Oregon Hunters Need To Take Action




		Oregon Hunters Need To Take Action
		Hunters who reside in the state of Oregon are urged to take action both for and against current bills pending before their local elected officials. The following information is provided by the NRA: HB 2529, the NRA-backed "No Net Loss of Public Hunting Land" bill, was heard in the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee this week. Please continue contacting committee members and urge them to support this important legislation. Agriculture and Natural Resources Membership: Patti Smith, Chair Brian Boquist, Vice-Chair Arnie Roblan, Vice-Chair E. Terry Beyer Chuck Burley Mark Hass Mac Sumner Two bills sponsored by gun control extremist Senator Ginny Burdick (D-Portland) may soon be on the move! SB 335 would allow local school districts to gut the state firearms preemption law and ban the possession of all firearms by Concealed Handgun Licensees for any reason on school property, or where any school-sponsored event is taking place. SB 954 is a gun-tax bill, which aims to make up shortfalls in parts of the state budget on the backs of law-abiding gun owners. It increases the fee for fingerprinting a Concealed Handgun License applicant (from $15 to $22) and for transferring a firearm under Oregon`s instant check system (from $10 to $25). Please contact your state senators and urge them to oppose SB 335 and SB 954. For senate contact information, please visit www.leg.state.or.us/senate/
