California: Mandatory Storage, Red Flag Expansion, and other Anti-Gun Bills to be Heard in Committee Next Week
Next week, the California Senate and Assembly Appropriations committees will be holding public hearings on several anti-gun bills. With just weeks remaining of the 2024 session, it’s critical for all NRA members and Second Amendment supporters to contact committee members and urge their opposition to these bills!
On Monday, August 5th, the Assembly Appropriations Committee will hold a hearing on the following bills:
Assembly Bill 1252 codifies the Office of Gun Violence Prevention created by Attorney General Bonta in 2022 and would additionally create a Commission to End Gun Violence within the Department of Justice. While proponents claim the purpose is to conduct “research”, the Office of Gun Violence Prevention and newly established Commission will likely only serve to advocate for gun control policies using tax-payer dollars.

Assembly Bill 2917 expands upon California’s existing Gun Violence Protective Order to allow the court to also consider “threats” directed towards a group or location when deciding whether to issue the order. If issued, Gun Violence Protective Orders result in a five year firearm prohibition, subject to indefinite renewals. These so-called “red flag” orders deprive citizens of their fundamental rights and property without due process safeguards and a clear evidentiary basis.
On Wednesday, August 7th, the Senate Appropriations Committee will hold a hearing on Senate Bill 53.
Senate Bill 53 prohibits firearm possession in the home unless the firearms are stored in a locked box or safe that is approved by the Department of Justice and renders them inaccessible to anyone other than the owner. SB 53 ignores the U.S. Supreme Court decision in D.C v. Heller which argued that storage requirements that prevent gun owners from easily accessing their firearms are unconstitutional.
Again, we urge you to contact your legislators and urge them to OPPOSE these bills. Please continue to check your inbox and NRA-ILA for updates concerning your Second Amendment rights and hunting heritage.
