Yesterday, the House voted 56-42 on the bill’s final passage, to concur with the Senate on House Bill 1240 (Text of the bill; NRA explanation). HB1240 is a comprehensive ban on most commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms and firearm parts that exceeds the provisions of California’s ban.
The ban will include repair parts for your firearms.
It will now go to Governor Jay Inslee’s desk for his signature. Please click here to contact Gov. Inslee and ask him to VETO HB 1240.
Suggested text:
Please veto HB 1240. It violates the citizen's right to be armed in defense of self and state. This right is guaranteed in our state constitution (Article 1, Section 24). Our guns are for our defense.
