Defend the Second Amendment in Maryland!
As one of your constituents and a supporter of Gun Owners of America, I am asking that you OPPOSE the following anti-gun bills that infringe on my Second Amendment rights:
HB 387 — Imposes an 11% tax on firearm sales by licensed dealers, both within and outside the state of Maryland.
HB 937 — Doubles the sales and use tax rate for sales of firearms, firearm accessories, and ammunition from 6% to 12%.
HB 1287 — Bans any semi-automatic pistol that COULD be converted into a machinegun. This legislation is worded ambiguously enough to potentially include ALL semi-automatic pistols.
SB 444 — Would require all firearms turned in at gun buyback programs to be destroyed.
HB 1050, and its companion bill SB 943 — Requires firearms to be surrendered to law enforcement when responding to domestic violence protection orders. Prohibits possession of firearms for the duration of the order. Creates additional "Task Forces" aimed at further justifying disarming of Maryland citizens.
Additionally, I ask that you SUPPORT the following pro-gun bills:
HB 354 — Reduces penalties related to wearing, carrying, or transporting a handgun without a permit. Maryland had previously increased penalties for carrying a handgun without a permit (the Gun Safety Act of 2023). An example under current law is that if one person illegally carries a handgun in a car full of others, every individual in the vehicle can be arrested and charged. HB 354 would prevent Marylanders from being guilty by proximity.
HB 353 — A constitutional carry bill that repeals the requirement for a handgun permit and allows those over the age of 21 to wear, carry, and transport a firearm. This bill should be supported with amendments that would also include the right for 18 - 20 year-olds to wear, carry, and transport a firearm as well.
I am asking that you defend my Second Amendment rights outlined in the United States Constitution. Gun Owners of America will keep me, and our other Maryland supporters informed of how you choose to vote.
