RI: GUN CONFISCATION Bill Being Heard TODAY – TAKE ACTION
House Bill H8073 is scheduled for a House Judiciary Committee hearing today at 4:00 PM.
In 2025, the state passed a law focused on stopping future sales and transfers of certain firearms. H8073 goes much further by targeting possession itself, meaning firearms that were previously owned legally could now become illegal to own.
The bill only extends the previous grandfather policy through the end of 2026. After that, owners would be forced to sell their property through a dealer, remove it from the state, or face felony charges.
This is not about public safety. It is about forcing compliance by threatening otherwise law abiding citizens with criminal penalties for keeping what they already own.
Lawmakers are moving quickly, and this hearing today is a critical moment.
This is an unacceptable step towards unconstitutional gun confiscation, and it must be stopped.
Contact the committee members today and demand they vote NO on H8073.
