CGSSA CALIFORNIA Legislation Tracking - Stay up to date!
 
Quick Introduction: This thread is for keeping track of the various anti-gun bills working its way through the California legislature. This will be a living, breathing post that will get revised frequently with the most recent amendments and actions taken by our legislators, as well as vetoes by Governor Brown.

As of 10/11, all of the pending anti-civil rights bills that we have been tracking have been signed or vetoed by Governor Brown. Now comes the arduous task of figuring out what, exactly, we need to do going forward. For now, in a rare display of common sense, it seems like most of the worst were vetoed.

Go to http://gov.ca.gov/s_pressreleases.php to check which of these bills have been signed by the Governor.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

To understand more of how the California legislative process works, read this: How Things Work in **California** - Bills, Laws, Legislators
tl;dr version, graphically illustrated:
- how an assembly bill (AB) becomes law:
http://i.imgur.com/NOs3hRS.gif
- how a senate bill (SB) becomes law:
http://i.imgur.com/KJgTv94.gif

Most of the pending anti-gun bills revise the Penal Code, so the the committee (in both the Senate and the Assembly) that gets the first crack at it is Public Safety. (Some, like AB-711, were considered by the Natural Resources and Water committee, and the Assembly equivalent because they revise the Fish and Game Code) All of these bills have a fiscal impact or involve a local program, so they are then voted on by the Appropriations committee. Then, the floor votes on the bill.

(As a side note, we are in step 7 with all of these bills because they are awaiting (or will be awaiting shortly) the Governor's veto or signature.)

The next major deadline is October 13. Governor Jerry Brown has until this deadline to sign or veto the passed bills. If he takes no action, then the bill becomes the law.

Please write, e-mail, fax, and/or call Governor Brown to VETO each and every one of these bills. (You can use the webpage linked in my signature for the e-mail form).

Thanks for the write up OP. The more exposure the better.

Nice. Thank you.

SamsDX 06-11-2013 10:14 PM

6/11 Updates - AB-169 and AB-170 passed by Senate Public Safety Committee, AB-711 passed by Senate Natural Resources & Water Committee. All three bills referred to Senate Appropriations Committee.

Contact all of the Senate Appropriations Committee members to urge them to vote against these measures as being too costly to Californians!

chairmnofthboard 06-12-2013 7:16 AM

keep vigilant, once the heat dies down, they'll start passing all these bills.

It turned to crap long ago. They're wanting to use us (the law-abiding gun owner) as the toilet paper to clean up THEIR frigging mess!!!

Kindly updated by Mattsn0w, who's listening to the live stream:
http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=783435

I'll post up the updates once it becomes official on the leginfo site later tonight.

So far, it looks like these passed out of the assembly public safety committee:
SB 53 (Ammunition purchase "authorizations")
SB 127 (Mental disabilities)

More to come... please see above thread for immediate updates.

For the bills still in the Appropriations Com, those can't move forward to vote this year correct? They'll either die in Committee or be voted out of Committee next year correct?

No all the bills listed are currently moving through various commitees mainly public safety and appropriations. Except ab169 and ab711 they are in suspence. but they only need 2 days to be put back into a commitee. I believe that all bills must be ready for the floor by Aug 30 or they stay there till next year, i think. If passed they move to the floor of the opposite house they started in. If passed its on to the Govenor.

TireMan 07-09-2013 12:59 PM

Thanks OP, much easier to keep up to speed on what's going. Much appreciated

SamsDX 07-10-2013 8:25 AM

OP updated with amendments to AB-48, which simplifies it to two main actions:
1. Ban standard capacity magazine re-build kits (including individual parts that could "convert" an existing <=10 round magazine into a >10 round magazine.
2. Reporting of purchases of 3,000 rounds or more of ammunition within 5 days to local law enforcement.

sufferingbastard 07-15-2013 11:58 AM

Thank you for the updates i do appreciate them greatly!

antiques2 07-19-2013 9:50 AM

Senate bills 47,53,374 and 396,567, 683, &755
 
Could someone give me a update as to pass,not going to pass on each of these bills?
I believe 396 has passed and if you wanna get rid of your hi cap mags-. the great of CA> will let you sell the problem to a FFL.?_!
thanks,Antiques2:oji:

jwkincal 07-19-2013 12:40 PM

This thread will tell you if any of those pass. It won't be for a number of weeks in any case.

SB396 has NOT passed. If you read the first post in this thread you will see the STATUS of each bill accurately depicted. SB396 is still pending in the ASSEMBLY PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE.

357cal 07-26-2013 6:30 AM

Hope all this crap get shot down.

SWalt 07-26-2013 9:28 PM

Thanks OP......excellent links and graphics!

Seems I read that though in suspense, these can be taken out of suspense by 29 August and passed out of Committee.

Then voted on the floor, last day for vote is 13 September.

Is that correct?


A few years back a number of us Calgunners were tuned in online listening to the session as it drew down, We were posting as things moved through.
There was one bill that was brought to a vote several times, they tried so hard to get it passed and failed.
They are only allowed to present a Bill once for a vote but it was presented several times against the rules. This sessionwas to close at midnight, it did not, it went long. Wife and I listened to all and went to bed about 1:30am.

Anyone remember that?
Have to go through the archives and dig it out.

Anyway, the lesson here is that these guys will do ANYTHING to get there baby passed. Since these Bills have been suspended in Committee we need to keep and eye on them.

Can we have a crowd at the last session on 30 August to witness?
