From govtrack.us : This bill is in the first step in the legislative process. Introduced bills go first to committees that deliberate, investigate, and revise bills before they go to general debate. The majority of bills never make it out of committee.
While this is still in the committee phase, it is another bill aimed at banning 'assault weapons'. Personally, I find it absurd. The phrase 'Shall not be infringed' seems fairly clear to me, but other people don't see it that way.
If this does make it to the General Debate, we should definitely contact our representatives. If you call or write to any senators or congressman and encourage them to oppose "H.R. 1022: To reauthorize the assault weapons ban, and for other purposes", let them know that you think they should oppose it if it comes to the floor.
Let our government know that this ISN'T how we want ourselves to be legislated. If we talk, they will listen.
