Are the revisions to the bump fire language related to the same language that Scott signed into law being moved to the machine gun definition in a different bill?

I need you to take action and fight to make sure these bills pass the Florida House!
Florida’s legislative session started this week, and we have three solid pro-gun bills introduced in the House. And I need you, Florida’s gun owners, to fight hard and be loud! HB 17 by Rep. Dr. Joel Rudman repeals Florida’s mandatory waiting periods. If enacted, a gun buyer can take possession of their firearm as soon as the background check is completed. Yes, you read that right — no more waiting to take possession even after the background check is done. Rep. Rudman’s bill fixes that and goes a step further too. If the FL Dept. of Law Enforcement (FDLE) takes too long and doesn’t complete the background check within three days, the dealer can release the firearm. No more waiting around and having your rights delayed. HB 1223 by Rep. Bobby Payne restores gun rights for young adults. This bill restores the right to legally purchase a firearm for those who are under 21. Sadly, back in 2018, under the leadership of then Governor Rick Scott, Florida’s Republicans stripped young adults in the state from being able to legally exercise their Second Amendment rights. Again, HB 1223 fixes that and restores their rights. HB 1619 by Rep. Michael Beltran makes Florida a true Constitutional Carry state. This bill repeals the Open Carry ban and goes a step further; it removes several gun-free zones. These include polling places and college/university campuses. If enacted, Florida would join the 45 states that have adopted Open Carry. Currently, only Florida, California, New York, Illinois, and Connecticut ban it. In fact, Florida is the only Republican state in the nation to ban Open Carry, ban adults under 21 from being able to purchase firearms, and have mandatory waiting periods for firearm purchases. These three bills fix these issues and bring Florida to the same level playing field as other Republican states. I need you to contact the House Speaker and Governor and tell them that you will accept nothing less than these bills passing. It was because of your hard work — not only last year but in years past — that we got permitless carry passed for concealed carriers. And it will be because of your hard work this year that we will get these bills heard and passed. Please take action and let House Speaker Paul Renner and Governor Ron DeSantis know where you stand on these bills! In Liberty, Luis Valdes Florida State Director Gun Owners of America PS – Please share this alert and donate to GOA. Also, click here and read GOA’s latest article in the Orlando Sentinel, where GOA calls out the Republican leadership for the previous failures to advance pro-gun legislation. WUCF-TV/PBS said it best about GOA, we’re the only “no compromise” gun rights organization in Florida. What Does PBS Think Of Gun Owners of America In Florida |

DeSantis has never done such regarding 2A issues. He's stood before the media, doing multiple press conferences on other issues and demanded the legislature pass legislation. Home insurance rates, his fight against Disney, his fight against "wokesness," his anti-riot bill, etc... But never has he actually pushed for 2A issues. Only when cornered by the media or the public, does he say supportive things about gun rights. He only came out publicly on permitless carry and open carry because Matt Collins and myself got him on record at private events and gave it to the media. Prior to both cases,.he's been silent and he only became supportive after the media got it and questioned him on it. During the State of the State address. He paid lip service to gun rights. Every prior State of the State address he's silent on gun rights. Hell, he said gun free zones are bad and then got caught having his events be gun free zones in violation of state law. And tried to pin it on other folks, when email records showed it was campaign specifically wanting those events o be gun free, but wanted to shift he blame to someone else so the campaign doesn't look bad. |

JPT is dead on with that assessment, dead on. BUT, did you really expect other than that from and aspiring professional politician..........government, good folks, was is and remains the problem and JPT is right to hold DeSantis's feet to the fire. If he wants support he's gotta give it !!

How can Florida's Republican House Speaker, Rep. Paul Renner, claim to be pro-gun, while stating that HB 1619 (Open Carry) is dead on arrival and he won't advance it?
He claims that since his fellow Republicans in the Senate are against it, he won't waste the House's time advancing the bill since he believes it won't pass the Senate. Yet, as House Speaker last year, Rep. Renner had no problem allowing Rep. Bobby Payne's bill advance when he knew Senate President Kathleen Passidomo was against it. What was Rep. Payne's bill? It was the bill that would repeal Florida's under 21 purchase ban. House Speaker Renner had no issue wasting the House's time last year with Rep. Payne's bill. But suddenly, he's conservative and worried about the House's precious time this year. Sorry, that doesn't fly Mr. Speaker. Be honest with Florida's gun owners. Let HB 1619 advance in the House! Let the Senate Republicans show their anti-gun colors. Stop covering for 'em. This is an election year, let there be recorded votes on where Republican lawmakers stand on Open Carry. By smothering the bill, you're protecting their voting records and allowing Republican lawmakers who are anti-gun keep "clean" voting records so they can campaign that they're pro-gun. FL House Speaker Paul Renner says HB 1619 (Open Carry) is dead on arrival. 1/11/2024 |

