PASSES OUT OF SENATE COMMITTEE

AB 46

Though amended from its original version, AB46 does not go far enough in ensuring that innocent and law abiding citizens do not become inadvertently entrapped into becoming felons.

The bill in question, AB46 has language to force Nevada into compliance with the NRA backed Brady expansion bill passed by the US Congress in 2007.

GONV is opposed to AB 46 which is in the Senate. AB 46 would turn over thousands of private mental health records to the Obama administration with the express purpose of using them to prevent gun purchases.


The problem: GONV is regularly contacted by people who are unable to buy a personal defense firearm. They’ve done nothing wrong, but they’ve been wrongly added to the state POC (NICS) system and while they wait to sort it out they are defenseless and in fear for their life.

Many of the most recent contacts have been single women who are victims of stalkers.

How much collusion (read: Carson City rubber stamping) do we need between the Fed’s and the State before someone asks the question, “Why do we need state elected officials?”

We were not able to stop this bill in the Assembly so it is essential that you contact the Senate with the simple message, "DO NOT PASS AB46."

Our private records should not be turned over to an administration that has pledged to eliminate gun rights.

This kind of power will be used to make the government stronger and your gun rights weaker.

A sample letter follows that you may use when contacting the Senate. This is an urgent matter. Please pass this message on to others in Nevada that are gun owners. Please don’t wait.


“You do not examine legislation in light of the benefits it will convey if properly administered, but in light of the wrongs it would do and the harms it would cause if improperly administered.” —LYNDON B. JOHNSON

Dear Senator,

DO NOT PASS AB46.

Our private records should not be turned over to an administration that has pledged to eliminate gun rights.

This bill would not provide the needed due process and though amended from its original version, does not go far enough in ensuring that innocent and law abiding citizens do not become inadvertently entrapped into becoming felons.

OPPOSE AB46

Thank you,

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
