Anti-Gun Bill Scheduled for Conference Committee Hearing Tomorrow

From NRA-ILA,  APRIL 19, 2016

Tomorrow, April 20, Senate Bill 2954 has been scheduled for a conference committee meeting at 9:00am.  Please click the “Take Action” button below to contact the members of the conference committee in opposition to this misguided bill!

SB 2954 would expand the existing registration requirement and input law-abiding Hawaii gun owners into a federal biometric database, managed by the FBI, for continuous monitoring, and could be in violation of your Fourth Amendment rights.  Positive hits in this system have not necessarily been adjudicated and could cause issues with an individual’s ability to exercise their constitutional rights.  Additionally, this could result in a potential fee increase and cost gun owners more than what is already required in Hawaii due to the cost associated with adding individuals into this biometric database.

Once again, please click the “Take Action” button above to contact the conference committee with your opposition to this bill!
