Louisiana House Committee Defeats Two Anti-Gun Bills

Monday, May 3, 2004

No gun control bills advanced out of the House Administration of Criminal Justice Committee this week! The committee defeated two bills—HB 147 (Gun-Free Parade Zones) and HB 245 (Gun Show Restrictions)—outright, and the sponsor of the remaining measures—HB 241 (Ballistic Imaging), HB 243 (Handgun Registration) and HB 244 (Ban on Semi-Automatic Firearms)—withdrew them from further consideration and declared those measures dead for the session. We expect supporters from the City of New Orleans to continue to push other versions of the Gun Free Parade Zone bills (SB 523 & HB 1222), so we`ll keep you posted! Thanks to all members who contacted the committee and who took the time to attend and participate in Wednesday`s hearings!