When was the last time you saw a Democrat Speaker of any state house call a gun grabbing bill DOA? It's so tiresome to have these alleged pro-gun Republicans have to dragged kicking and screaming to have the same gun laws as any other Republican controlled state.
Here's Speaker Renner's contact info, which needs to have the phone lines ringing off the hook to get things to happen: https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Representatives/contactmember.aspx?MemberId=4619&SessionId=103 Capitol office: (850) 717-5019 District office: (386) 446-7644 Email: [email protected] He represents District 19 - St. Augustine and Palm Coast being the two big cites, in Flager county. If you live in that district, your input would be highly valuable. It's one thing for people in the rest of the state to holler at him - it's far better if his own voters do. And to contact your own House Representative, use this web page: https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/FindYourRepresentative Contact them please by phone at both the Capitol and District numbers, and email them too. Say you want them, if they're a Republican, to co-sponsor HB 1619. Open and campus carry were passed in my old home state of Texas in 2015, to dramatic prophesies of Wild West gun slinging, and shootouts in various history classes debating Andrew Jackson being denied the presidency in 1824. None of that happened, any more than it did in the 80's with Florida first passed the concealed carry law. |

This morning on the Bob Rose Show on 97.3-WSKY; I was discussing Florida's Republican House Speaker, Paul Renner killing the Open Carry bill (HB 1619), while he claims he's pro-gun.

DeSantis dropped out. I'm going to fucking hammer him on 2A issues in FL now.

Do it JBT! keep us informed on anything we can do to help you keep pressure on him.

We aren't pulling our punches. That's just the start too |
|

DeSantis said this yesterday when he dropped out:
"We can't go back to the old Republican guard of yesteryear -- a repackaged form of warmed-over corporatism -- The days of putting Americans last, of kowtowing to large corporations, of caving to woke ideology, are over." That is what's exactly happening and been happening in FL with gun rights. If he stays silent, you know where he stands. |

Made the news today in four separate stories.
Residents across the state have complained for years about errantly fired bullets from home shooting ranges striking them, their family members, belongings or pets. But they already have legal recourse, according to Luis Valdes, Florida State Director for Gun Owners of America. Speaking to the panel Tuesday, Valdes pointed to Florida's "deadly missile" statute, which provides that any person who "wantonly or maliciously" shoots into a building, vehicle or aircraft is guilty of a second-degree felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison. "We already have laws on the books," he said. "Adding more to it and simply outlawing the ability for people who use their property in a safe and responsible manner is a violation of our rights." https://floridapolitics.com/archives/655985-property-rights-bill-banning-stray-bullets-avoids-being-shot-down-at-first-senate-stop/ But Second Amendment supporters insisted that it was unfair to penalize young people from being able to purchase a gun when they're allowed to perform other duties that require maturity. "Floridians under the age of 21 can be law enforcement officers at 19," said Luis Valdes with Gun Owners of America. "They can enlist in the military. They can even run for offices as lawmakers to make laws. The fact that the state has determined they don't have the mental capacity to own a firearm is ludicrous, when we entrust them with the very authority to carry a firearm and enforce that very law." https://floridaphoenix.com/2024/01/30/parkland-family-member-says-theres-no-good-reason-to-repeal-age-limit-to-purchase-a-firearm/ It should be noted, however, that there are some bills that would expand the rights of gun owners in Florida that have also stalled in the first part of the 2024 Florida legislative session. One is a bill (HB 1619) by Hillsborough County Republican Rep. Mike Beltran that would allow people to openly carry firearms in Florida. The measure would also allow lawmakers to carry concealed guns to legislative meetings and in the state Capitol building. House and Senate GOP leaders have not shown any enthusiasm about scheduling the bill, but Second Amendment groups are pressing Gov. Ron DeSantis to back what is known simply as "open carry." The state chapter of Gun Owners of America sent an email to its followers this week, calling on them to press DeSantis to endorse the proposal. "Florida's gun owners are not fools and we don't become easily tamed with cheap table scraps thrown our way. We demand a full restoration of our rights," reads a section of the letter penned by Luis Valdes, the Florida state director of Gun Owners of America. https://floridaphoenix.com/2024/01/26/families-of-gun-shooting-victims-are-hoping-for-some-preventive-measures-from-fl-legislature/ Gun rights activists, though, said the bill merely affirms the rights of young adults, who can join the military and become a police officer, to own long guns. "The fact that the state of Florida has determined that they don't have the mental capacity to own a firearm is ludicrous," said Luis Valdes, Florida state director of Gun Owners of America. https://floridapolitics.com/archives/656067-bill-lowering-rifle-buying-age-to-18-clears-house-panel/ |

Now that I'm settled, I'd like to get out to committee meetings to testify.
Unfortunately I missed the Jan 19 meeting. What's coming up that needs comments/testimony? |
|
|
Yes besides contacting the Governor, what steps should gun owners take to move pro-gun bills along?
Supposedly Constitutional Carry wasn’t going to happen in Texas in 21 due to a lack of Senate support. 6 months later it’s signed into law, due in large part to the efforts of individual gun owners who testified at the Capitol and called their elected officials. |
|
|
Any news on this? I haven't read or seen much since this was filed.

