OFF ALERT 10.03.07
NRA GUN CONTROL BILL STALLED BUT NOT DEAD. |
The
NRA backed, Brady Bill expansion act, HR 2640 has been stalled
as a result of your efforts, but it's
not dead yet
Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma is working to keep the bill from
being fast-tracked, but Charles Schumer and the NRA are continuing
to try to pass it over the objections of gun owners across the
country.
While the NRA continues to insist this is not gun control, their
allies, New York's Charles Schumer and Carolyn McCarthy have
hailed it as just that.
Gun Owners of America, which is opposing the bill, has reported
that the American Legion has joined The Military Order of the
Purple Heart in opposing the legislation.
The NRA has dubbed the bill "The Brady Improvement Act"
but have never really explained why gun owners would want to
"improve" an unconstitutional bill that gun owners
opposed from the beginning. Nor have they explained why the
Federal Government, which routinley delays and denies qualified
gun buyers in Oregon should be trusted with even more of people's
personal records.
You can read an in-depth analysis of what is wrong with this
bill here.You
may also want to contact the NRA and tell them to STOP supporting
Schumer and McCarthy's latest gun grab.
You can use GOA's legislative
action center to send an e-mail to Senators Ron Wyden and
Gordon Smith. If you are an NRA member you may want to contact
them and tell them you do not support their alliances with the
likes of Schumer.
