Who knows anymore. Based on where I live, one of my reps (who supports said garbage) said there was no way it would pass. But I'm not very trusting with how little regard most Dems have for our 2A rights. Here was his reply...
Dear _______ --
Thanks for your message and for sharing your concerns regarding HB 1286, the companion bill to SB 5340. As the chair of the Senate Law & Justice Committee, I can assure you that neither of those bills will become law this year, and probably neither will even get a public hearing. By approving Initiative 1639, the voters have just decided that they would like to impose tighter controls on semi-automatic weapons, including enhanced background checks, an increased purchase age, and safe storage requirements. For the next two years, changing the initiative would require a 2/3 majority vote in both houses of the legislature, and there is no possibility that this will happen.
Best wishes, Jamie
