What is H.R. 7115?l
The opening text is as follows:
"To prohibit the sale, acquisition, distribution in commerce, or import into the United States of certain firearm receiver castings or blanks, assault weapon parts kits, and machinegun parts kits and the marketing or advertising of such castings or blanks and kits on any medium of electronic communications, to require homemade firearms to have serial numbers, and for other purposes." You can find the full text here: https://www.congress.gov/115/bills/h...15hr7115ih.xml Think this doesn’t concern you because you don’t build guns? It does. H.R. 7115 will concern you because if it passes (Remember that the Dems took back the House: yes, the GOP still has the Senate and Presidency) because it’s Nationwide. Goodbye AR builds, goodbye Polymer80 handgun builds, goodbye enormous chunk of gun rights. It's easy to pick apart this Bill, but it's too long to bore you with the details. You should take it upon yourself to call your Representative. If you can, you should donate to the firearms advocacy group of your choice (and here I will mirror what a respected member of the industry said over the Summer: if you’re not part of the NRA you’re part of the problem. I may not love everything they do — I may even loathe some of it — but they remain our best chance of coming out of this fight at least somewhat intact, so suck it up, Buttercup.). The far left is picking a fight with an industry that counts its participants by the hundreds of millions. If close to half of Americans own guns (they do) and more than that shoot or hunt now and then, why aren’t we winning these smackdowns casually and without much effort? Complacency. The fight for our rights isn’t in 2020 or 2024, it’s here. Right. Now. |

The House may as well pass bills on approved colors for clown costumes. They have one job, approve $ 5.7B for the wall. Until they can do that, they are just monkeys, playing in their own excrement. No one cares, and whatever they do is of zero consequence.
Nothing happens until the get wall funding approved, which included taking taxpayer funded junkets around the world. |

I'm sure CNN will tell everyone all about it.
