MICROSTAMPING (AB 1471)
http://calnra.com/legs.shtml?year=2007&summary=ab1471
This bill would, commencing January 1, 2010, expand the definition of unsafe handgun to include semiautomatic pistols that are not designed and equipped with a microscopic array of characters that identify the make, model, and serial number of the pistol, etched into the interior surface or internal working parts of the pistol, and that are transferred by imprinting on each cartridge case when the firearm is fired. (More info and talking points against the bill available at the above link.)
MANDATORY SPAY/NEUTER (AB 1634)
http://calnra.com/legs.shtml?year=2007&summary=ab1634
This bill would prohibit any person from owning or possessing any cat or dog over the age of 4 months that has not been spayed or neutered, unless that person possesses an intact permit, as defined. The bill would establish an intact permit fee in an amount to be determined by a local jurisdiction, and would require the revenue from these fees to be used for the administration of the local jurisdiction's permit program. The bill would become operative on April 1, 2008. (More info and talking points against the bill available at the above link.)
Today, AB 1471 and AB 1634 were voted out of the Assembly Appropriations Committee; next stop for both is the Assembly Floor. Please contact the members of the Assembly and urge a NO vote on AB 1471 and AB 1634. Assembly contact info is available here:
