Hello everyone! It's that time of the year again! "No man's wallet or liberty is safe while the legislature is in session.

I have been working with a few friends these past few years in reviewing all of the bills submitted for consideration by the legislature. Every year, hundreds of bills are submitted. Relatively few come up to be voted on. Please find some of the more relevant bills below. Our hope is that you'll take the time to let your legislature representatives know how you feel about some of these bills. Thank you for your time!

Aww yeah

Love these threads and all the work you do!!

It really is simple to call and voice your support/opposition to various bills

It generally takes me 1 minute

Give name and address to get your reps
Then say you want them to support XY and oppose AB
That's it

Thanks CB! They are a lot of work to go through, and even more to follow them.
Lots of new bills, but not any movement yet on any of them. I think we got about 280 last night and 70 tonight. I think we will have the next alert Sunday evening.

Add:

HB18: creates definitions for firearms and ammunition in KRS 237, adds reporting requirement for lost/stolen guns/ammo, creates civil liability for not reporting it and someone is hurt with the firearm, creates civil liability for giving a firearm to a minor

HB77 - Red Flag Repeal Act of 2026 - prohibit ex parte orders, emergency protective orders, and temporary interpersonal protective orders that restrict the ability of a person to possess firearms and related items.

HB78 - Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms (PLCAA) Clarification Act of 2026 - establish liability protections for manufacturers and sellers of firearms, sue people for violating the extended protections to manufacturers and give AG enforcement powers.

HB79 - related to taxes and firearms/ammunition/body armor/suppressors. Seems like a good bill.

HB80 - lots of good stuff to prevent anti-gun work-arounds if Federal gun laws are repealed or struck down. Specifically: can sue against a person or organization that violates the prohibitions; waive sovereign, governmental, and qualified immunity; provide penalties for any person who violates the prohibition on enforcing a repealed or unconstitutional federal firearm restriction;


HB116 - California style gun control

HB125 - domestic violence and firearms. Mimics Federal law on prohibiting those with dv protective orders against them from possessing firearms.

Currently there are SB 10 through 49, 90 through 96, and 181
Currently there are HB 11 through 46, 48 through 66, and 68 through 282 (47 and 67 are not listed on the website)

Disclaimer: used Grok to search through the pages for firearm related bills. Checked the bills identified personally.

I think these bills were filed on Thursday night. I'm pretty sure most will end up on the alert.

The democrat reps file some bad bills every year, same bills every year. With the legislature makeup, there is no chance of them passing. We don't include them for that reason.  There's also several "Medicaid is a constitutional right" and "free tampons for everyone who wants them" every year from that side of the aisle. Almost ever democrat reps files then, so they can virtue signal to their base, "Look at me! I'm doing something!"

If we see a Republican filing this sort of bills, then we will absolutely add them to the alert.

I wouldnt worry about anything filed by that particular rep.
He files a TON of retarded bills every year.

He wants a whole BLACK HISTORY SEASON now (hb119). We should talk about that instead.

I really wish I could just upload a PDF...
Sorry about the formatting not being perfect when I drop it - I'm usually heading to bed or heading to work when I get the completed update.
