The speaker explains that under this bill, individuals moving to California with their firearms, including military personnel and those relocating for work or family, could be classified as importers. This redefinition could lead to these individuals automatically becoming criminals due to a lack of clear communication and enforcement mechanisms for new residents bringing their legally owned firearms into the state.

The Biden administration has implemented sanctions restricting the permanent importation of Russian firearms and ammunition into the U.S. This policy, effective September 7, 2021, is a response to Russia's alleged use of the Novichok nerve agent. The sanctions are expected to exacerbate existing ammunition shortages and price increases, particularly for affordable brands like Tula and Wolf, as U.S. manufacturers may struggle to fill the gap. The sanctions are set to remain in place for a minimum of 12 months and can only be lifted if Russia meets specific conditions, which the speaker deems unlikely.
