State Legislative Update: Take Action!

House Vote Today on Extreme Risk Protection Orders

Please call your Representative and let them know you support SB 719.

Talking Points:

  • Extreme Risk Protection Orders empower families and law enforcement to prevent gun tragedies.
  • Petitioners must show clear and convincing evidence the respondent is a threat to themselves and others in the near future.
  • This bill received bipartisan support in the Senate and it is important for the legislature to take action this session on gun violence.

Yesterday evening, HB 2355 End Profiling passed its first chamber.

We’re expecting it to pass the Senate later this week

What else to expect this week?
