Word is Castle Doctrine was voted out of committee 22-4, with the three gun control bills being voted down. Looks like we get a floor vote on Castle Doctrine! More details later.
UPDATE: Roll call vote here. PASSED 22-4 Looks like it was amended, but the amendment did not destroy the purpose of the bill. The result of the amendment is that you still have a duty to retreat against an unarmed assailant.
On the other bills, on creating a new task force in the AG’s office. FAILED 9-17.
To create an assault weapons ban. FAILED 6-20.
On gutting preemption. FAILED 6-20
We did it! On to the House Floor.
Congratulations. :)
Thrilling news! …It looks like we’ve hit for the cycle, in baseball parlance; thank you to all those who showed up at the plate and dared take a swing in this fight!
