<p style="margin-bottom:1em;"><span>W</span><span>hile law-abiding citizens are preoccupied with keeping themselves and loved ones healthy, anti-gun legislators advanced unnecessary gun control legislation, House Bill 4.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:1em;"><span>Instead of using the time left</span><span> in the shortened session </span><span>to assure the well-being of their constituents</span><span>, d</span><span>elegates hid behind closed doors and passed the long gun transfer ban without public input. House Bill 4 now heads to the desk of Governor Larry Hogan for his consideration. </span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:1em;"><span><a href="[link removed]" target="_blank">House Bill 4</a> bans the sale or transfer of long guns between private individuals without first paying fees and obtaining government permission. Firearm sales between friends, neighbors, or fellow hunters </span><span>would not be exempted. Research shows this proposal will have no impact on violent crime in Maryland.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:1em;"><span>This legislation is unenforceable and makes it more difficult for individuals to exercise their Second Amendment rights. It is abhorrent that anti-gun legislators would use the current situation to secretly rush gun control policies to the Governor’s desk instead of upholding their duty to help prepare their constituents in a time of need.</span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:1em;"><strong><span>Again, it is important that you contact </span></strong><strong><span><strong><a href="[link removed]" target="_blank">Governor Larry Hogan</a> </strong></span></strong><strong><span>at 410-974-3901 and ask him to stand with Maryland gun owners by VETOING House Bill 4.</span></strong></p>
