Urgent Congress Still Pursuing Gun Control - Newest Bill - HR 5611

Date: 07/5/2016

This is a fast developing situation on expanding the denial of owning a firearm because you or I are on some kind of list.  The latest version of the attack on our 2nd Amendment Rights is embodied in HR 5611 (HB 5611 on FOAC Site) and it contains many flaws.  Some of the worst problems are identified below for your review and consideration.

Problems identified in this proposal:

  • Guilty until proven innocent
  • Secret lists still determine one's rights
  • Denied individual still fronts legal fees
  • No provision for discover making a legal defense difficult at best
  • No right for defense team to discovery
  • No right for defense to file emergency/expedited petition
  • Language connects 922 g & n thus expanding the scope of the reasons for expedited denial
  • Nothing in this bill would change what happened in Orlando and is a solution in search of a problem

Unless these problems are corrected we cannot support this legislation.

Please contact your Congressman and tell them to oppose this legislation until these issues are addressed and 'no' American is put through the requirement to 'Prove' their innocence to the government.
