This is a pretty straightforward amendment on 3 30 for

uh we did not cover 2021 the P

P

P expense allowance allowance

Mr Speaker

Thank you

The the Gentleman's Amendment will be returned to him members

because this is a material change to the bill

The second reading will not occur today

The chair that will make the bill back to first

so it will not be eligible now for its Second

amendment

Excuse me

Second reading as amended tomorrow House Bill 1 45

The core corinne

Representatives Adams Kidwell McNeil and Turner I spent 1 45

of its entitled night to protect the property rights and

personal subject to a domestic violence protective order allowing them

to store their firearms with or sell their firearms through

a qualified licensed firearm dealer during certain amount climbing back

representive Adams

Does the gentleman wish to send forth the amendment first

Mr

Speaker

I go ahead and introduce the bill and Cindy um

and very well the gentleman's recognized to debate the bill

Okay What this bill does It offers the option for

a defendant and a domestic violence uh situation the opportunity

to uh have his firearms stored or sold by qualified

federal federally licensed firearms dealer

What this will do the act

What this will in fact do is it will remove

the burden of local law enforcement storing these firearms and

holding onto him and accounting for him and inventory um

and that sort of thing

But what it does also recognizes that these firearms are

the property of the defendant and he has the opportunity

to either have his firearms cared for by federal firearms

license holder or sold by that federal firearms license holder

On the other hand he can leave them with the

sheriff if he chooses to and I'll stand for any

questions

I do have an amendment to small language change

Germans recognized the fourth amendment corporal reed representive Adams moves

to Mandeville on page two line 16 by the leading

the phrase immediate and on page two line 17 by

rewriting the lines degree jones recognized to debate the amended

what this amendment does

Uh when you talk about selling firearms immediately if it's

a $400 pump shotgun immediate might be one thing

But if it's $20,000 creek golf shotgun immediate might be

something entirely different

So it's just a matter of semantics

The other line is uh we just simply make a

remark in the form that would be provided to the

defendant uh that would include information concerning the defendant's rights

to recover the surrendered firearms machine guns or ammunition

Further discussion further debate on the amendment

If not the question for the houses the adoption of

amendment A one those in favor say aye I suppose

Yeah let's have it

The amendments adopted

We're now back on the build
