See OregonTruth.com for details.

TRANSCRIPT: "For the current short Oregon legislative session that was designed to deal only with minor issues due to limited public review, why is the docket packed with so many major issue?

Radio Spot #1: Gun Hold Law

UPDATE 2/2/2016: SB 1551 is dead... for now. Good job everybody! You made a fuss and the Democrats reacted.
Start Date: Feb. 1, 2016 - Listen here: Gun Hold Law
TRANSCRIPT: "A bill making its way to the Oregon Legislature can violate someone’s due process. How? This bill is intended to block someone from purchasing a firearm simply by the word of a relative, professor, employer, a health care provider, physician- without that person even being notified. This bill would violate the basic right of all Oregonians, ‘innocent until proven guilty’, especially without even knowing they have, ‘in effect been ‘charged’! Find out more at OregonTruth.com."

The bill is Senate Bill 1551, introduced by Sen. Lloyd Prozanski (D-Senate Dist. 4 - South Lane and North Douglas Counties). OregonTruth urges you to contact your Oregon legislators (find them here) by phone or email if you oppose this horrible bill. You might also want to help inundate Sen. Prozanski's email or Capitol Phone at (503) 986-1704. Read More......
