Both houses of the legislature are scheduled to hold a full floor vote on “smart guns” and other legislation attacking law-abiding gun owners on Thursday, June 20, 2019.
The smart gun legislation, which swaps one legislative mandate for another and forces NJ dealers to carry at least one smart gun, has been fast-tracked for a vote in the full State Senate without even holding a committee hearing first (the normal process).
The move is an obvious play to temporarily roll back NJ’s 2002 smart gun law (a ban on the sale of every conventional handgun ever made) long enough to force market acceptance of unproven smart gun technology first, before re-imposing a conventional handgun ban. The move tips lawmakers’ intentions and virtually guarantees that gun owners (who would normally be interested in experimenting with the technology) will continue to ignore it.
Thursday’s bill list will be in flux until the very last minute, and one or more of the other bills heard in Assembly committee last week could still be scheduled for a vote in both houses on Thursday.
Accordingly, please immediately contact all member of the Legislature by clicking here. Tell them: (1) Vote NO on “smart guns” (A1016 / S101) – the attempt to swap one mandate for another will doom the technology to failure by pushing gun owners away instead of allowing interest in the technology to develop normally; and (2) Vote NO or to amend on the following bills (if they are scheduled), which either affect only law-abiding citizens (who do not perpetrate crimes and represent a threat to no one), or fail to protect honest citizens from wrongful prosecution under careless wording: A3696 / S2240; A5452 / S3876; A5453 / S3879; A5454 / S3897; and A5455 / S3898.
