On Wednesday, the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing and sent House Bills 4138, 4142, and 4143 straight to the floor. The House then voted 56-53 to pass them. These further criminalize private transfers of firearms by expanding Michigan’s permit-to-purchase and registration system to all firearms. The committee once again suppressed opposition by only allowing one person to testify against this package, despite the chair having said last week for anyone else wishing to testify to come back this week. It now goes to the Senate for further consideration.
The committee has not yet taken action on the other two anti-gun packages before it. NRA will keep you updated. Please stay tuned to www.nraila.org and your email inbox.

Any new firearm database is illegal under federal law. Can Michigan just argue this is a mere addition to an old one? I don’t think that holds water. So NRA, what are you going to do about it? No, chirping like a cricket won’t help. Are you lobbying and testifying? Waiting…
Thank you unions!
There’s talk of indoctrinating of our children, but what you don’t hear is the indoctrinating of union members. As a member of a union at one time, I paid my union dues, and what I got back for them wasn’t even close to what I paid out, but the union bosses got theirs!
What was it Red Foxx said? Oh yeah, boss spelled backwards is a dbl SOB!
So is the NRA supporting or opposing this? It’s gotten so difficult to tell these days.
I’m old enough to remember when the bugaboo of the day was the dreaded “Saturday Night Special.” Oh, so many murders committed by the heinous little cheap guns flooding our streets and getting people drunk and mad enough to kill one another, because we know it’s not the person, it’s the implement. The dreaded Saturday Night Special is what prompted the GCA ’68, although the dems and some Republicrats stuffed it with other things like the requirement of 4473 forms and licensed dealers. Prior to that, in most areas, if you wanted to sell guns in your store you just… Read more »
