249 is on Thursday Schedule

[Guapoh]

Why do people declare victory without actually looking at the schedule of bills before the Appropriations Committee?

Here is the current list of actions as of 4:45 PM on Tuesday the 14th of August.

Yee's Bill No. 249 (Assault Weapons) is No. 5 on the list to be called for vote on Thursday. According to the Committee they are called in the order listed:

Some serious subterfuge going on with that "it's dropped" announcement. Wonder if Adam was behind that somehow?

what a mess...

[Sinestr]

I was told by Fuentes office it's been pulled and to tell everyone to stop calling ??

[Window_Seat]

I have been told by staffers in the CA Capitol that it takes time for them to make the changes to the Leginfo site. That said, I won't believe until I actually see it.

Perhaps a scare tactic to get opponents to stop calling/emailing?

I was told by a few assembly offices that the bill was pulled. My guess is that the website hasn't been updated yet. Or, Yee is going to try and amend it. What's killing SB249 is that the Appropriations committee said that a taking does take place because the bill makes changes to the penal code.

I am following some non gun related bills and the legislature is SWAMPED right now. This is a very good thing for us. I'm sure that there are some senators that want to approve this but time is not in Yee's favor.

It is not dead, keep fighting, but it is looking good for us.

They have until Midnight Friday to act on it. Celebrate on Saturday if appropriate!
