Friend,

The 2021 Nevada Legislative Session is in full swing! Tomorrow morning,
March 17th, at 8:00AM there is a crucial hearing on banning ghost guns and
keeping Nevada safe happening in the Assembly Judiciary Committee. This
hearing will be the first read of [ [link removed] ]AB286. 

AB286 bans ghost guns and the parts and kits used to make them. This is a
huge step forward given the popularity and ease with which some folks have
been able to get their hands on ghost guns. Essentially, ghost guns are
firearms that anyone can assemble with unserialized or “ghost” parts or
kits that they can buy online or at a gun show. They are completely
unregulated and because they are unserialized, they are untraceable. This
phenomenon has only worsened during the global pandemic as thousands of
people tried to buy firearms at an alarming pace. Many online retailers of
ghost gun kits and parts have reported such high sales volumes, that they
were sold out. 

AB286 also allows various properties across Nevada to opt-in to
prohibiting firearms on their premises. This means that hotels can finally
choose to disallow firearms on their property. Some of the resorts and
hotels in the Las Vegas area are supporting this legislation because they
understand how important this is. The bill will help prevent tragedies
like we saw with 1 October and it will help limit the excessive violence
we have seen on the Las Vegas strip in the last year. 

This bill is a step in the right direction for our state and it will make
our state safer overall. I urge you to [ [link removed] ]attend the hearing virtually and
