It is possible that the following bills will be voted on today:
SB 789/790 - CPL reform:
Summary:
* Abolish county concealed weapon licensing boards.
* Transfer the duties of the county boards to county clerks with some duties going to the courts.
* Require the MSP to conduct investigations of CPL applicants as to eligibility.
* Give civil immunity to clerks and law enforcement entities if a CPL holder later commits a crime or negligent act.
* Allow an applicant for a CPL renewal to certify that he or she has completed educational and firing range requirements (and the county clerk could not otherwise require verification of the statements in the certification).
* Decrease license and renewal fees (from $105 to $90).
* Require each county to establish a concealed pistol licensing fund.
* Allow county clerks to take fingerprints of applicants.
* Establish a hearing process for suspensions and revocations.
* Allow the subject of a PPO for domestic violence or stalking to receive a CPL unless the order includes a restriction that the applicant is not allowed to purchase or possess a firearm.
* Change Michigan's OBLIGATION TO IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY police regarding our carry status upon being stopped to a RESPONSIBILITY TO DISCLOSE UPON REQUEST.
SB 964, 965, 966 and 979, the Senate components to the Air Gun Reclassification Package, reclassifies them as pneumatic guns instead of firearms. We will once again be able to order them online or buy them in the local hardware store without jumping through any hoops. Michigan is only one of TWO states that has these ridiculous restrictions on pellet guns. The most ridiculous restriction? Currently you HAVE to have either a pistol purchase permit or a CPL in order to buy a pellet pistol with a rifled barrel. These bills will do away with that.
SB 977, allowing active duty service personnel to renew their CPL via US mail.
Contact your representatives (NOT senators - these bills already passed in the senate) TODAY and urge them to vote for these bills!
