2022 Legislative Session Thread

[DataGeek19]

No there was not a requirement for a database in HB 1369 last year. That was NAGR BS.

And hopefully no one tries to stick such a requirement in. In my opinion discussions about doing so in past sessions really caused confusion and created excuses to kill the bill. Just say no to unnecessary databases!

Today, Tuesday January 11th 2022, is supposed to be the deadline for filing House bills, no later than 2:00pm. Are there any anticipated 'last minute' filings we should be watching out for?

Keep in mind that that's what "vehicle bills" are for....the "stem cells" of legislation. They can be amended into any kind of bill at any time.

So how are you at public speaking?

 

[KellyinAvon]

ALERT! There are more bills including SB 311 firearms matters (another ConC bill) from Erin Houchin (sponsored HB1369 last year.). More to follow

Why do we get multiple bills submitted for basically the same thing?

HB 1077 passed the House handily.... I didn't write down the vote, but I will be expressing my displeasure to my rep, who, though a D, is usually pro-2A.

On to the Senate!

Shockingly Campbell in West Lafayette voted Nay.

Eddie Melton

He's a state senator, right? Hasn't gotten to him yet.Just passed the IN house.

You're right he will be against it, but as JEB said he's in the Senate, write your representative as well. Can't hurt.

Worthless sack of voted no again. I hope someone runs against him in the primary.

My bad. Regan Hatcher. Same thing though. Guaranteed to vote no as well.

They have been written, emailed, and called even though it's a waste of time

 

[Jaybird1980]

Mine voted Yea!

Bill eliminating gun permits passes Indiana House

The bill would allow anyone age 18 or older to carry a handgun except for reasons such as having a felony conviction or having a dangerous mental illness.

Any hope the Senate will pass it this time? Or once again refuse to even let it come to the floor. Same republicans still in charge so not holding my breathe....then you got Holcomb.

 

[lrdudley]

Here is the roll call for HB 1077
What I find interesting is that one of the "Excused" Representatives is the Majority Caucus Chairman and two of the Republican "Nay" votes are Assistant Majority Caucus Chair persons

Start writing your Senators.
