"Well here they come---4 antigun bills from Olympia that will be heard THIS week!
HB1588--sponsored by state Representatives Jamie Pederson (D-43), Mike Hope (R-44) and thirty-six other state Representatives, would criminalize the private sale of firearms. HB 1588 is nothing more than a regulatory scheme which would create a huge burden for law-abiding citizens. It would require that anytime you sell any firearm to a family member or friend, you will have to go through a gun dealer or law enforcement agency and pay a $20 fee (tax), with no guarantee of timely processing.Additionally, while Concealed Pistol License (CPL) holders are currently exempt from having to undergo a background check when purchasing a firearm from a dealer, there is no provision in HB 1588 that extends the CPL exemption to private sales.
HB1676---sponsored by state Representative Ruth Kagi (D-32) and thirteen other state Representatives, is a so-called "child access prevention" bill which would single out the storage of firearms for criminalization under certain circumstances.
We already have a gun negligently stored law
HB1703--
sponsored by state Representative Laurie Jinkins (D-27) and sixteen other state Representatives. This bill would create a $25 tax on all retail gun sales to create a "firearm-related injury and death prevention program." It would also tax ammunition purchases!
and Senate Bill 5625--
state Senator Adam Kline (D-37). SB 5625 is a companion measure to HB 1588.