Those provisions came out of the Feb. 14, 2018 Parkland school shooting that killed 17 students and staff. There’s HB 1223, which would lower the age to buy a long gun in Florida from 21 to 18. As was the case in the 2023 session, the House bill is moving, but it’s not going anywhere near Gov. Ron DeSantis, who would have to sign such a law. There is no Senate version. Another GOP gun repeal measure also looks doubtful. The proposal (HB 17) would require the mandatory waiting period for all firearm purchases to expire after 3 days, regardless of whether a background check has been completed. This measure has support in the House, and DeSantis told CNN last month while on the presidential campaign trail that, “I think the background checks should be instant.” (The governor has suspended his presidential campaign.) However, the Senate version has not been pursuing the measure. And Second Amendment advocates are not at all pleased by the developments. “You have a Republican House Speaker state that he and his Republican colleagues don’t have an ‘appetite’ to debate and vote on open carry. You have a Republican Senate President state that repealing the under-21 purchase ban is a ‘non-starter’ Yet both have the nerve to campaign that they’re pro-gun,” says Luis Valdes, Florida state director of Gun Owners of America (GOA). Valdes and other Second Amendment aficionados are also steamed at DeSantis for failing to push for an open carry law which he said he supported a year ago. That measure (HB 1619) was introduced at the beginning of the 2024 session by Hillsborough GOP Rep. Mike Beltran but was immediately dismissed by Republican leadership last month. “GOA got him on record where he said he ‘absolutely’ supports open carry,” Valdes says. “Well, actions speak louder than words and the governor’s inaction is deafening.” https://www.gulfcoastgunforum.com/attachments/423062812_397741596197648_8257963084789167738_n-png.272351/ View Quote So what should we do to help move the bills along, besides "call DeSantis"? |

Right now, you have Republican leadership saying the bill is DOA and Gov. DeSantis being absolutely silent about it. The House Speaker and Senate President are term limited. Wasting time calling them, pleading with then, etc is just that. A waste. DeSantis promised he'd support Open Carry. He's done jack shit and he has something to lose. Sure, he's term limited too. But he doesn't leave office until January 5, 2027. That's a long time for him to rebuild his image for 2028. And he wants to do that. Right now, is the time to hammer him on 2A issues. Because if you let him slide on it, he won't do shit for the rest of his time in office. Hammer him that if he doesn't keep his promises on the Second Amendment, he's done and no one will support him for 2028. He only supported permitless concealed-only carry in 2023 because he needed a pro-gun feather for his campaign quiver. |

Sorry to say it but I am increasingly of the belief that your character call of the man as an opportunistic politician ain't too far off base.................and I REALLY hate to say that!

that's an awful lot of goals crammed into one bill. I hope it passes, but as was mentioned, as long as the GOP anti gunners that control the process shoot down these sorts of efforts, I don't have much hope.

Repealing Under 21 Ban passed House. Senate refuses it.
Repealing FDLE's abuses of the background check system passed House. Senate refuses it. Open Carry refused by both House and Senate. Governor DeSantis silent on entire issue. Only "pro-gun" bill that will reach the Governor's desk is SB 1286. Which passed both the Senate and the House. Arrestees can now petition to get their guns returned to them after 30-days if the firearm wasn't seized as evidence and they aren't barred from possession of a firearm. This is "good" in the sense that we (GOA) as an organization experienced a member being wrongfully arrested (FL PATRIOT ARRESTED FOR EXERCISING 1A RIGHT TO PROTECT 2A RIGHTS ) and he had to fight to get his gun back. But the reality is, out of the hundreds of thousands of arrests, very few are in that situation. SB 1286 is stale crumbs being thrown at gun owners. And Governor DeSantis has broken his promise to gun owners. He said he'd back a bill if it was introduced. He's done jack shit. |

Today on the Bob Rose Show, the host questioned Sen. Blaise Ingoglia about the failures in the legislature regarding the Second Amendment. The host used all my talking points from yesterday's interview.
https://www.audacy.com/podcast/bob-rose-show-8686d/episodes/positive-conservative-momentum-in-fl-legislature-with-sen-blaise-ingoglia-4ce9f?action=AUTOPLAY_FULL&actionContentId=201-2a5592aa-fbb5-44a2-a27b-1432fcc622d4 Sen. Ingoglia admits that Republicans are weak and leadership only wants to maintain the supermajority. So they kowtow to the weakest Republicans and keep them happy. He also claimed that DeSantis works behind the scenes. Which further solidified my stance that DeSantis doesn't lobby for gun rights since nothing is happening on gun rights, but other bills are moving forward. |
