confident.

I'll post some suggestions in a different thread.

Tim, I'm no longer to update any RI RKBA threads here, including threads tacked at top of this forum.

May I ask you to take any and all measures to ensure the links contained in tacked threads are viable, and to include new links?

Let me know how I can help you.  As you know, time is of the essence, so best done sooner than too late.

@TimJ

We all thank you!  Much obliged!
