Legislative agenda for week of May 12

[gunpoliticsny]

Every year a bunch of Republicans ask to have some of their pro-gun bills placed on committee agenda. These are then voted on by the committee members and blocked from advancement along party lines. They do this to pander to 2A groups. This year will be no exception.

• A-2547, Relates to suspension and revocation of firearms licenses; relates to private sale or disposal of firearms, rifles or shotguns; establishes a minimum age to possess a firearm relating to gun control. No companion.

Ostensibly so people don't have to go through the BGC every time they buy ammo. This is the GOP's idea of "compromise."

It will be much easier if they just tattoo bar codes on our foreheads.
