Yesterday, Senate Bill 433 passed the Indiana House of Representatives on an 85 to 14 vote. Now SB 433 is being prepared to be sent to the desk of Governor Mike Pence (R) for his consideration.
SB 433, authored and introduced by state Senator Jim Tomes (R-49) and sponsored by state Representative Jim Lucas (R-69), would repeal the section of the Indiana statute that prohibits the possession, sale, receipt, or use of short-barreled shotguns. These firearms are legal under federal law and regulated by the National Firearms Act of 1934. SB 433 would simply bring Indiana in line with federal law. SB 433 was passed in the Senate by a 44 to 6 vote on February 3, 2015.
Please contact Governor Mike Pence (R) and politely urge him to sign into law Senate Bill 433. Contact information for Governor Pence is provided below.
