Not sure if everyone seeks this out regularly, but it's VERY important to know what these special snowflakes in the assembly and senate are up to these days. For those who aren't keeping track, I've made a list (from the direct listings of the assembly website) of some of the bills I've found so far for 2017 and tried to colorize it. If anyone else has any suggestions on things I should change, please let me know so I can update / add to the list or change priority.
If you can spare a minute, please make sure to read the list and spread the word.
Highest impact bill of the moment: S00470 (microstamping bill)
Anything purple isn't specifically firearms, but seems like it might wind up having an impact on your rights.
Anything in blue is firearms in general.
Anything in yellow is of medium importance.
Anything in red is, in my view, high priority.
