RI: “Assault Weapons” ban advances, House vote set for June 5th

The “Assault Weapons” ban, which was heard yesterday, advanced from the House Judiciary Committee and is scheduled for a full vote before the House on Thursday, June 5th.

This fight isn’t over yet, and we can’t lay off even for a moment if we expect our Second Amendment rights to survive.

Our efforts to stop this bill have been immense, and we need you to continue hitting the phonelines to DEMAND your legislators stop H 5436 from passing.

When speaking to a Representative or their staff, you can say something like this:

“Hello, my name is [NAME] and I’m from [TOWN/CITY]. I’m a member of Gun Owners of America and a Rhode Island voter and I encourage you to vote NO on H 5436 when it comes up for a vote on June 5th. Gun Owners of America will keep me informed of how you vote.”

You can find your State Representative by using this tool from the Rhode Island Department of State: Find my legislator. If you already know who your legislator is, you can use the House directory found here: State of Rhode Island General Assembly.

Reach out to your legislators immediately using the form above and demand that they STOP H 5436!
