BOSTON, MA – On Wednesday, August 28th at 10:00 AM in Room A-2, the Massachusetts Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security will hear a bill which seeks to legalize suppressor ownership in Massachusetts. S. 1417 would replace the current law that prohibits the possession of suppressors by non-manufacturers with language that allows private individuals to own and possess suppressors so long as they are not (1) prohibited persons; (2) committing a violent felony; (3) committing a crime of violence against a family member; or (4) possessing or selling controlled substances.
The American Suppressor Association has submitted written testimony, but we need your help! If you are a Massachusetts resident, please attend the hearing to show your support. Also, using the contact form below, please contact members of the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security and politely urge them to vote in support of S. 1417. Do this, even if you plan to attend the hearing in person.
